Economy/Investors

Could it be possible that there would be an update where there would be investors? like for example: you make a deal with an investor(a villager) that will boost your profits from your shop for a certain amount of time. but the investor(villager) will get a certain amount of money you make. and it doesnt have to be just for shops. it could be for anything.And maybe (very small chance) we could have meep insurance

I like the general idea, but this could be abused really, really, easily. All you would have to do is create 2 private chest shops, and then have a friend buy and sell items for a ridiculous price, therefore being able to keep all of his money, and give the shop owner lots of money.

Example: If the investor gave you a 1% bonus....
Sell 1 Dirt 1,000,000= 1,000 Profit

Methul, you have a great point. the investment would cost meebles which would be the villager at spawn. for ex. he will give you a 10% boost but would take 20% of all sales at shop(until profit boost run out)

Methul

So how would this make you money if he gave you a 10% boost but took 20% of your profit?? The fee would be greater than the revenue...

So how would this make you money if it cost you 20% and only gave you a 10% boost?

gr1ff09

if you spend on a 10% boost and he gets 20% if you make 1 mil because of the boost he gets 20% of that and you get the rest

Methul

How would this be beneficial? You would make 10% and lose 20%... Overall you would lose 10%!

gr1ff09

you dont lose 10% if you make 100,000 and it gets boosted by 10% you get 1,000,000 and they get 20% of the 1,000,000 you make of the boost. they get 20% because they give you the 10% boost to help, so they get the 20% of 1mil

Methul
