Conspiracy theory: Tom Nook's real endgame in Animal Crossing New Horizons was never to make money off of you, but to make money off of royalties from K.K. Slider's new song. A thread.
If you have finished the game (get a 3 star rating), you'll know K.K Slider comes to your island and performs a new song while the credits roll.

Of course, we all know it's the title screen song... but...

...didn't the vacation package video have that same song?
Same tempo, same notes, same tonality, same chord progression... you could come to the conclusion that K.K. saw the Nook Inc. package video before he wrote the song.

Which leaves K.K. Slider open to copyright violation lawsuits resulting in ROYALTIES BEING AWARDED TO TOM NOOK.
So in the end, Tom Nook will be living the life in an island paradise as money rolls into his account regardless of his tenants wanting upgrades or not: he found a way to ensure a constant flow of money that doesn't involve selling upgrades to consumers.
Tom Nook enticed you with the island life and asked you to help so that he could sue K.K Slider.

Yes, it's a dumb theory, but so are all conspiracy theories.

And yes, you read the whole thing so you share some of the blame.
