Well, magicians with vast amounts of extra money can certainly do things to
make other characters happy. If those other characters have karma to burn,
they might offer karma to the Free Spirit of the mage's choice (with the mage
helping to improve the ratio) in exchange for vast amounts of nuyen-- and the
mage can then get things *they* want from the Free Spirit...
