The Oxygen Bar was a complete waste, gratz, you threw one megaticket out of the window! :)

Basically, you wanna apply the megaticket to the business that will comprise the highest proportion of your cash income rate (cash per second) in the close future of your progress.

If you don't have the managers that display income in cash per second rather than per profit cycle, you need to calculate it by dividing the displayed income per profit cycle of each business by its profit cycle duration, which you can look up on the adventure capitalist wiki (shared speed bonuses can be neglected because they cancel out when calculating the proportion, so you'd only have to consider bonuses on Earth if you don't have all businesses at level 400 or greater yet). Then, calculate the total CPS by adding up all ten individual CPS. For each business, divide its CPS by the total sum to get the proportion.

You might wanna check if you're short of reaching a new Unlock that could shift the balance, otherwise just apply the megaticket to the business with the highest proportion of your total CPS.


At my state of progress, on the moon this is clearly the Giant Laser, it made up about 83% of my CPS before I applied the ticket. The following moon businesses for me were the Werewolf Colony and Helium-3 Farm, the income rate of anything else is so miniscule it doesn't make sense to apply megatickets at all.

For the earth,the CPS proportions are much more evenly distributed. Lemonade Stand, Car Wash, Pizza Delivery, Donut Shop, Bank and Oil Company are all good candidates. The Newspaper Delivery only shines in endgame, when it gets many consecutive 50x multipliers. Hockey Team, Movie Studio and Shrimp Boat are the worst.

Giant Laser is a good one on the moon, on earth I started with lemon stand and oil but after a while i realized that others end up making more money than oil later on... however now i got everything on earth megaboosted and on my way for the same for the moon

oh boy, i knew i should have waited a bit...

In fact, i havent get any "cash per second manager" in the moon level, so i though the oxygen would be the higest

180 if you're patient and wait for the 90 purchases. One of those gets a whole area boosted.

Are you for real ? You can't save up megabucks for above 60/70 of them, you would need hundreds of year to reach the 90

Not late in the game... and you can buy them on the moon as well which resets the prices so you can get them cheap. My first 90 I bought 45 on earth and 45 on the moon. Easy.

Also, see how many hours I got in the game? It's been a while lol

What do you mean by "late in the game" ? I'm in fairly late game too, where things start to slooooooooow down a lot (untrigintillion angels / ~500 achievements) and in total I have only been able to buy 57 megabucks.

Also, on moon I am at nonillion dollars and struggling to get further, but the megabucks you can buy from the moon start @ 1 decillion, then undeceliion etc. Given how slow the moon is, it's not a reliable source of megabucks (as of now, before the rebalancing). So I wonder, have you cheated ot just played for a very long time ? (like when the game came out)

I have 581 achievements, and 58 sextrigintillion angels. I've been able to get megabucks fine. I buy in bulk.

I've also played for nearly 400 hours.

On the moon atm I have 30 quindecillion angels.

On moon, Oxy and Cheese are good early, similar to Lemonade and Oil early on Earth. Later however, Moon's big proffit is Laser and Earth's is generally Donuts.

Oxy and Cheese are really only there to get your first 100+ Lasers, but by the time you get 200 lasers they are going to be very bad investments for the future.

i've reached the point when donuts are the best investement, and im soooooooooooo f+king far from getting 200 lasers (i've just reached nonillions) so i guess i will spend one more in cheese mines.

So right now i have boosted donuts, oxy and cheese, would you guys recomend me to invest one or two more?
