Hi everyone! Me again. :P


Constantly, roblox is talking about how great the Roblox Economy really is, and how it gives the users a take on how life really is.
My question is.... Does it really? I have many ways that could improve the Roblox Economy's realism, and I believe this is the place to share them.

I'll start with the Catalog. Hat's and such don't cost 5000 dollars in real life, I do admit that, but I think it fits the ROBLOX Currency well. So I will not be suggesting to change anything like that, because that's Roblox's way of Buying things.

Of course, there has been a lot of discussion about this lately, a Stock Market. What IF Roblox had a stock market for other people's games? I think that'd give users a taste of real life ultimately, and that'd also mean new ways to earn money for the not-so-fortunate Robloxians.

((Reminder: If I do disobey any WNTS rules, I'm sorry. I wouldn't do it on purpose, therefore I'd just a want a small reminder in the comments if so. Thank you, as I shall continue on now.))

Stock could also work for models, where you could put even MODELS up for sale. I think that'd be a smart thing to do, because that'd reduce scammers that say "Oh, buy this T-Shirt and you get this house" but then they never give you that T-Shirt.

In a recently mentioned post that sparked my interest, was coupons for certain Game passes and Clothing. That'd be EVER SO realistic, due to the fact that in the real world economy today, everyone wants coupons! Maybe this could be achieved via Roblox achievements, (like badges, but instead, you'd get the coupons that you could spend).

I believe that there should be an official selling game system, which would actually be a bit like house buying systems in real life. It'd be put up by the owner, near the game passes it'd have some type of "approval to buy game" pass and then it'd give you the game. BUT, remember, the owner has to put it up for sale first. This would reduce many scammers.

Last Idea:
What if one group makes some models and then could sell it to other groups. Bit like selling weapons in war to your allies.

Thanks for reading! Support or no support? Tell me what you think why or why not to support it!

Again, if I disobeyed any rules, I am sorry, I didn't intend to.

I REALLY REALLY like the Stock Market idea. I think that would be an excellent addition to roblox.

"give users a taste of real life"
I dislike... Regarding the stock market,
The stock market is a market where a percentage of profitspenses (Combined profits and expenses) are sold, as well as an amount of influence over the (Enter product here).
You're saying you want to give users a taste of real life, but there aren't very many expenses to be had.
"Maybe this could be achieved via Roblox achievements, (like badges, but instead, you'd get the coupons that you could spend)"
Would force reduce the greedy robloxian's income or force reduce the greedy government's tax. Bad.

Support, but there should be a tax on stocks if NBC can use them. It shouldn't be an outrageous number, just something as a slight pain. Somewhere like 20-25%.

There is no way to add any economic realism without making BC useless. Currently, BC is the opportunity to actually be involved in the economy, making 16 times the amount of money an NBC does, and TBC and OBC are a whole different story. A lot of things in the catalog take months for a nbc to get the money for off of just daily tix.

@Zangoose lots of nbc already use TC to earn a Robux and stuff. A smart nbc person, with enough money, could earn much more than someone with BC if they know how to use TC. Basically, TC kind of already is a stock market except with robux. But I think that an official stock market would just make it easier and more profitable even for those with BC.

Support for all

In order to make a reasonable amount of money with TC, you have to have a lot of time you're willing to set aside for pure boredom and a lot of money. Having 50 tix isn't going to get you much even if you get a good rate.

U don't need to constantly spend time at TC. You just need to keep track of what's happening with your money, and know when to make your move, just like with a stock market. You don't have to sit in constant watch if you know what you're doing. Finally, no matter what you do with 50 tix, it won't get you much, not even in a stock market. And be aware that while the benefits can be much bigger in the stock market, the losses can also be very big. Anything can die down as quickly as it picks up.

Paid Access already exists.

However, support to the rest of the ideas, they provide NBC additional income in a world about to be affected by Phil's upcoming ROBUX system.
