When I got started on FB I was not aware that you could exchange coin for temporary protection. Well I guess you could say I figured that out. and don't get me wrong, I think it makes a lot of sense for that to be available to people for whatever reasons they wish, as it is from my perspective a legit use of coin, as well more importantly it is particularly helpful to those that have to take a break because they are too busy sometimes on Earth than to deal with their simcountry as much as they otherwise would.
However I found that I don't really care to exchange my coin for any thing other than this invincibility status. Perhaps I am misusing this feature, but I always have my "temporary" war protection active.
I mean, what's a better way to spend coin than make your country completely unattackable??
The point of what I'm saying is, that I've adjusted my strategy as I've figured things out. I've
When you have 4 enterprises and 3 empires to run temp war protection is the least of worries. I burn through around 6gc a day just to keep my entities from expiring. That, and I spend lots of gc every day on build 3 corp per month boosters as I gain millions of population per game month in my countries... My endless greed for cheap expansion Requires gold coins. I'm down to a pretty low supply right now from going inactive for a month...

If you're going to make the most use to burn coins just buy a whole bunch of pros. Also I can't get another gc reward for a few years... I guess getting first place was a bad thing and I wish I known sooner. They need to make another account wide system for gold coin awards.
Yeah you should always go for second place for that reason, but I'm sure you already figured that out the hard way as I did.

War Levels on FB are worthless.
You should have 21 days protection then you are fair game. PERIOD.
