dCity Investments - Let’s analyze the best earning dcity!

The best earning dcity by far is @themightyvolcano’s dcity. He is not number one in the rankings, but in contrast to the number one he actually has SIM income. A huge amount of SIM income. So what can we learn from his dcity?

The first thing I noticed when looking at his dcity is that he has no unemployment costs. His 4000 unemployed population is covered by Social Aid Offices. He has got 50 of those, and they are not cheap!

Currently he has 1 scientist and 1 worker, which probably have been trained yesterday. But he seems to be selling all citizens. When I look at the prices for citizens on the market, then I think that most of them are a bit overpriced in comparison with a Basic home or Luxury home. Perhaps this is the reason why has sold them.

A second thing that is very interesting to see is that he hasn’t got any Basic Homes or Apartments. He only has Luxury homes. With his popularity rating he has a massive population bonus, so he doesn’t really need the extra population. And the Luxury homes that he does have 1683 of, do give way more income per population point. It looks like he is really heavily focussed on maximizing his SIM income.

After Luxury homes his next highest number of 1st generation cards is 1293 Shopping Malls. Shopping Malls can get robbed ofcourse, but not for too much and they have a nice income/worker ratio. Also they are not as expensive as Banks on the market.

Then he also has 1154 Factories, which are great to make sure that all his population have a job. Factories take 40 workers, so that is about 4500 jobs. His 1042 Zoo’s and 799 Circusses help with that as well.

He also got 1118 Weed Dispensaries, which along with Restaurant’s, of which he has 1089, are some of the best earning cards in the game in relation to their price on the market. For smaller dcities they are great, because they need only 10 workers for 10 SIM income, which is a great ratio.

Obviously he has a lot of Cynema’s, Gym’s and Police Station’s to reduce crime.

What is interesting is that he hasn’t got many 2nd generation cards. He has maxed out his Education rating for discovering Technologies. He has 1 Hospital, some Law Firms, enough Job Centers to get 99% training chance for Homeless and Immigrants. But other than that he does not seem to focus on any 2nd generation cards as big money makers.

I might be wrong here, but it looks to me that he has calculated that he can get more SIM income from 1st generation cards than 2nd generation cards. I think that when he got the relevant 2nd generation cards, he switched back to buying 1st generation cards.

So what does this bring him in terms of income? 116482 SIM. Which is at current prices about 518 Hive, which is about $127 income per day. That is without the Hive rewards he gets for being high in the rankings. This is 58 hive, which is almost $14 per day.

So he currently earns over 140 USD from this awesome game dcity! And not because he has a sponsor contract with Nike or a gaming studio or something like that.

He just invested a huge amount of money in dcity and is now receiving the rewards. A yearly income of 51000+ USD!!! And he is still growing it...

This to me shows the ultimate power of decentralized gaming.

Before you all start throwing your money at this game though, make sure you realize that it is still in beta and relies heavily on one man @gerber.

So this is not investment advice and you should do your own research. So invest only what you are willing to loose.
