Around a week ago, I did enter the world of producing drugs, weapons and alcohol. Not only produces but I also claim to have a wide distribution network!

Luckily drugwars are not available yet, so each druglord can quietly expand their production, create armies and alliances! At the moment we all claim to be the new Escobar!

Investments

Since the beginning of my steem adventures I always was powering up for a full 100%, but when @magicdice and @steemmonsters did enter into my world I understood that it was vital to always have some liquid steem in my wallet. This decision was made just before @drugwars did go live!

Quikly I discovered Drugwars and this was an excellent time to see if being one of the early players does have an advantage. So I did start upgrading some buildings with the Instant Upgrade functionality. In the early days there were some kick ups in the game, but the drugwars team was 24 hours per day available to solve them! Great job!

The first investment was made on the 11th of February and was quickly followed by some more when the drug money came in :)

In total my investment in the game is 80.839 Steem. A rather big investment because it is around 5% of my Steem wallet. Time will tell if I did made the correct decisions!

But because I don't want to step in the same pitfall as I did with Steemmonsters I also decided to not invest any further!

Drug money!

Last Sunday was the best day so far with a drug pay check of 12.499 steem. Which I could get this daily, could get used to it!

I did receive 8 paychecks so far, good for a revenue of 63.296 Steem. An average daily pay-out of 7.9 Steem. I do think that this average will drop. Because no new fiat investments will be done, I will have to make the right decision and of course it will slow things down!

Here is the profit/loss graph!

I do hope to start making a profit after 5 to 6 days. With a little but of luck this will be possible after 4 days, but then I do need 4 consecutive days with a paycheck above 4 steem! Possible but you never know in drug land!

It is hard to be a drug lord! Decision time!

If have been thinking about this all day and still didn't figure out what the next step should be.
The next target is a new Pharmaceutical Lab. The current one is an outdated level 2! An upgrade to level 3 would increase the drug production with almost 25K. But it has a cost, a rather big one. 100K drugs, 140K weapons and 180K alcohol!
There are 2 ways to glory in this. Upgrade the weapon and alcohol silos and wait until I did get the resources and in the mean time depositing drugs in the heist. Or to take the slow road and first invest in a better weapon and alcohol production. This will set me back in the resources of drugs and weapons or alcohol but I will reach my desired resources and would give me a more balanced production line!

The Cartel

Just like in the real drug world, it is wise the join a Cartel. You can see it as buying some kind of protection and it is!
So before you all attack me be warned that I am part of the biggest and best Cartel in drug land!
We could be nice but will react fierce and brutal when one of us will be attacked! We will not tolerate this! Hell no!

Cheers,
Peter
