Years after WOW.... an interesting update.

Well you can set up a bank... get everyone to put their money in it, then lend everyone back their money 3-4 times over with exorbitant interest rates.

Then when everyone can't pay their loans, you can confiscate their property, and receive a big check from the government so you can continue to fuck over your countrymen.

Thats not a bad deal is it?

Damn, what about this.

Create a giant scheme where I infiltrate my way up to the top of the corporate ladder over a period of several years. Then at some arbitrary point, take over the entire corporation, make it so that no one can access the assets that the corporation had, then take those assets, sell those assets, pocket all the money and run. And do this without the knowledge of anyone else until they realize that they have no more assets.

Then hire bounty hunters to go after said douchebag to kill him over and over and over.

I have a 1 year old daughter, and she never sees me play wow. She goes to bed around 7:30, and like I mentioned before, I raid 2 times a week from when she goes to sleep until 12 or so, never later than 1. It works for me, I don't get stressed and I can manage my in-game activities so I always have tons of gold (I log in before I go to work for 15/mins a day to do auctioning). I'm currently up to 100k gold with nothing to spend it on other than flasks. I make all of my own gems and do all of my own enchants.

So to add it all up, I play about 2 hours a week for auctioning/transmutes/jewelcrafting, and 10-15 hours for raids. While it still sounds like a lot, none of it interferes with my time with the baby. If you can't pull yourself from the game and it feels like an obligation that is cutting into your family time / social life like people are describing, then you guys are doing the right thing by quitting.
