Think to buy 200 Land Deeds

Hey all,
I think to buy 200 land deeds, it's a lot of money for Me.
But last 2 years the MA was under zero in income:/. They are borrowing 6 000 000 dollars from players, in high %. (Think better borrow from bank, not from players and pay them 25% per year - it's not cheap for MA)

You think is it safe to invest to MA? And players have a guarantee of their founds in the game?

As it is a lot of money for you i would not advise risking it here, Investing in EU is probably a med/high risk factor, for the reasons you said. Although Eu will probably be here for the next 2-4 years, after that as it is now, it does not look good.

They don't "borrow" the money, they sell you a share of planet calypso - that's quite a difference (i.e. they won't guarantee that you get your investment back, the only way to do that is selling your shares to another player - for whatever they will be worth that day... could be 0 PED, could be 10x what you paid)

I recomend put this money in roulete on red colour.
Risk is about the same, but in case of success, in roulete your get your profit much faster (in minutes, instead of years). Additionaly in casino you get a free drink.

When it is more than you can afford to lose my advice is: Don't do it. If you can bear the risk: Give it a try

You can never say that peds = realy money, because you never have the a 100 % guarante that you can withdraw the money. It's a good investment if you want peds, the risk is that MA can't pay you in realy money when you want to withdraw it. 200 land deeds are too much if you not have a lot of money already and are not afraid to loose it.

Like with RL shares (not implying that CLD are shares), only invest want you can
afford to lose.

If MA doesn't go broke in the next couple of years; you'll do a good investment,
but if they do, you'll lose.

The real question, which you already where implying is: will MA survive long
enough?
The answer is unknown; hence the slow selling of deeds. If it was 2005, they
would have sold under a month. Currently the bad economy IRL, and the
distrust in MA by the playerbase are what keeps them from selling.

Also, any new planet is new competition for Calypso; and while few are/will be
succesfull; competition still means less spend on Calypso.

The answer lays somewhere between the risk you want to take and the
future of Calypso.
So, it's up to you: do you believe in the future of EU?
