Rise, My Star!

I first shared about my Rising Star game 11 days ago and there had been really good strategy advice from awesome players which I applied and helped me level up my game.

What are those advice?
These will also be helpful to those who are just starting in the game.

• Buy Pizza Box and Pizza Slices
  Best advice from those who shared their strategies on my previous post. (@burlarj, @b0s, @coquicoin, @luizeba - forgive me guys for the tag. Have to mention you because I owe these to you hehe)

  So I bought Pizza Slices and Pizza Boxes which really helped a lot so I was able to complete more missions during the day and rarely run out of energy. I currently have 2 each of them.
  
  

• Do Music Lessons to increase Skills and overlap Ego.
  Initially, I was not aware that although my Ego Meter got down to zero (from 86%), my Total Ego was still lot more than my Total Skills. So I bought more guitar instruments and did many Guitar Lessons until my Total Skills become higher than the Total Ego so now, my Ego Meter stays at 0% even when I'm getting more Ego from completing missions.

  Prior to this, I mixed different lessons (Singing, Guitar, Production) but learned from others that it is best to focus on a specific instrument, which most suggested the Guitar which has more Skill Reward (10-24) compared to the others lessons.

  And so yes, I do several guitar lessons each day in between other different missions to keep increasing my XP and Skill. As of this writing, my Total Skill is 3774 and bulk of it came from doing lessons. Noticed that running this lesson gives me more Pizza Slices most times which is good because it keeps refilling my Pizza Boxes.

  
  
  

• "Try to do different missions within 24 hours."
  Didn't know that by doing varied missions within a day, the earnings will be highers. Prior to learning this from @stdd (thank you), I usually stick to the missions I like. When I switched missions now and then within the 24-hour period, I noticed that my Starbits earnings are increasing.
  
  

• Run shorter missions during the day and the longer missions at night.
  A great idea from @fiberfrau and sis Eli. As I usually go to bed around 10 at night, I run the mission with the longest hours which my account level and number of fans allows me to. By the time I wake up the next morning, I run different shorter ones from the 5-minutes missions to the 60-minutes and alternating Guitar Lessons too.
  
  

I also do the Special Missions from time to time and there's a new one that just came out! The Summer Breeze! The mission requires a S41 Abs card which I don't have. Checking out the market, it currently costs 19k Starbits or 15HIVE.

It's been fun doing this in between my daily online activities and although I'm still far from progressing in game earnings and others, at least I saw how my game account changed from since I've listened and applied the above strategies. I'm now at Level 51 and will be shifting my focus to increasing my fans and Starbits so I could do the Millionaire Missions. I've no 1M Starbits on my HE wallet and checking the price, 1M now costs 168HIVE. Will contemplate for a while whether to buy or not yet, lol!

So now, my question is, is it worth to buy the 1M Starbits? Would love to hear from those who have done it hehe. Thanks a lot in advance to those who would share their thoughts :)

Cheers!
