> [@Intergalactic\_Gladiator](#): > > I thought it went from around $409000 to $249000 but I admit that I may have my numbers off (money is such an inexact science). Also, don’t forget you get Herman as well, so he’ll help you pay for the new build. You will need a training dummy if you want Herman to have a 1 hour task. > [@Joey\_P](#): > > It was $349K when I first started paying attention to it, it may very well have been $409 when you first noticed it. It’s $249K now though. > Either way, I’m still holding off, I just don’t feel the need for it at the moment. Ya know what, now that I think about it, it was $249K when it became available to me. I just remember it was ‘more money then I’ve ever had at once’, but then about two weeks later I blew past $249 and since for the last few days I’ve been in the 300-350 range I was thinking it was $349K. My mistake. ---

If anyone is interested, I have over 30 characters currently doing actions that keep them out in the open, not disappeared indoors. Everyone but Apu and pimply teenager, who are on quests. Anyway, I always wanted to see everyone active and I have it for the next several hours. Enjoy! ---

I’ve finally been told to build Burns Manor, but it’s going to be a few days before I can get the cash lined up. I spend a lot on my Squidport and I’m not sure that was the best decision. Oh well. ---

I was very concerned that the 4th of July stuff was over first thing on Monday morning, as I hadn’t completed the Rocket’s Red Glare quest. I finished it today and still got the Liberty Bell. This makes me happy. I am building Zesty’s now and then I think I am all caught up on quests until they launch a level 31. I am kind of glad to have the time to devote to Squidport and build up some cash reserves. ---

I am kind of glad to have the time to devote to Squidport and build up some cash reserves. Yeah, I still got he liberty bell as well. I put it by the church and it kind of looks like a church bell. Oh, and it’s 9:40 AM here and I am logged into Origin and on the game now. By the way, apparently yesterday’s update did nothing. I wonder if it prepped an update for later this week. ---

Oh, and the rumor is that level 31 is coming very soon. Free up all your people in the next day or so and save up cash. Just speculation, but heads up. ---

Per [TSTOTips.com](http://tstotips.com/2013/07/10/aaaaaaaaannnnd-were-back-on/), there was a server error and things are back up. I just converted my row of cheap brown homes into summer cottages along the waterfront. I think it looks pretty cool (and I totally admit to ripping it off from the above mentioned site) but I also have to remember that I moved them for monies collecting purposes. I now have an undecorated spot where the houses used to be and I’m thinking of converting that into a park and moving my smaller, existing park over to it. ---

I got home today and a fireball on the electric lines took out the power to our neighborhood. Urge to kill rising… ---
