Our commanders are impossibly wealthy
After getting curious and doing some quick math to find out the approximate value of a Galactic Credit by today’s standards I am appalled that even the starting side winder would cost approx $58,383,040 USD.
Please correct me if I’m wrong but this is how I calculated it.
1 ton of gold galactic average goes for 48,442 credits
1 ton of gold goes for $88,380,800 as of 1/23/2025
88,380,800/48,442 = 1824.4663
Bringing us to approx $1824.47 to 1 Cr
That means your fleet carrier costs 9.12 trillion USD nearly half the US GDP.
Edit. After various replies and recalculating it myself it is much closer to the 50$ per Cr which in all fairness the point of our commanders being stupid rich still stands.
