If you're going to use RP's you might as well make the Armor wait as short as you can. Just spend 6rp s to take 9 hours off the clock. Not only do you get 9 hours but 6RP's gets +3 Atk so 2RP/1 Skill Point is an awesome ratio. Way better than the 2.4RP/1 Skill from the Depot (if you build them one after another for 12RP's) OR the 3.5RP/1 Skill from the Marketplace. Just wait a bit and space your builds out. They don't have to be one right after the other.

As for the Mega Casino and the Hotel collection, the best advice I can give you is this: When a New Mission is coming out (read the Mafia Wars Loot Lady Blog so you know when it is) Take the "Collect Properties" button OFF your checklist, don't collect ANYTHING unless it's required by the mission and when it IS required by the Mission, collect it one at a time and leave the others alone. I also don't start wars, build any Weapons/Armor/Animals/Vehicles, build from my Italy Port (they love to screw you in Italy) OR build from my Brazil Shops when I know a Mission is coming out. Like I said you can read when they come out and plan accordingly. I'm on my last armor and honestly this isn't going to be tough. Just have patience, Zynga doesn't make money if the player has patience. They make money from all the people who need to have all the new stuff right here, right now. <--- My Two Cents. They only thing worth spending RP's on is the build speedup's for Atk or Def skills and charity items. Everything else fades away.
