Why don't you sell Xboxes for a profit so we don't have to pay for the gold which is a...

they will probably say oh it pays for the servers, but as is common knowledge ALL third party game servers are setup, run and paid for by the devs/publishers of that game.

Don't think about it. Microsoft will do that in country where it see profit. Portugal is waiting along time and dont have, and Spain have. I don't know where you live but here we dont have rewards, quests our other things. But we pay the full price, of
gold, gamepass etc.

Why?

If you want a service then you have to pay & Microsoft have to make money somehow.

They don't make a profit on consoles so gold & gamepass are their ways of making money.Just gamepass on it's own wouldn't be enough.

It's not like it's expensive anyway & it's even cheaper if you use Microsoft Rewards if it's available in you region.

how do i tell how much profit i made on a stock? i know when the triangle is green, i made a profit. i just don't see how much i made. i don't want to sell the stock if i only made a very small profit. why buy $1,000 worth of stock just to make $100 profit?
i hate why i buy $1,000 of stock and only sell it for $1,100. i am not seeing how much my profit is when i sell. what am i missing?

Wouldn't retailers loose money then? Unlike Ms or sony, retailers really don't care how many consoles which company sells so long as they get some profit out of it and are able to sell games
