In this picture, some cash items I have bought 90 days ago have just expired. WAAA!! *grabs tissue*

These have made me realise something:  Those items, although they made me look cool, were TEMPERORY, meaning that after a pitiful 90 days, they disappear into thin air.  And so I question myself:  What is the use of those white elephant clothes?  Is looking cool for 90 days worth the cost I paid?  (9k cash)

That is the sad thing behind cash items.  Although they make us go ‘WOW!’  when we see them, we always forget the sad truth that they act as white elephants and will always disappear one day. That is what makes the cash shop so successful and to keep that wow factor there, the gms constantly add more white elephants into the already highly-populated white elephant cash shop.

I’m not trying to say that we should boycott the cash shop; all I want to advise is this:  Before you buy the cash shop item, ask yourself:  Is it really worth the _______ a-cash* I have to spend for this?  What will I gain from the item?
