  I've read enough of people's posts now to understand that many people actually pay real $$$ to play rather than using the "earn credits" function.

  I assume people are happy to part with their hard earned to play a game they enjoy.

  What kind of money are people paying to play?
  Big $$ or just a couple of bucks every now & then?
  Is it an ongoing weekly or monthly expense that you're happy to outlay?

  Not judging, just curious.

  How many credits do we get for participating in this survey?

  I really do not want to answer the first two to find out that I am disqualified and only get 5.

  Idk how much I've spent in the nearly 18 months I've been here. Probably somewheres between $1500-$2000?

  No biggie. I just don't pay real life green fees as often. Or Sport Bet as often. Or goto the Track as often. Or goto the casino as often. Or play online and real life Poker as often.

  It's actually cheaper this way.

  I'd rather invest my money in my recreation than my precious time for "free credits" which are more scarce for customers outside the US and a few other states.

  I used to pay 10-20 bucks per week, equal to one meal out, but it has diminuished a lot since Flash died.

  Others claim that they payed "thousands of $$" - to each his own!

  I watch 4 credit videos to get credit for balls. I refuse to pay money for balls when wgt puts a meter on them so they can take them away after you spend money for them.

  When I first found this game, I didn't know you could so easily earn free credits. I no longer remember the exact amount of money I spent before I quit spending money on the game. However, I do remember it averaged less than a dime per 9 holes played. I think it was around $700-$800 total. That is a lot cheaper than all the money I spent getting across town and shoving quarters in to a Vrs Golf arcade game back in the 80s. 😂 I would justify the spending $$$ by how cheap of a form of entertainment this is per hour. The price of a 2 hour movie could easily cover 40+ hours of WGT.
