I'm too lazy to do the calculations myself...can someone tell me if it's cheaper to hire Strong-Backed Labor from Clay Men or just to do it in the Sidestreets? Thanks!

I will accept any social actions on Fallen London(unless its a box of live rats. I already got rid of the d---ned things once and am not eager to repeat the endeavor).

How is 11 AP for a 13.5E item "terrible"? If an early POSI player (and those are most likely to need SBL) averages around 1 EPA on a good day?
Not everyone is at endgame with capped stats. Most people needing SBL barely have stats for Wilmot's End - and that is by creators' design. That does not make their experience invalid or awful - they are playing the game as intended. They might even (gasp!) enjoy playing it.
Yes, you can grind second chances for stats, grind AotB for cash and skip the rest. It's a valid choice. But not the only valid one.

But buying it in the Clay Quarters also affects your Quirks, I think. It increases your Ruthless, or decreases your Magnanimous, or both.

Tanith Wyrmwood: Longshanks cat-burglar; Bohemian author; now, perhaps, something more. Bubbly, expressive, and affectionate. It’s not only still waters that run deep. Telemachia Lee: Gentle lady by birth, brawling Docker by choice. Good company in the drunk tank.
