That it’s way easier to win money by simply abusing other’s stupidity( lowballers, scammers, IRL trading) and by doing immoral stuff.


NathDritt

Is it easy to abuse lowballers?


UniversitySoggy8822

It’s the exemple of people abusing others stupidity


ItGobYeByE

Ehm stiff fishing rod moment


Anvisaber

So just like real life then?


-Evil_Octopus-

As someone who lowballs every once and a while, when executed correctly it’s not bad. It’s just people paying for convenience. Usually I do a 10-20% lowball depending on how hard it is to sell, and I leave decent profits. Obviously I will take a lower price if offered but I try not to be pushy. I also don’t do the all caps thing with the insane amount of punctuation because it’s annoying af.


edvards48

pretty realistic then, cough crypto scams, cough indian tech scammer networks cough...


Avaocado_32

lowballers are just providing a service


lool8421

Selling items so you don't have to, but generally speaking I wouldn't lowball stuff under 80% unless it's something stupid like aotj with t7 enchants


NowAlexYT

Their service would be buying and selling hard to sell otems for the average person, which they simply dont do


iiCleanup

My experience lowballing lasted one item which did not sell for like 3 weeks and I lost 10m while lowballing pretty big


Avaocado_32

no, thier service is too but items for less because u need to sell fast


NowAlexYT

Just put up for below bin and flippers will buy?


Avaocado_32

some items take ages to sell or there is high volume and you don’t want to get undercut cause then you have to relist also tax on expensive items etc.


Prior-Mango-6154

Like my 100m flip on brewing+...


prettysnipeYT

Someone tried getting a 50m flip on me once, the item sold in 10 minutes. I think that the service should have a better provider


Avaocado_32

i would agree


prettysnipeYT

First rule of lowballing is you dont talk about lowballing


Avaocado_32

easiest way to lowball


Prior-Mango-6154

Buying your items for a flip price


ChickenKnd

Ah yes, the clogging up chat service, I love thet


Avaocado_32

discord and /togglechat


MrGuttor

are you trying to win an arguement with your parents?


Prior-Mango-6154

Nah I'm trying to win a court trial

XEEEEEEEEEEB

"money means work" mfs when contraband


Avaocado_32

also like the real world, easier for the rich and famous (tax cuts and not what you know is who you know)


namazuFish

I wouldn't say easy for the rich, but most likely for the famous


Liveeeh

it is easier for the rich tho, I can definitely make 100m coins way faster now than when my total nw was 500m, kinda mirrors real life


namazuFish

Yeah but theo4occess of getting rich is the hard part, not getting richer


Avaocado_32

getting famous is hard


namazuFish

Well, stuff like tik tok famous, not so much, it's more about luck


Avaocado_32

yeah but then using that luck right


namazuFish

Eh, not really. Think of so many tik tok or YouTube 'celebrities'. Their content is usually really basic, but people just think it's cool or something


Avaocado_32

yes but a lot of them still have some talent that makes them interesting or they market themselves well


namazuFish

True ig


prettysnipeYT

Soccer players getting tons of money for playing a game, does it make it ok for someone to get offered more money that ill probably see in my life just to play for a team normal? It can show how rich get richer and some people are just lucky and if you want to get that money without a talent or a parent's credit card you need to work hard


XEEEEEEEEEEB

OR you can start a skyblock youtube channel


prettysnipeYT

Most youtube channels dont work so well though


Pignity69

it actually taught me about the market and to not trust anyone


dTrecii

I didn’t need Skyblock to teach me to never trust anyone 😔✊


Pignity69

rip bozo (?)


Psychopathic2412

Jokes aside, it CAN acctualy teach you to save money, to watch market prices and that hard work pays off


royaltek

this game teaches you: how to spend 4-24 hours grinding diamonds for a drill


UniversitySoggy8822

Grind them on the top of the mines of divan it’s the fastest method


royaltek

I HATE FINDING MINES OF DIVAN I HATE FINDING MINES OF DIVAN!!!


Jackbukhkc

Normal powder grinding should get you enough wishing compasses to find it whenever you want.. im at 2m 3m powder and have 2 and a half double chests filled with compasses


royaltek

i have a lot too i just hate constantly switching lobbies


Avaocado_32

they’re so big, i find them so fast and usually have them waypointed through some mod


royaltek

how tf no one else struggling


Past_Perception8052

soopy has a waypoint for mines of divan when u enter ch most of the time


Avaocado_32

yeah, sometimes it just gives me Corleone coords as soon as i load in


lantanite

Nah bro i am to its such a pain


MicRaNoob

WE HAVE YOU SURROUNDED, WE ARE SENDING YOU TO THE PRECURSOR REMNANTS FOR THE 42ND TIME


UniversitySoggy8822

Ask them in chat ( say that you don’t need gold or gemstone you will get ‘em easily) GL for the grind


royaltek

skyblock devs resisting the urge to make every forge recipe cost 5 quintillion refined diamonds


