Why not just buy all available buildings and upgrade all to level 10? Makes no sense why you wouldn't. I mean, I've got all available cash buildings to me at level 5/6 (except the loft) and am working on upgrading them to level 10...why not?

So, Italians, lofts, MTs.

Well, it comes down to a few things. For one, it would take you forever to upgrade EVERY building to Level 10. In reality, by the time you get most of them into the higher levels, you'll want to focus your TIME on Lofts, Nightclubs, and the other higher output buildings. At a certain point, the lower level buildings won't be worth your time to upgrade, even if they're cheap to do so.
The question just becomes which buildings you upgrade first and at which point do you stop with the lower buildings.
Great job MT!
Glad you are one of us
Lot's of good points brought up, but this is my take on this.
I usually tell someone who just made a new account, to increase mafia and to try to build a MT as soon as possible, then a loft. But in the process of saving up for it, they should start building all the Type A Buildings, then upgrading everything up till 6 while focusing on upgrading the House, T-Shirt Stand to lvl 10 while they are saving up for the upgrades on the MT's and Lofts.
Once your MT's and Loft's are built, You can start building Type B buildings with bases above 1k
If you look at my hood, it's pretty much how MXZ described what buildings are essential in the beginning stages of camping, which seems to be what most experienced campers usually have.

Good points guys. I do want to reiterate, my focus in this guide and my opinion of strategy revolves around bosses. The economy side is mostly second to me, because I think if you set yourself up early as a boss killer, the rest will fall into place and truthfully won't be relevant until much further on.
I know this has turned into a large economy discussion based on some individuals' interests. Mine are that you focus on your bosses.
There are mafia-size based weapons that you can unlock from lvl 2. A strong economy allows you to stock up on these, making boss-killing that much easier.

I'd like to publicly thank Mxz for all he has done for the various Gree games. You can use his links above to find out a bunch of info on various Gree games and items within those games. None of them address in detail what I've done in this thread, so I hope it's useful to others in different ways than they are.
If you need to reach Mxz, please see his contact above, or find any post from an SAS member and he'll be trolling it because who knows why.
I truthfully don't know why he has decided to troll this one, but I honestly hope it helps people and I had no intention for it being his sounding board of minute details and do not wish to feed him any longer, as I've tried to avoid thus far.
If anybody else has any questions of which I can be of assistance, I ask that you post them here as others have done and I will answer them to the best of MY ability. I've tried to compile everything that I wish somebody would have told me when I started.

I'm actually going to disagree with this. I took down many bosses and Peppers has too without spending any gold. I'm not what you would consider a heavy gold spender. Mxz also mentioned in an earlier post the same strategy I'm insisting upon. Once you get enough scratchers to beat 1 boss, the rest will steamroll if you follow this strategy. The first boss is the key though. The rest after that will be free.
Nice thread MT. I haven't had the time to update my guides. It's good to see a lively discussion on the subject elsewhere.
