Interest paid on money in the bank

[wONKA'S BUBBLICIOUS]

Suggestion Title: Interest paid on money in the bank
Suggestion Description: The interest would only be paid when you're on the server.

Why should this be added?:
- It's realistic and would help players build their wealth the more they play.

What negatives could this have?:
- It probably would need to be capped at a certain amount to prevent disproportionate wealth from being generated.

What problem would this suggestion solve?: It would solve the grindy nature of creating wealth on the server. It would allow players to feel comfortable with their money, and not have to worry about it getting depleted quickly.

The server needs to take more money out of your pocket rather than putting more into it as getting money is not an issue.

That may be the case for players who have been on the server for years, but is certainly not the case for new players, etc.

So for new players making money is fine. However this interest system for players who have millions would be disastrous. As there aren't enough money sinks already

Your point is not really clear. New players and old players would both receive interest on their funds, but the amount received would be capped, e.g., if you have more than 1M, you cannot receive interest on anything higher than the million (i.e., a cap).

The amount received in interest could even be tapered. For example, below 1M you receive 3% interest, above 1M you receive 2%, etc.

My point is incredibly clear it's not hard for new players to make money. And for players with millions this just exarcibates the proliferation of money

your suggestion doesn't contain anything...
How often do you get paid? Exactly how much? Are the funds frozen for X time while you gain interest? What stops someone from passing someone 50m so that they can gain interest money if the first player is unable to play during a time of day or reached a cap? What about players who can AFK during all early morning and night (server doesnt kick for afk unless full).. Does org money account get interest?

And also, the grind is the gameplay loop, making this more trivial encourages less gameplay...

I've answered some of these questions but I appreciate your feedback.

We already have a similar mechanism to paying interest, it's called a citizen's salary.

I've considered how much in the comment above by suggesting a taper, etc. But this is a suggestion post, and it is at the discretion of the developers to consider the interest paying mechanism as an actual in-game installation.

I hear you on the AFK part, but people receive citizen's salary while AFK, so I can't say that your point is a strong argument here.

So the value will be similar to citizen pay? So 2nd citizen pay? Same intervals? (Which defaults around to 15$ a minute, no mayor, with premium, so, around 900$ an hour (you can get this on medic in 2 minutes or faster))
