Wheel of Fortune needs updating
I understand that there are other ways to spend money in this game, however the current mechanics for WoF suck. You earn a base amount of $50 per money drop,often times you earn around 200-400$ in a single room. To spin the wheel it costs $25, a pitifully low amount (which can be a good thing if you want to spin a lot) however I think this system is terrible.

With card effects like Gambler (where it literally spawns a WoF before boss fights), it is more intuitive to spend all your money to gain as much buffs before fighting bosses, or simply you have max money, and want to spend some but there is no store anywhere near your level.Since upgrading, permanently increases price with each use (and from what I understand about it) it only "upgrades" 1 spin (because the wheel resets after every spin). Upgrading is essentially a waste of money after the $300 mark, and is only worth upgrading 1-2 times per spin Not to mention you can "overlap" upgrades, where the first upgrade, reveals a curse tile, and then upgrading again changes the curse tile to hp damage tile, this ultimately resulted in you having to upgrade 2 times for no reason. Meaning to spend the rest of your money spinning $25 at a time, takes FOREVER, where also half the time you gain meaningless items like HP at full HP or blueprints that you don't care about or even more money.

There are 2 solutions I can think of that can immediately improve the WoF
1 - Add scaling to the wheel, either have 2 additional wheels or allow the player to increase the pay amount, so that everything in the wheel gets scaled higher. For example pay $100 and everything is tripled, high tier blueprints, triple HP damage, earn 3 cards (positive or negative maybe even a mix), triple exp, etc. Because right now simply spinning the wheel 3 times for the same result, is such a waste of time.

2 - Everytime you upgrade the wheel, you can spin it more than once. As I mentioned, from my understanding of the WoF mechanics (correct me if I'm wrong), the wheel gets reset after every spin, meaning the upgrades you spend only work once, but the price permanently increases for each subsequent spin. So what I think we should be able to do is after upgrading the wheel 3 times, I can spin the same wheel 3/4x (will still cost $x per spin but it is done automatically) This way, upgrading actually does something meaningful and is worth spending past $400, it is also another way to "bulk spend" money and not waste time spinning the wheel 1 at a time.

The upgrades do generally last more than one spin, however the spot you land on, and one spot to either side all reset to question marks, any other spots should stay upgraded
