Mafia Wars question...? (When should I cap energy?)?

[zanggazq]

I play on Facebook. I am a Level 51 Maniac. I am just wondering when I should stop putting points into my energy stat?

I know some friends that have like 1500 energy, and it just seems like a big waste to me. Sure they might be able to do more jobs quicker, but in the long run isn't that 1500 more points I could have put into defense/attack? Here are my stats so far:

Energy: 283 (Planning on stopping at 300...)
Health: 120
Attack: 50
Defense: 25 (Plan on raising after capping energy...)
Stamina: 10

Any advice guys, or your stats? Any help is appreciated! I will give out a best answer.

getting further is good, but if you get to far and don't have the attack and Defense stats to back up the distance you gotten then you could end up being screwed.

I don't play this game so I recommend putting what points you need in energy until you feel you move enough daily then put the rest in Defense and attack.

You should upgrade your energy always... when you got to 500, use only 2 points to upgrade, but always upgrade it, because you'll need it later.
