Cliff notes from a guy who sucks at math: Basically there are two types of buildings in the game. Type A, and type B. One follows a fibonacci pattern (type B) and the other follows a triangle pattern (type A). Type A buildings are far superior as the income basically triples instead of doubling with each upgrade.
Nightclubs are the single best Type A building in the game, that isn't an LTB. Get them, upgrade them, collect them, and the rest is easy.
Mxz is a lot more fun now that he's evil.
Still mad at Bostick.
I'll be back when the moderation is reasonable. Enjoy the forum you created, Gree.

I run my own gaming community. We may not make as much as gree, but our players are a wee bit happier.
NCs are best by far. Even though they are no longer the best iph building around they are the cheaper of the high ones. Always be upgrading something. When saving for high cost buildings upgrade buildings that you can easily replace the money spent during the upgrade time.
If you can afford it at least purchase the LTBs. That will provide a basis for a later time when you can afford it and they release cheap LTBs.
Do you have change for my 2 cents?
time to get slated again, NightClubs are a BS waste of time now, super long and expensive upgrades for a relatively poor payout, yes they boost the iph on your profile but in reality are far less worthwhile than a good 12/24 LTB.
some of my buildings and they're payout
L7 NC 9.3mil
L6 Mikes tattoo 17.3mil
L7 shooters gun shop 16.3mil
L9 diamond grillz 54.6mil
L8 tsar's teahouse 52.4 mil
L8 sparky's fireworks 20.7mil
without mods my next NC upgrade is ~1.5bil and ~145hours, that's 6 days!
bottom line is I make a shed load more money from my 8's, 12's and 24's than my NC.
I don't care if you agree with my opinion, its my opinion so move on and find someone who cares.
rough stats:- level 257 - 9att 4.5def - 322mil iph
I managed to get a decent IPH without bothering with NCs. Its only now with 2 upgrades that Im updating them but agree that the upgrade times are ridiculous. It doesn't mean to say that they are not effective as they have worked for many people.
Montecore made a very good point before, high IPH is one thing, high income is another. Its about what you collect at the end of the day.
The best building for me is the Diamond Grillz based on income and collect times. Its very affordable compared to other LTBs and I was surprised how low they were to upgrade so have them both at 10. If you have this building concentrate on upgrading them to bump up your income.
I thought you quit......knew you couldn't stay away, how would you get your daily self-importance fix. What a fag
Homophobia isn't cool, man.

The problem with the old buildings including the ever beloved nightclub is the time it takes to upgrade. Unbelievably long!
Agreed, neither is hemophilia
It's not exactly a strategy, but here are a few tips to keep in mind.
1. Select tycoon as your starting class or upgrade to goodfella for however much gold it costs these days (150g back in the day).
2. Always have something upgrading. Preferably something worthwhile, but options at the start are limited.
3. Don't invest much time, if any, upgrading buildings you think you might sell in the future.
4. Do collect your buildings on time. Use a timer/alarm clock if necessary. (Losing cash to robbers is no big deal, but keeping everything your buildings produce makes the IPH game that much easier.)
5. Build an LTB if you can afford it. Don't worry if you can't afford to upgrade it yet.
6. Regarding stock buildings, if you don't want to bother yourself with a lot of math, planning, and maybe even spreadsheets, a fairly reliable rule of thumb is to do the longest upgrade and/or most expensive upgrade available to you. There will be exceptions to the "rule" and they will depend on factors that can vary from one person to the next.
7. If you don't need to sell a building, don't.
8. Try not to expand your hood more than you need to. Expansions are expensive. If you run out of space it might be OK to sell buildings, but it might also be a better idea to just buy the expansion. Plan ahead and don't take any action without first giving it careful thought.
9. Rob people. It's nearly impossible to replace having your own IPH just by robbing others, but it is a fun way to earn a little extra on the side. Having a little extra never hurt anyone.
10. Pay yourself first. Syndicate bonuses are great and it takes teamwork to buy them all, but things happen. If you give too much to your syndicate it is more difficult to build yourself up, and in the event that you decide to leave your syndicate, or worse, your membership is revoked, you could find yourself donating all over again with a different crew.
problem is if you are extremely careful with your income per hour you're going to run into more leeches then you can rob, although I can find somebody to rob if I am persistent it usually takes 20 minutes to half an hour to find somebody that has better income than me on my level with my stats
If you collect your buildings on time it doesn't really matter where you leave a link. Suppose your only building is a Pawn Shop and you use an alarm to collect it at the same time every day. You are almost in complete control over how often it gets robbed. Maybe you forget about it and also miss your alarm, or you complete an upgrade causing the building cycle to come due at a time that is not convenient for you to collect, or you are busy with real life and decide to let it be robbed. In any of those scenarios, the only time your Pawn Shop can get robbed is when you let it get robbed.
this is absolutely true however I was trying to say that there are not people worth robbing in my rivals list. I don't care too much when I get robbed its not a big issue for me its pretend money and I have a real life this game is not the most important thing in the world
