No, it's not. As Tlamila says, airship and submersible voyages add up to a lot of gil. That's why there are so many players running multiple shell FCs to get multiple houses. There are certain builds and voyage routes that will bring back several hundred thousand gil a week, even assuming there's no new rare minion or housing item on the loot tables that will sell for millions on the MB. That adds up fast when you can have 4 different vessels operating with those builds/routes.

I also think that workshops should be moved to the GC so FCs don't need a house to have access to a workshop. There's really no logical reason for FC house ownership to be the gate to access. All FCs should have access, even without a house, as all FCs should have a source of income independent of member donations.

And workshops already are a solo thing even if it does take a FC house to have one. It only one player is needed to handle all functions in a workshop now. SE removed the 4 player requirement for the Fabrication Station a few years ago.

It's good to hear that at least your small FC is trying to keep it going as a group effort but that's not how it works out in practice for most FCs.
