She doesn't know that I've already purchased the hair shes after. I'm trying to teach her how to get a head in the game and always giving her what she wants and not making her work for isn't helping her.
I give her stuff to sale and tell her how much I want for it. If she sales for more than that, she gets the coins. So far its working out and I hope that some day in the future, maybe she will pay it forward and help someone like I'm helping her.

I have to tell you a little story. I ran across a young girl. At the time, I had no clue how old she was, but she seemed nice enough. We became friends and I see her almost every day now. After we had hung out a little while, she asked if she could borrow an item. I decided to take a chance and said yes. We traded. She took that item and wore it for a few days, then one day she popped up and said I need to give you your item back. I actually was shocked. That was a few weeks ago. Now, she is always borrowing my stuff. She always brings it back to me and trades for something else. I have let her borrow cheap stuff and stuff that costs a few millions.
Now she is after a certain hair that cost 2m. I've become her banker. She makes coins and brings them to me. They are all recorded on white boards. She has gotten up to almost 800k now. I told her that the coins were hers and she could get them any time she wanted but in order to move ahead in the game, she has to save and she has to sacrifice some times and not "want" it all.

I love this story...and it reminds me of what happened to me not long ago. A friend of mine wanted to have some type of pageant thing lol...anyways she asked if I wanted to watch. I said sure so we went to her place and she started the event. several girls came. And the host my friend would tell everyone to wear pink and next might of been blue I forget. Well the last stage she said ok now everyone put on something from 08. I myself thought that was a little to much to ask but anyways the one girl asked what do you mean 08. I automatically felt bad for her and pmed her to put 10 coins in trade and gave her a playboy bunny costume. After the pageant was over she put trade back up with me. I canceled the trade and said no it was a gift I didn't want it back. And she's like oh my godddd ty ty so much. That was probably the first time anyone's ever offered to give me something back. I really figured after the event she'd poof and not say a word but I didn't really care if she would of but I was pretty much in shock that she actually offered to give it back. Not many would do that.
