I’d rather not pay just to have our funds held. I feel like we can carry it if we convert to platinum, that’s about 59 coins altogether, which I think weighs just over a pound.

Edit - Ir maybe it’s 6#, I can’t immediately remember if coins weigh 1/10# or 1/50#, different in different editions and systems.
OSRIC: First, 5gp to 1pp (OSRIC 2.2 pp. 31). Second, it's 10 coins to the lb (pg. 30). So 581GP and 4SP can be converted to minimal weight as 116pp, 1gp and 4SP, which is 121 coins or 12.1 lbs. If you add 1 sp, you can convert the 5 sp to 1 ep, which will save almost 1/2 pd.

I prefer to keep the shared funds with one of the banks, on account of a dragon flying around and the mule possibly being eaten eventually, lol. Let's vote.

For the party fund, do you want to... Public

Store it with one of the banks?
Carry it ourselves?

I voted to carry selves, but will go with majority. :)

DM? Can we convert between gp/pp etc, for "free" or is there a cost for moneychangers?
Provided you are in a suitable location (e.g. Gosterwick), I'll say you can freely convert between denominations of currency. However, whilst adventuring, you have to carry what you find.

Storing will also keep part of our possessions safe if another band of adventurers decides to take our stuff.

Thank you; that will save us a few pounds!

It looks like most of us have voted to keep the pool with a bank. Which?... Public

Rarities factor, min 150 gp, -0.75% per month
Silent factor, min 500 gp, -1.5% per month
Prosperity factor, min 250gp, -1% per month

While Zach may not be smart enough to figure it out, he will likely visit all three in character to decide on where to keep his own funds. I’m not sure he’s just going to trust the cheapest bank, but he may not need to pay for silence either.

Getting back into swings of things tomorrow, friends. Will get into the bookkeeping etc. Thanks for your patience. :)

Sorry - forgot I'd already created a Party Loot thread! This would be a better place to keep track of the Party Pool.

The opening balance following your expenditure in Gosterwick is 394 gp.

Is this after paying for one month of the porters, or is that in arrears? Also, did we pay for a pole for each to double their carrying capacity?
