OK! I want to start a Project soonish in the future! 

So I have some questions hopefully some of you can help me out with so I can hopefully get maximum points on this pony!

My 2 main goals are:

1: Surpass my highest pointed Lustiano which is tbd but Red Rapture is almost set to surpass Keziah who has a little over 6 mil points!

2: Get him/her on the top 25 highest pointed horses in the game!

Here are some questions I have!

1: What is the base amount of HP dollars I should start out with to begin such a project!

2: How much should I be spending on horse tix lol

3: Should I do a starter pair from the cash shop? Two from regular store or from a pair of lines (which ones!)

4: I think I’m set on shows and I still have some perks from stocking stuffers back in December like permanent extra energy !

If you have any other helpful advice I’ll gladly hear it!

1. Doing the math you should look at it like this:

Roughly 250k a spot for private shows, 500k for the pair.
500,000 x 100 (shows) = 50m.
50m x 17 (trainable weeks unless you deage) = 850m
If you DO deage by 2 = 950m

THEN you need to think about the cost of tickets which right now I believe are back down to 200k (yay) so that's 10m per a set. 
If you start with store pairs you can easily hit 5mil just off of the 100 private shows BUT that means that you need a 1m bonus from tickets.
Tickets give you 3,750 points which means you need roughly 277 sets to hit a little over 6mil points bare minimum. 
Each of those sets will run you 10m. 

That's 2.77bil. 

So roughly I'd say you need close to 4bil starting, unless you plan to make money during the project.

2. Private shows > tickets. This is where the majority of your points will come from & it'll be the cheaper method.

3. I love doing store lines and keeping them going, my Star lines have goals of no less than 5mil each generation, and that started with my foundation store lines! I'm adding in a new set of store lines to them now. HOWEVER it is more costly to do it that way as you'll need tickets (especially to get to 6mil from 0). My $ esitmate above is based on doing store lines vs. doing something with points from birth which obviously will give you a boost!

4. Definitely use the extra energy! If you buy the perm. extra energy you can do 100 shows a week, 40 shows a day even. So this is awesome, especially when buying private shows where you already get more poitns just because of the limited entries.

Btw, I'm totally for hire if anyone needs accounting stuff done on HP. 😂

Siib's math seems pretty solid except that I usually pay 500k per horse for horse shows ($1 mill per pair per show). 250k is usually dog spot prices.

My thoughts: 

Lined over store. Means they'll get generational achievements to boost your points right from birth! Plus you get an extra 3 weeks to get them to their point goal.

Make sure you're in your max # of private shows. and obvs ones with less entrants is better.

Don't do a project during the mascot contest if you don't want to be paying inflated prices for tix because everyone and their mother want them.

Thanks everyone who left comments so far ! 

‘This is going to help me out a lot I might wait a month or two before I dive into this just to gather funds etc ! Like sibbs math says it’s going to cost me aa pretty penny either way haha !

The more advice the better!

I have way too many spots right now, I thought my sheet said 250k for them but considering how many animals I have in privates I could have gotten discounted prices or just looked at the wrong thing. I would start talking to big providers and get numbers from them and start reserving spots about 2 weeks before you want to start so you have a better idea then. But yeah 4bil to start minimum. You might end up wanting/needing more when you get into it.

Siib be like 

I have no advice, but good luck with your project!

-agrees with shark-

Ive done many projects...obviously!

You need billions! 

And id suggest gathering funds and starting the project around double pts month...that way tickets prices will go down from the mascot contest craze and dbl pts month will help some!!!

I also recommend hitting up people with bulk amounts of tix ahead of time to reserve them!

-waves bulk tickets around- I've got over 70 atm that I'm happy to sell. ;) Will take reservations.

Also Murd, you're not entirely wrong! haha. Data Admin job put my accounting dreams on hold (for who knows how long) but I love doing that sort of math. Jump at every chance. haha

Maha, we have internets & so on. Let's do it!

 Oh boy when is the next double points month? or is there only one a year?

Ill start saving funds now i usually sell a decent amount of upgrades so that should help set me up with some money !

Once i have all my funds ready ill start looking for h-tix asap! Hopefully i can get them at a decent price!

what siibs said!

Im only in privates and im easily spending 80mil/week per pair or 40mil for 1 spots @500k in 80 shows. 

And thats not considering tickets.

1 sets @ 200k = 10mil per set of of tickets

so i agree, youll need a good saved amount.

Double Points are only once a year, but 6mil is a really good goal that you can get any time of year as long as you can get the ticket reservations and 100 private shows!
