If your earning about 25k a month you can take out a loan for 2 million. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif Also consider downloading some new buildings and such from one of the fan sites. Simtropolis (?) is a good site.

Why do you have a hole in your city? Got mad at your city one time and tossed a meteor at it?

Be sure you get the Rush Hour version.

Next stop to the mall I'll get it.

I've made a very succesful city so far, 15,000 population, and I'm making 600 dollars a month!

Re: OT: Nothing More Frustrating

I broke 20,000 people! Yay!!! I almost have enough profits for schools, and maybe hospitals!

EDIT: My new city hit another bump that derailed my other city and drove it into the ground. Before I knew what was happening, profits suddenly dropped like a rock, and I was in the red from 1,000+ surplus a month. I got a bunch of those goverment NIMBY projects to push it back over, though, and the bump is over. Once my budget stabilizes again, I'll get rid of them.

Be sure to enable gambling, watch those education costs as they fluxuate. Do not over expand! And only build enough to keep your city going. Cemetaries are gifts and good ones. Accept the status, but DO NOT put them down. The mayors house is the only gift that I accept that costs me money early on.
