Time

Time is a mysterious substance that all those playing Real Life are given. However, doing anything at all within Real Life depletes a given player's store of Time, and when they run out, they are forced to stop playing the game. Some of the players in Real Life have shorter stores of Time than others, and will run out of it far faster. Previously, it was thought that no matter what players do, even if they are extremely Successful, they cannot change the store of Time that has been allotted to them. However, recent research into the universal laws of Real Life suggest that those players that choose to maintain and hone their "Health" and "Happiness" stats as opposed to pursuing "Appearance" and "Shallow" meters can slowly gather more Time. Sometimes, however, the allotted amount of Time cannot be changed, and unlucky or premature players are forced out of the game simply due to how the game is run. 
Most players have different senses of Time; while for some, Time is used up far too quickly, for others, it seems to last a very long time, and it is very rare to a perfect balance to be found. For players who wish for an occurence requiring a large amount of Time, or those who are unsatisfied with the current place they are in Real Life, wasting Time is an enjoyed hobby. Wasting Time can be very difficult, but is achievable; however, many players regret wasting Time when their stores are nearly empty, as wasted Time is gone from a player's given amount instantly, and cannot be regained. Sometimes, players who have many troubles grow wiser and stronger by patiently using Time wisely, while those who waste too much Time on things such as the "Shallow" meter are generally unhappy. Additionally, studies show that younger players who throw away some of their Time early in efforts to become more mature or an adult quicker generally regret doing this. 
As previously mentioned, finding a balance in a player's given sense of Time is very difficult. However, the players who are aware of struggles in sense of Time and those who wish to preserve as much of it as possible, using all of their Time well, can sometimes find this balance. It is known that while some of the aforementioned players do achieve this, others are unlucky, and their Time is gone before they know it.
