The "Concierge Service" looks almost as good as cash, as long as you want something $3000+. Maybe I could get Stars to remodel my house.

This is intriguing. If I ever get to Supernova, I'm gonna ask for $3K worth of Amazon gift certs.

I think one of the nice things about this VIP program as opposed to rakeback is that you can spend money without the gubmint knowing that you made it.

Wonder if you can just request $3000 worth of gold each time you reach a specific FPP amount. Easy to sell and you lose almost nothing in value.

Default Re: Pstars FPP musings - Best Value?

I was loking for the best value combination in the program.

If Porche value is $60k and it takes 3M FPPs, then FPP value to buy the car is $.02. Playing $5.50 S & G earns 3 FPPs. With the Supernova status it earns 10.5 FPPs, which is $.21. The fee is $.50, therefore it amounts to 42% RB.

Anybody can beat this?

Technically, you have to report the gift certificate and any other "benefits" received as income!

Good luck to the government trying to figure out if you didn't. Maybe if you show up is a new Porsche, you'd get caught since you have to register it ect. But I can't see much else being a problem. What are they going to do search your house and demand you tell them how you paid for a TV or a new monitor? You might have to pay taxes on live tourney entries too.

By the time you earn enough FPP's for the porsche by playing the $5.50 SNG's, the Porsche will no longer be worth anything as we will all be driving around in hovercrafts.
