$1500 - To get Chipper by putting in sell now orders. Never paid buy it now price for any card & never bought a single pack.
regardless if youre wealthy or not. paying $1500 on top of the game itself, for a team that resets every year in a game that barely works just seems dumb
You are certainly entitled to your opinion & maybe I am dumb. But it is what it is...I’m in my 40’s & have worked my [censored] off in life to have a disposable income so I can afford nice vacations, nice toys & yes - A kick [censored] DD team. I have no regrets & honestly it always makes me laugh when my opponents pause the game to send me hateful & jealous messages regarding my team - That in itself is worth the $1500 lol

Ahhhh the pocket watchers out in full effect.

I bet you could do it for under a grand. I have gridned and spent 100 bucks. I have AL West and AL central complete, I also have teams that are fully collected in the AL East and NL central but just need the one or two diamonds that go into the set. I have not worked the market at all. I have not spent any stubs on packs either.

I dont think those stimulus checks are meant to pay 2 win in this game

I wouldn't know. I don't qualify for a stimulus check. Biden's new tax plan sure does suxor though.
Can't believe I missed this thread yesterday. Flexers, NMS jelly guys, guys with no money that think they have it, people saying they are NMS but actually do. It's like a buffet.
Back to the original question. This year, the number was $1100. I have a custom league obligation and had some very early expensive cards I wanted to groove with. TBH, it could be done for under $900 or done with NMS if you play the market all day every day.
In the end, it doesn't matter though.
Regarding the flexing though. Siesta Key and Aston Martins don't impress me. especially on a message board. Want to impress me? Show me a picture of you donating $10k to a local food bank, writing a tip for $5k at a local restaurant, or slapping down your AMEX black at the jewelry store to pay for a strangers engagement ring that he was talking to the salesperson about a layaway plan. Saw the article about Shaq. The man knows what's up.

This is kinda what I was trying to say earlier without trying to sound like I was virtue signaling. I'd much rather spend my money on something important rather than a video game that means nothing.

Collections are behind a paywall. You can grind this game all you want but your not beating someone with Chipper and the rest of those annoying (censored) unless the guy your playing sucks.

See I respectfully disagree. Who's to judge what people do with their money? Dropping $2k a year on this game brings me joy. I've been making money for 30 years. Nobody except my wife is allowed to judge me on what I do with it.
When you go out to a bar, you are spending 3-5 times more on a drink than if you had it at home. Going to a game that you could watch on TV. Same thing.
It doesn't and should never matter what internet strangers do with their own cash regarding stubs. TBH, if people didn't buy stubs, you'd have no market.
It's all useless flexing, arguing and banter.
One thing everybody on all sides can agree on. Money can't buy you time. I spend $ when I don't have time. Why? Because I want the cards. It's my game and I'll play within the parameters offered.

Oh I also live on Siesta Key though if you really want to get into finances
Not my fight, but your narcissism is showing. Literally no one would be offended by a finance comment, except a narcissist who thinks money defines human status.
Sorry man, that's tough, but it's not your fault. Mom didn't love you, but others do. I'm available if you want to chat, as you said. But the truth is, you are ASKING someone to help you. Signed, a Ph.D Psychiatrist that deals with your type daily.
Use that cash to get help, we love your money
Dude if you're a PHD then I'm a leprechaun. GTFOH with that. You might be one of the biggest tools on here.. This whole post is so sad and cringe all the way through...

Would be a waste of money regardless of how much you have... go for it.

Tbh i really dont care if people already have chipper. Most of the time the people that pay for their whole teams are usually garbage. The one thing I will say is if you have the best possible team from so early on where is the challenge. But to each their own

I don’t give a sht what y’all do with your money. Rent a midget riding a donkey for all I care I will still think it’s stupid af though
-
I don't understand why leople care so much about this kind of thing. Some of you trying to call people out for spending money on a video game prob buy cigarettes and beer regularly. Like people don't spend their money in silly ways sometimes. Perfect example... I bought a new firearm last weekend and my neighbor sat there smoking a cigarette that costs $11 a pack trying to tell me i was silly for spending $1200 on a gun... Don't judge what people do with their money. You don't know their lives

Not trying to be argumentative here. I am really trying to understand.
Why is it stupid?
Stupid is such a blind term regarding this because you are passing judgement on what somebody else is doing.
Whether I make $25k, $100k, $500k or am retired. Why is it stupid?

Exactly. To me, the fun of DD is building your team from rewards and random packs and doing the best you can with what you have. If I bought my team I would have no reason to keep playing the mode - I would have "beat it" so to speak.
However, like you said, to each their own I guess.
