I actually have only spent diamonds on the castle upgrades (and I once mistakenly tapped a button while playing way too early in the morning and spent diamonds I didn't mean to--made me kind of mad at myself). I, too, believe that breeding till you drop is the most satisfying way to get the new/limited/ethereal monsters. I get plenty of diamonds from the daily free scratchcards, mini-mines and the memory game (only play to 1 level past where you were before every day and you get a free diamond). I'm hoarding them for castle upgrades or other things that you can't get without them. I don't begrudge anyone anything they have. Why should I? Doesn't get me anything. I live where $100,000 a year won't even qualify you for a loan on a house. I can't afford to have the "keeping up with the Joneses" attitude.
