As you get to handle deeper levels, money will become no problem.
You can also cheat a bit through use of backup & transfer to get

The second scenario is packaged separately and says what level you need.

Gold/Silver/Bronze keys and Blue ribbon each get you into places you

level 4 when you press D.

Ditto.
