A survey outside the Goblin Gaming Group's newest adult arcade, which until last week's ban was Ye Olde Kimono Pachinko Parlor, has revealed the state of goblin financial habits.
Goblins were offered a choice: 5.
Most of them then lost it inside the arcade within minutes.
"This is a clear sign that goblins need a serious education in basic finance," said Grungle Gristle, GNN's finance correspondent, who chose the penny. "We're a nation of impulse spenders, swayed by shiny objects and instant gratification."
For the record, a penny doubled every day for a year is a number with more than 100 digits, which is more money than exists, and Gristle has asked the survey team when he can collect. The survey team has asked him to wait a year.
Critics say the GGG's flashy promotions prey on goblin impulsiveness. The Goblin Council of Elders has not commented, but experts expect mandatory financial education courses, stricter gambling rules and possibly a nationwide ban on shiny baubles.
A penny saved is a penny earned. A penny doubled every day is a lawsuit.
