It’s always so weird to think about things like this. I remember reading something once that the money in the Pokémon games wasn’t worth much, so someone that was actually around 10 years old would be able to afford pokéballs and potions and stuff like that to start their journey. To me money is such an abstract concept, like here’s a piece of paper that’s worth x amount of dollars, and if you work so many hours you get so many pieces of paper (and now that so much is digital banking it’s even more abstract).
It seems like the economy is pretty good in Stardew Valley, even with Joja Mart in town Pierre is able to keep his shop open, and even though you only start off with 500G you’re able to use that to start your farm and make a living, I’m not sure how much it costs to live in Zulu City though. It seems like to worth of G is much less that the American dollar anyway.
@tdog0008 I would also not be surprised if Morris only offered Pierre 2cents an hour, that seems like the Joja way!
