Playing this game has brought back memories for me too, and I've started watching the old episodes again (one of my cable channels has been showing them on weekdays, and I've been seeing things I forgot about but are in the game). I like the extra money we get from visiting neighbors too, even though I get over 3 Million just from my house farm, and the free Donuts are great too (even though I did seem to be getting fewer than the 1.5 per day statistical average).

I'm used to the buildings costing more in the higher levels, but some of them are a bit much, especially for those without house farms and/or a big Bonus Percentage. I have plenty of cash, but for those that only pull in 100,000 or less per day the 1 million plus price for Honest John's Computers will be a bit steep. I know some people don't want to devote a large chunk of land to a massive House Farm like I have, but even just creating a small suburb with a dozen or two blue or white houses can make a big difference, as well as spending some Donuts to get some Jet Engine Bikes to get your bonus percentage up (there are plenty of premium decorations that boost your payout, but none beat the Jet Engine Bike for value, and it's fairly small and can be placed anywhere but the water, I have 120 of them on my beach and some on my Squidport Boardwalk).

Even just upping one's bonus by 10 percent can make a big difference in the long term as it increases payout on jobs and revenue from buildings. I leveled up as fast as I did not just from the house farm cranking out money and experience points, but getting more money and XP from everything. Once you get to 100% you get double the money and XP, and now that I have my bonus up to 900% I'm getting 10 times the normal payout. I spent just over 1 million to buy Honest John's Computers, and once it was finished building I received just over 1 million XP (instead of the usual 105,600 XP).
