Personally, I'm up to 20 million plus 4+ million in Bank Of Bob currently.
Total: 24,008,350

Edit:
Bought the Ford Mark IV for 20,000,000 so bankrupted myself, but won the Penniless Trophy!

Edit:
Back up to 12+ mill.

Edit: Spent 4+ mill. :)
BoB back up to 12+ mill.

Edit:
45 mill total now including spent.

How are you guys getting such big payoffs? I guess I need more friends to race with :-\

Just haven't cashed out pretty much sincevremote racing started since I was already at 20 mil with all of the cars I wanted to get.

Plus some of my friends run the widget 24/7.

That is what I need, someone else who runs the widget who can help me grind.

Forty million achieved!

Nice. Makes me look poor with my measly $23 Million. But my PS3 is freshly rested, and I'm back on my way!

TB
One hundred-twenty, here I come!

Sometimes I really do wonder whether they bothered to implement a limit at all, or whether they just figured people are going to frequently cash them in anyway, and a limit for the online Bobs really isn't necessary. Let's see whether it'll end at $120 Million.
 
That brings me to my next point: would you want to spend it all on one expensive car? Or would you want to buy multiple ones just to increase your garage?!

I kind of figured that went without saying. And I don't have to spend my credits, I get to. ;)
 
my ps3 has been off for almost a week....since I got my ipad2...lol

checked last night and im at about 13Mil in BoB and still 20Mil in game....

I guess when all settles down at PD in a few months, and they add some new races, I will jump back on, but at this point theres not much for me to do except grind for no special reason...

I, for one, am not interested in increasing my garage. I don't really buy cars I never really want to drive, simply for the sake of having them in my garage. There are quite a few cars I still do want to buy though, and that's the good thing about having all that money, you know you can buy all these cars as soon as they pop up, even if a couple of the more expensive cars pop up at the same time. Would be a shame to miss a car simply because it pops up while you're out of money.

That said, I've just hit $30 Million. Yay!! :D
 
Every one is jealous but I feel sorry for you. You have to spend that 11m to cash in on your bobs. Laugh out loud

It's not so difficult, I waited until I had a full 20 million, bought the Ford GT40 Race Car '69 for 20 million and won my Penniles Trophy in the process! ;)

I don't see a problem. I do see a lot of nice vehicles in my future, though.

And again, not have to, get to.

You do realize that, just the top 10 most expensive cars, cost more than 150 million Cr., don't you?
 
So far i've made 4,586,660 (With money collected a few times).

Pretty good i'd say.
 
You could always try actually playing the game now! I know that's a novelty but you might enjoy it.
Go race! 👍 ;)

Well, you could eat some vegetables I suppose.


As to the post, I bought a $20,000,000 beauty, thanks to b-spec. I raced it. I won new cars and have been racing severely for days now. B-spec has been fun for me.
 
I see what you're laying out. Of course, it appears that you get bonuses for every car you throw into your garage after every 10 cars, so yeah, I guess I have to agree knowing that finances in the game are the key to see what it takes to approach 1,000 cars in the garage. For a better chance of getting even more cars, don't install mods into a vehicle unless you have to. I'll drop this subject here because I think I am derailing the topic. Thanks for understanding! :)

Could do with some more Remote Race Friends, I have a few who use my bobs and I at least once a week spam the remote races while my Mrs is watching her TV shows.

So add me, same as my user name and I'll spam your drivers if you spam mine. :D
 
Hmm, something really odd is going on with my earnings...

I've been keeping track of my winnings, and I could have sworn I was just shy of $35 Million yesterday, when I restarted my widget, at around 5ish pm local time (made sense too, as it fit in with my previous calculations and the amount of time the widget was running. Been playing quite a bit over the weekend so didn't remote race non-stop).

Now, this morning I found my computer dead (PSU died), and was expecting quite some disappointment with my current total. Luckily, it seems to have been running till 5ish am local time, so for a good 12 hours.

And here it comes, I just did my total, and it's over $44 Million!! :crazy:

I don't get it. How can one go from $35 Million to $44 Million in 12 hours? Based on my calculations, the best I could have hoped for in 12 hours is about $3 Million. But 9????

Did anyone else experience any oddities with their winnings? And yes, I've checked the total several times, I'm up to $44,396,720. I know, I should probably be happy about this, but all I am right now is utterly confused. :confused:

Checking my totals on gran-turismo.com a week or two ago I lost a few million but logging out and back in remedied that.

I've just logged out and back in, just in case, and I'm on $45,616,590 cumulative now. Not sure what happened, but maybe when I calculated my totals yesterday the earnings weren't up to date. It's odd though, as whenever I've calculated my totals previously it seemed to be about right, based on how long the widget was running. Unless it's not been up to date for a while, and now it caught up all of a sudden? Oh well, I'll just keep my fingers crossed that what's shown currently in fact are my current winnings.
 
One question to all the players with the Bobs earning over 20 million... isn't the cap on your actual GT5 20 million? So when you finally cash out a 50 million bob isn't there a chance that only 20 will appear in the bank?

So far, no one has a 50M Bob so it's not an issue. However your point still stands - when you cash them out, run the numbers so you don't hit the 20M cap and if you're going to, buy something to get down below it.
