How much in game dollars have you spent on the online beta? No cheats or noobs that pay for gold bars

Hello. So I Haven't seen many threads on rdr2 in regard to the online beta. It would be cool if there was an online leaderboard for freeroam Showing in game stats. And then I wondered who had grinded the game the most financially without any cheating. I've managed $18700 since I started playing. Anyone made 30k?

I think the $$ amount is all relative, it needs to be accompanied by the hours in game for example, so if a person made $18,000  in 120 hours and another made $12,000 in 40 hours the $12,000 would be the more impressive number.

So I think to get a real feel for it, you need to include at least time in game.

So, folks with hundreds and hundreds of hours vs folks with fewer can compare and break it down to a $ per hour ratio.

 

I am not in game right now, Ill add mine later, even though I am only level 26, a total noob,  and have fewer than 4 days in game, my dollar per hour ration could still compete with someone that has tens of thousands of dollars already, it isnt the total it is the amount per hour average in game that matters over all.

As well as total over all, that is still an interesting number by itself just to see who spent the most in game but it doesnt paint the whole picture.

If someone isnt particularly good at grinding for money but they have been in game since day 1, they could have accumulated a lot of money and spent a lot also, but I think it would be interesting to see it both ways, how much over all and how much per hour.

I just was able to read the comments on his thread, lol

I didnt catch the noob thing til now.

I think his point wasnt to insult people, I think what he meant, is lets just see who made and spent the most in game without buying gold with actual cash, only in game earnings count, for his idea.

I think he may have worded it in a way that caused some hurt feelings is all.

 

I have no problem with folks buying gold with cash, to each his own 100% 

 

some folks cant invest 500 hours into the game but want to play with their buddies and on the same level so, I get it.

Others just want to get gold lol and I get that too more power to ya for sure.

and hey Rockstar definitely wants you to buy gold, lol.

 

Anyway again, excluding those who purchased gold since you can just buy as much as you want, the point of the post I think, is who earned and spent the most in game from grinding and playing only, no purchased gold.

And my point was who did it at the highest $ per hour in game earnings, and who spent the most in game.

 

So for example, 

Player A made $80,000.00 in 250 hours and spent $76,500.00 with that info we can get an average $ per hour earned in game.

Player A made an average of $320 per hour in game over all, thats pretty high and obviously fictitious, I made it up for an example.

 

This is why you have to exclude anyone who purchased because obviously that didnt take time in game to earn, so it wouldnt count in this particular comparison.

I still think it is an interesting idea to see who did what and how long it took them and what it breaks down too.

Who has the most impressive grinding skills?

Who earned the most per hour on average over all?

Ill figure mine out later and add it here,

Im curious now,

This is all just a moot point since GBs will never equal in-game cash and are not tied to it.

If you or the OP just want to talk about money (in-game cash) earned, spent, etc., GBs are irrelevant.  ...."n00bs" spending money on GBs is irrelevant

Yeah it means nothing,

Especially Gold bars, I was more interested in simply cash earned, not gold. as gold comes in many ways.

Although you could compare the same data.

it was just an interesting point, who is earning the most per hour in game compared to others, maybe a certain technique over another makes a differece.It doesnt matter how long you have been playing, it all averages out, so in my case for example.

I have 3 days 22 hours in game, thats 94 hours in game, I have a total earnings of $7,635.64, which means my average per hour earnings are $81.23 per hour in game on average.

Ive earned 11.85 gold bars in that same amount of time, which breaks down too, .126 gold bars per hour in game, lol not very high.

Anyway I apparently make around $81 an hour in game on average over all , some days I dont earn hardly anything and other days all I do is earn, but the average is $81 an hour.,

Cash earned per hour $81.00

Gold bars earned per hour in game, .126

Total time in game 94 hours.
