I don't seem to have earned any income at all today. I checked at 12AM CST and again after 2AM and was sitting at same amount. I did receive $10k for logging in at 2AM. Did receive money at 3AM, so maybe missing 1AM income?
I too was hesitant to join up. Between being busy and trying all the other Nation Sim games and being dissapointed. I like this game so far, seems to have a lot of potential. Glad I didn't wait too long to get started!
