What can i do with money earned as manager?

[ParkereK]

Hello! I have a question.. If i am signing contract with my club, of course there is a salary i'm gonna earn.
If my club has financial problems so i can easily reduce my salary because its nothing to do with this money.
So my question is.. can i *as manager* do with my money? Like bet or something?

Nothing - it's a just a salary

It adds job stability as the more you earn, the more the club would have to pay you to fire you! So that's a very important part of the salary.

I guess you've already considered it but it would be cool to have the chance of buying a club with that money. For example, Piquè (FC Barcelona) is the owner of FC Andorra :)

We've discussed this a bit in the past - essentially there are lots and lots of considerations for any money earnt in game if it's done as a simulation, which FM strives to be.

If you earn money, it needs to be taken into account how much is taxed? How much is for the mortgage? Do you have kids and pets? Do the kids go to private schools or normal? What brand of food does the pets eat? What about holidays? And a car? All these things add up, so not every bit of money earnt in game as a manager would be available to invest somewhere else - say into another football club.

For that reason we've left it out of the game and have no plans to bring it in. Our game is a football management simulator, not an arcade 'life simulator' in the sense that spending money like that would have to be.

At least with that money, we can pay for our coaching license - instead asking the board.

doing stuff with money would add a bit of depth to football manager. I no it is a football manager game so not much needs changing but when was there a big game changing mechanic? the game has not changed for so long now and yes i no there are not loads of stuff you need to change but i am getting bored now between NOV-FEB now which never happened before i still like the game but just a few things could make a big difference.
