Its funny how my perception of being poor changed after i joined codex. While I played legit, poor = 500k or less pure. Now I feel poor at anything less than 5 mil. I recently spent everything I had to buy an MSPP lend and realized how hard it is to rebuild without np generator...whoops:whistling: have to make do buying low profit high volume and waiting as i dont really have the nps to buy higher ticket items...

[likerobots]

it's definitely more than 1b.

[Strategist]

it's definitely more than 1b.

with a total maxium of roughly 4,294,967,294 NP.

obviously....

[rzerox]

I would consider 1M or less classified as poor.

[Yung]

I would consider 1M or less classified as poor.

That feels incredibly low and poor to me... I have at least 10mil per shell. Items that cost 800k are fairly common now.

Being on Neocodex and a part of this community only goes to further the thought that massive amounts of Neopoints is normal.

I think that 10mil or less pure, 50mil or less in ETS, 100mil total value (including HTS), would be the norm as per what would be considered poor considering how much we all average weekly and how quickly, or slowly, we burn through our Neopoints.

[Mirailecious]

If I can't afford a baby Paintbrush (600k) then I feel poor

[Stitches]

The most I have (and have ever had) on one shell in pure is ~3m, on my main right now I have less than 1m. Ever since my old main was frozen I haven't AB'd more than a few hours a week, and only log into shells once every few days. Even though I only use shells to cheat with a VPN, safe buy times etc, I still can't get past the fear of having my main connected to them and iced again. If there was no NC on it I wouldn't care, but there is, so... yeah.

Anything under 1m I feel poor. Nothing compared to you guys

[jargon]

Probably when I dip down to 10m.

[mobster281]

I have 10 mill and still feel poor

wouldn't 9,000 millions be 9 billion?

kinda curios as to how much interest the bank would give you when you max it out. Also... i don't play for neopoints anymore. when i was playing legit i would save my neopoints like crazy. Once i started being not so legit and started to make neopoints left and right they stopped mattering as much. Now i play for items. I buy expensive items i like and hoard them in my safety deposit box so i can sit there and look at them.

http://www.jellyneo.net/?go=bank has a good bank interest calculator punch in 2147483647 and 12.5% interest. Not a bad daily figure for letting your NP sit there doing nothing.

Once you max out the bank, you would get no interest.

This is true.... I forgot about that part :|

i still want to know why on earth they picked that number. Cant TNT do anything right? why not 2.15 Billion flat? the 7 at the end is what pisses me off.

They didn't pick the number. I would have thought that obvious to even the most dimwitted of readers

[DeathKnightX]

It's a very special number:

Anyways, poor = whatever amount you have.

But really, I think advanced members have a much different definition of poor than regular members. I've been playing for a month now and I still don't have 1 mil, because it's so hard to AB stuff and there's also the pesky rarity restriction.

[SecretFaerie]

As I've started playing Neopets again 3 days ago(after 9 years of absence), having 1m is in my opinion super rich!

I have around 200k at the moment, my next goal is 500k. With some help of Abrosia

[SammiSwagg]

I have about 50k on me and 250k in the bank, but I just bought a pair of pbs for my pets, and I've only been at it a month. I want to have at least 10 mil by the end of the year.

[Nonexistent]

Took me like three weeks to get a set of secret laboratory map, and then I'm back down to around 400k, below 300k is poor for me lol

[Scot]

If you have less than 100m you should start visiting the soup faerie

[James]

If you have less than 100m you should start visiting the soup faerie

[Nymh]

If you have less than 100m you should start visiting the soup faerie

Oh dear! You have 11,247,567 Neopoints! Only really poor people (under 3,000 NP) can get handouts at the Soup Kitchen.

You ass

[Kass]

Anything less than a million is poor for me, which means I'm poor lol I just started to AB though and it seems to be working out pretty good

[Adam]

I feel VERY poor, even with 20 mil under my belt. I think that there are 6 set values/groups for me, or this is how I judge people at least:

• Poor, anything less than 30 mil.
• Alright, anything around 100 mil.
• Good, anything around 900 mil.
• Sweet, anything around 9000 mil.
• Rich, anything around 90,000 mil.
• OMF rich, 1billion. (1million million, for those that view a billion as 1 thousand million.)

I'm really confused about everything after #4. Espeically #9..
On a different note, I consider anything below 3mil poor. I've never had more then 15mil in my bank / on hand before so anything passed that is $_$ for me

[annddd]

what's the "exact interest figure" when you have 100m in your bank? "always wondering that"
