Lol Yes obviously. However if I want to buy another month after the first one, I would only have $7.01 dollars, and so I would need to buy yet another $20 card in order to purchase enough Crysta for the second month giving me $27.01. Then I spend the $12.99 and I am left with $14.02. Now on the 3rd month I re-sub, I will be left with only $1.03. So it would be time to spend $20 again. - I would never break even, and there is nothing else for me to spend Crysta on (for FFXIV). So eventually when I decide to stop playing, I will have some amount of wasted money left over. Hence, paying $20 dollars for a month of service that costs 12.99 is NOT a FIX to the problem. But go ahead and do the math to figure out how many years of service I need to buy to break even. As frustrated as I am by not being able to pay, I could use some more idiocy to make me laugh and lighten my mood. Thanks.