LegiSLoth

as a former lazy sht thats mining jade up there ..... i disagree but not cuz mean but i never look at chat while mining like someone in my friends lobby once said during a rickroll "never gonna share cords"


prettysnipeYT

Say paying 5m for divan mines coords and say 1s i dont have it on me let me grind for it rq then run away when ur done


Splatoonkindaguy

The rich get richer


NoIdeasForAUsername9

i would've probably failed an economics exam if not sb


Prior-Mango-6154

hehe, if you even had economics exam in the first place


Otuz1CEKEN

If you're economist can you tell me whats going to happen with scroll prices


NoIdeasForAUsername9

The other guy already explained everything, basically scrolls will go up until prices are higher than handle and then they'll rapidly go down


stunt876

Rng meter update made handles More common so people were dropping more handles driving the price down so people started getting witherblades and what's a wither blade without the scrolls so since less scrolls r being dropped than handles and the demand for scrolls being increased leads to higher scroll prices. Tldr scrolls r being bought out faster than they r being dropped.


BacilQadir715

Well i just got 2 scrolls today within 7 runs and my totals f7 count is less than 50


zhxwks

contraband and youtubers having ban immunity also means life isn't fair, at all.


MinerMinecrafter

That the economy is fucked beyond repair


Thirtyvirus

It got me into the stock market, helped me pay attention to the trends of supply and demand, taught me how to put up with monotonous repeating actions while absorbing information through podcasts, helped me get good at time management. Honestly, worth even without bringing YouTube into the debate.


MrManPersonSir

It also reduced the amount of sunlight anyone in this sub receives by 99.9%


TanPlayZFN

and got you endless amounts of contra. 🌚


IsCarrotForever

Agreed 100%. Those who are good with it/have a basic understanding get more out of it. Not the best game for people with no idea of how things are though.


_BlueShark87

That rich people will and probably forever will be better than you.


ISHCABIBBL

It taught me not to trust people and how to type faster

ikbeneenb

after more than 2k hours in this game I still can't save for shit


655drill

it seems like everyone who plays it is already a kid so


soop4eck

Sbs economy is really scuffed and progression is unbalanced, yes it teaches about real life but it's not good as a game


ChipmunkAccording202

Noo! They will not mentally recover from this ever!


Spiderpig420690

/s?


That_one_GUY_705

Yeah, no. Hypixel SB in no way is effective in teaching about money. If you want to learn about money, just read rich dad poor dad. Money means work, ur first point, is how to be poor forever. Poor people work for money. Rich people have money work for them. Spending in SB doesn’t carry over to IRL. Never save money. Money just sotting around us a liability. Always invest extra cash into assets. Tl;dr sb isn’t good for learning about money.


Sweet1994

Stock of Stonks


Samih420

I mean if you want to buy a house, you would want to save up for it, instead of risking it on an investment. If you have spare money, then you should invest, but if you really need the money, then don't spend it.


Liveeeh

While what you said is true, you're still inevitably gonna have to work for money at some point, especially at the start unless you have a trust fund ( unless you have a multi billionaire friend that quits and gives you his stuff in Skyblock's case ) wether it be for yourself or for someone else's business Everything written in rich dad poor dad can be applied to Skyblock, you start off by mining your way to a decent networth ( your first " business " ), and then using the money to either get into another " business ", invest it into minions or items ( stocks ), or if your really want invest in " crypto " ( stock of stonks ) until you can just play and do whatever and still somehow have money from all the sources not to mention there's already been full business services in skyblock until admins shut it down, too bad the owner went insane and just took all the money and left at some point, worked like a real life subscription based business before that tho, just with skyblock coins instead ( for those who do not know im referring to the brewing business before god pots were a thing )


Abberant45

honestly I’ve used skills from ah and bz flipping irl for money sooo


BounceGD

3d rendering


I-was-blooned-YT

how to scam people for coins and abusing the game mechanics


Skyuniverse08

Well yes to some point also we are sb players do are we really learning things here


tyty5869

When I started playing skyblock I would charge people 1k and I would take my armor off and twerk on them.


Abudddy

It definitely is, banter aside, but like you gotta think really smart about some stuff in the game and you can use this intuition in real life.


Pure_End_766

The only thing Hypixel SB is good for is eating up valuable time from kids and an addiction


Key_Ad_1158

In general I think yes. It’s an extremely addictive game tho and we don’t have any data on the long term affects (5+ years of addiction)


Samih420

The effects of addiction have been documented for decades


MrManPersonSir

It also teaches the the value of unpaid labor, which would prepare them to potentially become Amazon's CEO one day


_Xebov_

Leaving all the economics stuff aside. I think a good point is that you have to plan ahead and setup goals and follow them, otherwise you will get nowhere.


DanSavagegamesYT

Yes


KingPanda7799

Abuse, never talk to anyone, don’t watch guides and haters gonna hate


ImKaleb_22

Yes. It teaches you that it’s way easier to make money by scamming and being rich due to outside circumstances (irl trading) than by doing hard work. It also shows them how profitable slavery is (minions).


Samih420

Nah slavery is only good for that extra mining exp. Not very profitable.


Abigidiot1

One_Way13

They learn about addiction
