I don't know the exact amount, but it's between $200 - 400 somewhere. Probably around 275 somewhere.

Waht about mumble. I have met some of my very best friends from playing TOR. I have contact with them every single day, hours a day. FB chat, mumble, in game, etc.

BTW, the hero armor looks awesome on my Jedi sage. I love it. And the new black Aratech speeders. I'll have 1 for all of my 9 characters.

I've have, with some simple techniques, Gotten all the legacy set-ups I need across 12 active alts, and earned around 10 million credits in the process (I've made about 3 million on this latest release, in about an hour).

That Two hundred is small change for me, and small change for a hobby that one enjoys on almost a daily basis (I've spent a hell of alot more then that on hobbies LOL). So, for me, the cartel market has allowed me an option to use real world cash to save me in-game time and credits so that I can further enjoy the content without the drudgery.

Over all of my family's subs $ 0.

I stil have over 2,800 unspent coins from my monthly. The only things that I have spent coins on are extra character slots and cargo hold unlocks.

Have to disagree with you there (regarding the bar).

What that would grant you is a night bumping into drunks and dysfunctional.....and the occasional piggy girl in the hiked up dress, smeared lipstick, and trash mouth. LOL I see your point, but gars are not social hangouts, they are mutual dysfunction tanks. ;p

Now I could get on board if one was speaking of a valid function, wedding with family, outing, social event.....but one can do both if they look at the game as a hobby and not an alternate reality. In fact, looking at it as a hobby for one's spare time while continuing one's education, advancement in the working world can afford one the disposable income to support both a social life, and a hobby.

Moderation, planning, common sense....which you and I both know can be absent from these environments. LOL

I can understand people thinking that the CM is silly and not spending money in it, but vocalizing disdain for people that do spend money clearly comes from insecurities.

I do not understand why people spend so much money on diamonds. In my opinion it is just a shiny stone. I do not, however, judge people that do spend money on diamonds. I certainly do not take every opportunity given to put down people that are wearing diamonds. Who am I to say what other people should spend their money on?

I could make a bunch of points about how I spend way more money on golf, or at the bar, or trips to sporting events, but why should I? If I have the cash I can spend my money on over sized monster truck tires or over sized stuffed animals. The point is that no one should judge me for it because no one should care. Its like what Jay-Z said "what I eat dont make you ****"
You sir summed it up perfectly. RL toys or Virtual toys. Are still toys

$0.00

With sub CCs I've only bought cargo and inventory expansions.

$80 at a bar doesn't even guarantee 10 drinks, much less any human interaction.
Below this is my referral link. If you press it you get free stuff and I get free stuff. This makes you, me....and Bioware happy, but don't let that stop you!

Haven't spent a dime and don't plan to. My sub should be more than enough. If Bioware wants more revenue then they need to make this game attractive to more people, not bleed the ones that are already here.

Didn't say it guaranteed anything but a chance.

Did say the alternative guarantees lack of physical human contact though.
