some tips

– only rely on hardware for Processing Power at the very start. take a look at the wiki and go after .moar files with P. Power ASAP.

– always equip the +luck boxes at rollover

– put some points (let’s say, 10) into Frugality at the start, later on Upkeep. 15’s what I use, most people settle for less. Don’t get Luck until the endgame, keep your Offense and Defense high.

– don’t forget you can re-do your stats every four days. Use this.
