my own Q1 house cost me 555 THBs when I bought it. Offcourse back then gold went for 500THB a pop, so the prices might have gone down since (the government is burning money to cause deflation= lowering of prices).

anyway, seeing how there aren't any houses we can just start at 500 and look where that takes us.

I'm willing to work with either of our companies (as I have both gift and Housing exp), however I must warn you that Housing needs the most initial capital (Q1 houses need 200 work units to be built. with 1.6 skill, and wellness in the high 80s, I produce 3.3 units per day).

P.S. about buying out the competition: if they're selling the company, that means they are not able to run it at a profit, they were probably not much of a competition to begin with. The good thing is that it sill has 362 THBs in it's coffers (for salaries), which would have cost us and aditional 4.7 gold if we bought it on the market, bringing the total cost down to but 36.3 gold. (but we don't want people to move away,so...)

I am interested in investing too. Only have 5 invites for now though.. and no gold. I have seen people set up some sort of holding account, so the company can be owned by may people. Is this something that should be looked into?

oh, most definitely. Everyone agrees SOs are the most efficient way of managing a company (with the notable exception of Scorpian)

Yeah, I'll consent to forming an SO, only because I don't want to manage the company by myself.

EDIT: As for reconciliation, it's likely not going to happen, at least not with Rody.
I'm listening to Rody and mr. brodie talk, and they referred to us as "Zach's thugs", so meh. To complicate matters even more:

Rody-Obama/Biden '08 says:
so Zach won after d ban but Luis still d leader
Silent-LONG LIVE UNICEF (the offical UN charity for Children) says:
True, but it would mean that Luis lost the election
Silent-LONG LIVE UNICEF (the offical UN charity for Children) says:
And I believe it was 5 votes to Luis
Rody-Obama/Biden '08 says:
but the game itself still rewards him
Silent-LONG LIVE UNICEF (the offical UN charity for Children) says:
Maybe the admin needs to do something in the game code to fix that or not
Silent-LONG LIVE UNICEF (the offical UN charity for Children) says:
Maybe it takes time. Or maybe not
Rody-Obama/Biden '08 says:
the admins wotn listen..they told me only till next election now..
Rody-Obama/Biden '08 says:
since v1 is comin out..they will not chnage d beta code..d only way now is for the next elections
Rody-Obama/Biden '08 says:
u know that Luis can choose some1 to be mayor...tell Zach that.cuz maybe Luis can help him become mayor

EDIT2: New Housing Company, this time in the amoral economic powerhouse of Romania. We need 80 Gold to buy the company, but it already have 2 export licenses, so we can sell to other markets if need be. Don't forget 25 Gold for our very own stuff. The problem is that Romania's currency is pretty strong, meaning that its imports are going to be pretty expensive for us.

This is a cheaper Housing Company in Romania, this one cost 60 Gold but has no export licenes, so the first one is a better deal.

The cost for 1 Quality House in Romania is 336.532 THB.

I'd be willing to switch my meager Food experience to Housing, and in fact had put up my CV in that domain yesterday. I also have 4 invites and 1g, FWIW.

And in the context, shouldn't we be Zach's goons?   :P ;)

[e] I got a job offer in the Housing domain, at the same salary of 4 THB per day I had in Food, so I've really nothing to lose and will make the switch for the greater good.

you can neither buy an oversees company, nor work for it-we'd all have to move.

Oh well, wish I knew that before.

Anyway, regardless, it is likely more effective to just build a Housing Company in Thailand by ourselves. Only 40 Gold. We can spend 25 Gold to gain import liceneses and import houses over to other countries with higher exchange rates (so as to get them interested to buy our stuff)...

EDIT: GAH! Not only are there no Food being sold in the marketplace, a Housing Company came in with a 2 quality House for 1589.50 THB!

ok let's pool our stuff (just post how much you want to invest, and I'll tally it all here):
SO's invite gold:5
A1s:20 gold
Servant Corps: 5 gold
olemars:5 gold
E. Albright: 1 gold and 200 THB
_____________
total: 36 gold, 200 THB.

1 gold will be assumed to be worth 100THB for purposes of figuring out everyone's share.

5 Gold willing to invest here. I suspect that any profit I'll made is more than enough to buy one of the homes I'm making.

I can invest my meager 1g and, say, 200 THB.

(When I immigrated, someone was selling THB at a 1 THB/0.003g exchange rate, so I have well more THB than I "should").

Don't know about the food shortage - I must say it kinda worries me. Especially since I just bailed out of the Food industry into Housing. I personally have enough stores to see me through almost a month without starving, but my wellness will suffer if I can't score some more Q3 grub within a week.
