I don't spend much time fishing, so I think your friends would
probably be doing alright in the house department.

Fishing-money is trivial compared to the money you can make from
buying/selling Turnips.

Ah, another feature that encourages you to "play again tomorrow",
that: You buy Turnips on Sunday, and then each day of the week you
go ask Tom Nook how much he's paying for Turnips.  Each day he pays
more or less than you paid for them.  If you don't sell by the end
of the week, then they go bad.
