I would have to check how much money I spent on Steam every year.

But lets say I buy 5 games for 60 per year, that would be 300 per year.

Google tells me that 50k AUD are 30k Euro, so I would need 100 years to get 30k.

That's a big "lol nope" right now.

But lets go deeper:
This would mean that I'm not going to buy any console titels anymore either, as long as they are available on steam.

It would also mean that I'm going to get all these decent, but stupidly overpriced DLCs.

And it would also mean that price increases or inflation would not affect my games anymore.

I'm currently not in a dire need of money, so 30k would not change my life right now.

And, most of all, I would probably save years of lifetime because I don't have to ponder "should I buy it? should I wait for a sale? Will I actually play that for more than 5 hours?" for every single game.

I honestly think this deal isn't that unequal in the long run, especially since you have to convert the 50k AUD in some other currency first.

If you need the money right now, or truely want to invest that money somewhere else, the money is obviously the better idea, but the steam option is just incredibly comfortable and not bad in the long run either.
