Why does housing initially need to be a massive gil sink?

They should have opted for a constant Gil sink through a Housing tax every 35 days, rather than going "If you don't use it in 35 days you lose it".

The idea behind the price is to give players a Gil sink, but its a one time Gil sink, so that's stupid. Reduce the overall cost and make it so you have to pay X (presumably based on the size) every 35 days to keep it and it is a manageable Gil sink.

It would also be a nice way to actually differentiate between FC and individuals; FC House tax could be larger for the same plot size as an individuals. That would also actually give FCs a constant activity to pursue - making Gil to pay for their House tax.

Not all of us can stay at our parents basements eating cheetos and playing 24/7. Some of us actually have jobs/ school and real life. A tax is about the dumbest idea i've ever heard.
