I did put in 20k for a level one party - although it was 90% copper + silver (with about 70% pf that 90% as copper) they had to make trips and when they returned after the 1st trip they found some of the other local denizins were "making trips as well"in the end if you allow 30k to wreck your game then there are other larger problems then the 30k and some of the people I've gamed with could wreck a game for a LOT less then thatYou just have to take it back without seeming to do so, and good players wont just use it to up thier characters but also to up thier characters standing in the comunity by fixing up thier favorite inn (one character in an old game gave the barkeep 5-10k and told him "you need more light in here" - the next time they came in between adventurers the inn was "closed for remodeling" and later reopend as the "Chandalier Inn" - of course the PC's drinks were free. or perhaps now his drink of choice is on tap - perhaps just for him)and the plot hooks are limitless - the pc's renown will also go through the roof which you can use to your advantage as a DM and they can exploit as players . . .  <img src="http://www.enworld.org/forum/images/smilies/paranoid.png"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":uhoh:" title="Paranoid    :uhoh:" data-shortname=":uhoh:" /></blockquote>
