Hypothetically speaking....

So I have an alternate account that I just started using again recently which is th6, about half way to th7. I'm at this point where I'd much rather spend the time playing seriously on my main account which is almost th8, but I also want my alternate to be able to donate decent troops to my clan (and myself hehe). Since I'm not using it much anymore, I'm wondering what your guys' thoughts are on this... becoming a premmie th7/8/9 (definitely not 10 lol) but each time I upgrade the town hall, make sure to max out only the offensive upgrades such as lab, army camps, and barracks along with storages. And possibly some walls/important defenses like mortars and wiz towers. I've heard the loot penalty kills you when you're a premmie, but I'm thinking that if I max out my offensive upgrades each time, it shouldn't be too much of a problem if I go up to a high enough trophy count and just do collector raids. I'd like to eventually get witches to donate to my clan on this account along with things like lvl 5/6 archers, barbs, etc. I know I will get massacred all the time on defense, but hypothetically, do you guys think I could pull this off? I can't stay online a super long time but during the weekend I can definitely play a few hours at a time. Any ideas on this would be appreciated because I really wanna be able to donate some sick high level troops but definitely don't want to risk becoming a premmie on my main account.

Edit: and upgrade all my collectors to max

Many people do this. Im super jealous of them as they have an unlimited amount of high level troops to give. So do it!

As long as you do offensive upgrades and major defensive ones before moving on, rushing your TH on your alt really won't cause you much trouble. Being a premmie is mainly just missing out on the chance (or making it alot harder) to get high level walls. Since the purpose of the account is just to donate yourself troops, this really won't be too much of an issue for you IMO.

Do you guys think it would be fairly easy to maintain enough gold/elixir/de once I'm a premmie? Because I care about the account just enough where I don't want to ruin any opportunities to farm in the future, but I don't care about it enough to become a premmie XD

Gold is plentiful for th1-9. Not so much at th10. I've experienced too much gold for a feeder and was forced to dump gold into defenses and walls, which slows my path to max elixer upgrades.

Honestly I've maxxed collectors and spend it all on walls, log out and repeat later. May search for 5-10 minutes for collector raids.
