### 5/5 — Great ideas come with great rewards

*2022-07-07, version 1.02*

I’m happy God led me to you guys! Thanks for the support and I’m hoping you guys communicate with me often I need consultation!

### 1/5 — What a rip-off!

*2019-05-27, version 1.02*

The permanent profit and speed multipliers disappear if you reset for knowledge after purchasing them. Such a complete scam. Also, purchasing the upgrade that costs $250 Unquadragintillion makes the Internet Service Provider make no income.

### 1/5 — Too many bugs

*2017-10-27, version 1.02*

What a piece of trash!
