I got caught up in GTA Online, I bought thousands of SEK worth of shark cards, I was able to get a few nice cars, and a lovely house, but Rockstar/Take2 were very clever, in the name of realism you had utility bills to pay, you needed to pay for having your car impounded, you could buy facilities to farm more money, but they cost as well, you needed special offices to get some cars, those cost money on top of needing to buy the car.
It was death by thousand cuts, and after a year or so, I just realized what a shit game it was an uninstalled it, I did have fun in the game, but it also taught me a very valuable lesson.
Don't buy shark cards.
