Billions in Cash - nothing I could possibly do with them. Am I alone?

...and all despite never grinding them Credits.

I feel like I should.... *hmm*

- employ 120 NPCs that do my daily routine or just buzz around me for kicks or pure companionship
- rent a Farragut Class Capital Ship and use it to Hyperjump into random places into the Galaxy, then explore 100LY all around it just for fun
- buy a few more Federal Corvettes and put them into Mining/Exploration roles just for lulz (wait I can't... Garage is full since almost a year already, got 3 Vessels parked "out of town" due to Ship storage limitations)
- head over to the UC offices and buy an entire uninhabited System 500LY away to Terraform and Populate it?
- maybe build me a small, secret Extraction Empire 2500LY away with a dozen NPCs hauling my Hotspot precious back into Colonia or the Bubble to sell it?
.

- or realize I'll soon own 3... 4....5...7....10 Billion Cr in Cash I realize I have absolutely no use for at all?

Serious question : what's the point?

I'm getting close to that. I think it just means I don't need to worry about getting credits and I can have anything I want. I'm free to do anything I like in the game.

I'm kind of there having bought all the ships I want and having over 1B cr is spare change + expensive stored items like prismatic shields, its just one of the many glass ceilings in Elite.

At first it's cool ( having billions ). But when you have everything you want.. it tends to get a bit dull. I just jump in every now and then to poke around, and maybe try a new ship or build.

Triple Elite + Rear Admiral + Prince + multi-Billionaire = Idle Rich = Bored

The point is to see how rich you can get... No I'm joking, I agree, no point in going much past a billion, there should be things that make it worth it.

Oh tried that one in the past. Didn't work.

Last time I tried, I wanted to share a 35M Wing Mission. Guess what no takers. Noone even responded to Comms *shrugs*

I have nowhere near that, but I have more than I'll ever use for new ships (being a minimalist, I think I sell more ships than I buy, LOL). It did dawn on me that now I can do those "crazy things" with my more expensive ships and not have to stress about the rebuy any longer.

If I were still playing in Open, I'd go somewhere popular and jettison the most expensive cargo I could find - like when the queen used to throw coins to the peasants. It would be fun!

L2P ;) I always make sure I get rid of excess cash so I don't end up is this position. I thought only n00bs still thought CR mean anything in this game, the recent Opals rush makes me wonder...

This spaceship game needs a lot more than 35 space ships with more stuff to buy for them and maybe some pre-engineered modules at high prices.
