OK, I am convused. Why would ANYONE give real money to Team Lava. I don't. Never have, never will. They do not respect their customers or the hard earned cash they get from them. There are young kids playing this game too, and having so many "gotcha" things in a game that they know kids will play is in my mind unethical. (By "gotcha" I mean they have so many spots where if you accidentally click on it, your gold is gone.  They gotcha.)

The gold I have I received from neighbours. And from installing sample games (then deleting). For the first year I spent gold on nothing. Saving saving. Finally I had enough to buy my first gold producing draon on sale. With that I was able to save just over 1000 gold just before last Black Friday. Then my phone slipped in my hand and my finger hit something on the screen, and before I knew it, TL took away 1000 gold and I had 20,000,000 useless coins in the bank. Gotcha! I was quite angry with them (I am being very polite here). Still I was able to save enough to get another gold producing dragon a month later (I had to play some silly games meant for young girls to earn enough for that). With two gold producing dragons and neighbours, I was able to get about 10-13 gold per day. In the middle of this year, I saved enough for two more gold producing dragons when they went on sale. I now have 4 such dragons, and I get about 22 gold per day.

I started buying extra nests with that gold. 250, then 500, and then 1000. Then the second Evo temple for another 500. I spent the gold so that it would be less likely that TL could say Gotcha! to me again. Also, I felt it was better to spend the gold on "infrastructure" than individual dragons or leaderboard events. I don't spend gold on boosts, unless at the very end I am close to the final milestone dragon.

Sorry to bust your opinion, but yeah, it IS possible to do all this for free.

If you only have one nest and one evo temple, it is still possible to get lots of points. It's all about the food. for 30 gold, you can get 1000s of points if you spend your food.
