Bank Interest - Snyiper - 2007.Feb.05 02:30 AM when does the interest on the bank money happen ? Is it on a daily basis and at what time? Thanks for the help - Ushanewnewba - 2007.Feb.05 08:39 PM Why are there no peplies to this yet? This is an excellent question, does anyone know how interest is calculated and when? - LeftyTroll - 2007.Feb.05 09:03 PM i believe it to be midnight game server time. and it is an annual interest rate of 10%...compounded daily. - mastergasket - 2007.Feb.08 02:55 PM Right. From what I've observed and calculated, interest is added at midnight game time (Central U.S. time). 10% annually equals one dollar per day for every $3650 you have in the bank, rounded up or down depending on the exact amount. - GrAvE09 - 2007.Feb.08 09:55 PM I guess that's why banks get rich. 1 dollar for every 3650 wow. I wish i was the bank. - matt5250 - 2007.Feb.09 12:07 AM well, the AL bank operates in the red so I don't think you'd want to be that bank. real banks give much much less than $1 on $3650. if you just have a checking account you are getting something in the neighbourhood of $1 per day on every $73,000 you have in the bank. - GrAvE09 - 2007.Feb.09 01:28 AM The formula for the bank interest wouldn't be something like P=S(1+ i) ^n or something like that? - brythompson - 2007.Feb.09 01:33 AM The bank interest here is pretty realistic and i dont think it should change, what would be good is some sort of investement accout. Say you put $50k in then you choose an investement time (30, 60, 90 days) if you leave the money in then you gain some good interest (4%, 10%, 17%) If you draw the money out early then you get nothing not even normal bank interest. Example - put $50k in for 60 days you will get an additional $5k at the end of it. In the normal bank you would have got $815 - put $100k in for 90 days and get $17k instead of $2468. Just an idea, what do you all think? - Thor - 2007.Feb.09 01:47 AM Let's build a full Wallstreet look alike and let's see who dares invest on the dangerous ones for the big reward. Having no risk and getting high % every time would be a disaster for the economy of the game. Just like in real world, if you want to try and get more than 1,3% monthly, you have to be willing to take risks and/or make bad calls/bets/buys. - matt5250 - 2007.Feb.09 02:14 AM actually what berry is talking about is more like investing in treasuries or short term GIC's and I have had the same idea before. a bank account in AL pays 10% per annum, so realistically locking your money in for a given period of time should net you more than that with no risk. using bank of america as an example, currently a regular savings account pays 0.2% interest, compounded daily and paid monthly whereas a 9 month certificate of deposit pays 4.41%. now, 9 months is a little long to offer in AL, but the 30, 60 and 90 day options sounded good. basically berry is suggesting a fixed income market be available which I think is a good idea. |
