Day Job Roll Question


Pathfinder Society

Silver Crusade 3/5

I'm reading the Pathfinder Society Field Guide and came across on purchasing businesses and how they give a Circumstance bonuses and circumstance bonuses stack. These bonuses can go to day job rolls and you can purchase more then one business of the same type. So my question is if I buy 5 Mercantile Store and each one gives +1 circumstance bonus to profession merchant for day job roll does that mean I get a +5 circumstance bonus to profession merchant job roll? I'm wanting to make sure I'm reading this right.

Businesses

While adventuring can be lucrative, it doesn’t provide the
job security some Pathf inders might wish for, nor does it
provide a creative outlet for those with an artistic f lair. As
such, many Pathf inders own or operate small businesses
on the side when not traveling the Inner Sea for the Society.
A PC may purchase the same business more than once,
with each purchase representing the endeavor’s growth
over time. Circumstance bonuses granted by businesses
stack, including for multiple instances of a given vanity.
You can purchase more than one business, but this does
not increase the number of times per session that you can
make a Day Job check.


Well, it would seem like a big waste of PP first of all, since you can use PP to buy wands and things.

This bit seems to confirm that you can. I have a hard time imagining that it would be worth it though.

"Bonus Types: Usually, a bonus has a type that indicates

how the spell grants the bonus. The important aspect of bonus types is that two bonuses of the same type don’t generally stack. With the exception of dodge bonuses,most circumstance bonuses, and racial bonuses, only the better bonus of a given type works (see Combining Magical
Effects).

Not only does the Core Rulebook confirm that most circumstance bonuses stack, but it is written plainly in the Field Guide that those particular bonuses stack. It also makes sense, if you're simplifying real life, that the more successful businesses you have the more money you're making.
