Fmphelan, I think Team Furcorn gave you some really good advice. I will say in my experience too that the level you are at is one of the toughest in my opinion. Early on, it seemed like I could afford most things I wanted, and later than that level it seems like I now have a handle on the money situation, but when I was basically at the level you were at, it was seeming impossible that I would ever earn enough and I was considering giving up on the game. (!!).  I will add to Team Furcorn's advice, to invest your money into leveling your monsters (especially the high earners: Entbrat, Deedge, Riff, Shellbeat, etc, and also T-Rox, Thumpies, Spunge, Congle, etc). I would get your Entbrat up to 15 ASAP. I failed to get a Ghazt (Entbrat + T-Rox) so many times that I personally have a lot of T-Roxes on my Plant Island. They earn good money and while it takes a ton of money to get all of them to level 15, it is much easier to get all of them to Level 10 or so, where they earn a lot of money. As Team Furcorn was saying, it is better to have duplicate high-earning monsters like T-Rox than duplicate low-earners like Potbelly, Noggin, etc. After leveling your high earners, I would work on leveling your existing castles and filling them with more high-earning monsters before getting new islands. I seemed to have the most trouble when I spent all my money on getting a new island, and then it doesn't have enough room to breed the high-earning monsters. This time before I purchase the Earth Island, I am making sure that the high-earning monsters on my other islands are well-fed, that all my other castles are fully upgraded, and that I have enough of a financial cushion that I will be able to upgrade the island hopefully not long after purchasing it. Fortunately the Wishing Torches should help you get better high-earning monsters on your islands. I have been lighting torches for you! Hope this helps. 3311812AA (Adrian)
