A Waterdeep based campaign. I just acquired the leadership feat. The cohort will be a wizard (12th level). I have the opportunity to buy a future guildhouse site near the city. As some of you may know, piece of land in waterdeep are very expensive. A few hundred thousand gold pieces. Don't have the exact value, it will be sold during an auction (that I may "trick"). I don't have much trouble finding the money. I can borrow to money lenders and I have a mansion I could use as a garantee (or the guildhouse itself). I could mortgage my magical items too (near 150000gp in worth for my 14th level, minus what I have cash). I also won the favor of a noble family and my character is a noble himself (though at odds with his father...). Anyway. The point is I can get the money.The problem is rembursing. Here is my question at last. How much could a generic shop bring up in gp per month? I'm a very proficient jeweler (15 ranks) and the idea was to make some sort of a museum or art gallery. I got could publicity toward the nobles and the idea would be to have a hip place for nobles to hang out (the place used to be a gamble house) like a bar with very valuable furniture. There would be a shop specialized in material components (100 gp pearl, 1000gp diamond powder, etc) for spells and also a jewel shop. How long would it take to recover the investement assuming I borrow all of it? Discuss...</blockquote>
