With the blood of Egypt's first-born sons.
(And when none of those are handy, there's always Mastercard.)

I rearranged our shed to make room for all the stuff in storage... then canceled storage and after my 5 accounts we break even every month :D

I'd believe it Wilbur.
A job, and Visa ;p MasterCard are a bunch of dicks, I work in the Card Industry, and their reason codes for Chargebacks & Compliance are a bitch, while Visa's are fairly clear cut and divided much much better. If you ever dispute a charge I hope it's on a Visa ;p

cus blizzard are muppits they dont take maestro i have to borrow my mums card, shes always shocked at how much a game costs each month, but in comparrison to my sisters horse rideing, my brothers xbox game a week addiction, my other sisters shopping habbits, it still works out that i have the cheapest hobby out of the lot.
I just wish they would sort out a way of paying via paypal in the EU realms would make life alot more easyer.
warcraft doesnt need to be expensive and it isnt a huge amount going out each month even with 5 accounts, if you cant afford it you need to quit smokeing or have a few pints less a week. It works out for me about £1.40 a day (5 accounts) which is nothing thats half a pint. (yes in england we measure face value by pints of beer)

I work an overtime shift and pretty much pay for WoW for 6 months.
Paying $80-100 a month in WoW Subscriptions is so much cheaper than going out drinking every friday like most of the other people at work.
Thats why I have a mortgage and have money at the end of every pay cycle and they dont. :)

Debit card (Delta) :lol:
Most of us in this community are adults, have jobs, and £62.93/month for my 7 accounts (including my wife's two) is trivial for me. In fact, I had to Google to find out how much the monthly subscription is - it just gets lost in the noise.
tax return
If only a tax return actually meant getting something BACK from the system in my little world :shock:
It normally means writing an eye-wateringly large cheque for me.

nod, for 5 accounts @ 14.99US per, its only $75 per month.
Go to college, get a good job, and, most importantly, marry an understanding wife :p

As for how I pay for five accounts, it's the same way I pay for one or two... credit cards! I'd make a joke about building up debt, but $75 a month is less than half of what I pay for my cable TV/Internet service. There actually *are* some perks to having a job that pays moderately well!

I pay for my accounts with famous Russian Vodka. Every six monthes I order a big truck, load up crapload of bottles with Vodka Stolichnaya and then send the track to America to main Blizzard office.
P.S I dont care there is an ocean between us.

I make $75 to $130 an hour. But in the scheme of things, WoW isn't that expensive compared to my $160 cable bill, $300 cell phone bill, etc etc.
Considering how much time I'm on the game, I think I get pretty good value.

In all reality the $75 a month isn't much of anything. Even with my measly $12/hr.
TBH I just cancelled the land line (have cells no need) and that freed up $35 more a month. So in reality by playing 5 accounts I save $5 a month :P

Yeah... often times, i'll just skip out on going out 1 time that i normally would and i'll make out spending the same amount of money. I love it when kids in game call multiboxers losers for "spending so much money". It's such a moot point when you make real money as an adult... they have no concept.

My favorite is when they say we have no life. When in reality we play as much if not less than most of the WoW population and we accomplish more in the same amount of time.

Not to mention to afford to multibox in the first place you'd most likely have to have a life lol
I love it when kids in game call multiboxers losers for "spending so much money". It's such a moot point when you make real money as an adult... they have no concept.
Especially now that you can buy a complete rig for sub $1500, monitors and WoW copies included.

Hardware is damm expansive here. I have to import it from Germany where I can safe 25%.
But in Germany Ram is soooo cheap right now. I just ordered 8gig DDR2 Kingston Value for only 120 Euro (~170$) free shipping to France.

paying for 3 to 8 accounts and a isp service can be a much cheaper form of entertainment then most other hobbies i know.
i know back wheni use to frequent bars it was easy to rack up 50 to 100 in one night and half the time i couldnt remember crap and the other half i wish i didnt remember crap.
Still possible to wake up (log on) next to a female Tauren in WoW though.
I save my lunch money and Spend Yours.
