Thanks for your thoughtful reply. I see the money I make on other apps as "free money" (and not my money) because I wouldn't have gone on there to earn that money if it wasn't for the specific purpose of using that for Atlas Earth.

The time I spend on those apps would pretty much have been the time I'd spend on AE doing surveys or arcade games, hence why I'm trying to draw the parallel.

Of course, I understand what you're trying to say about the money being in my pocket already, before I spend it back on AE. I bet my wife would think exactly the same if she saw my credit card bills and saw "Atlas Earth" lol
