Simple inflation fix

Simple way to fix the economy.

First off, look around online and find some commodity to base the economy on (good example would be the price of a specific, or a barrel of oil).

Calculate the ratio of the new price to the current price.

Multiply all prices and current money by this ratio. This will lower prices to a realistic level for the 80s, and keep buying power the same whole lowering the total money supply.

ALTERNATIVELY, although definitely less accurate, use an inflation calculator to find the conversation factor to 1980s money. Then multiply all money and prices by this ratio. Either way, people have way too much cash for the 80s.

The economy is not inflated. I don't know where people get this misconception from. There is less than 100 million in circulation, only 50 individuals have more than 1 million. It is normal for a server that has been online for a year to have people who have excess amounts of money, that's the goal of the game. Nobody has an absurd amount, you'd be surprised to find out that a number of big factions are actually flat broke.

Idk if we have a different understanding of inflation, but mfs are buying suits for the same price as cars. That to me is an indication that people have too much money to spend.

Also bruh there should be like 5-10 millionaires, and way less than 100 mil in circulation. Do you not understand that money back then was worth more? There should be 2-2.5 times less money.

On what are you going to spend money on?
You legit can spend money on: Cars, Drugs, Weapons, Clothing (PAC), Property

Ofcourse you are going to spend alot of money on either one of these things.
