As was pointed out to me in a previous suggestion, the presence of thug/gangsters with countless bodyguards is not something which will soon disappear due to the fact new accounts can simply buy credits and then sell them to raise the cash to buy bodyguards.

This is  unrealistic and provides players who are willing to spend real money an advantage in the game. Therefore I suggest that a feature where you can leave money in a will to your future generations could be implemented. I realise most players do this by sending money to a friend, but the addition of this feature could legitimise the procedure  and prevent those who are willing to spend money  on the game too much of an advantage.

I realise there are likely to be plenty of issues with this suggestion but I hope it is a way of creating a slightly more level playing field by helping reward players who have spent a long time  on ther previous accounts rather than money.

Buy credits with the money you earn on your account. They are attached to your master account so they will be available on the next character you create, this is not needed.

I tend to agree with DeadlySin here. The Credit Market place is there to utilised however you deem necessary. Anyone with fears of death can use their game cash to procure Credits that are passed onto their next of kin.
