It is a combination of needing more revenue to be generated to afford the cost of expenses, primarily due to inflated contracts because of high default inflation settings and cash max settings.
If you do not want to increase revenue and expenses to balance out the revenue artificially, then its better to lower either inflation or the cash max.
My current setup
Inflation = 0% - 4% (3% if you want to be conservative)
National Media Contract Baseline = $60mill ($65mill you want to factor in new deals like Peacock)
Local Media Contract Baseline = $60mill (research suggest this number range from $40-$60mil on average: I choose 60)
Merchandise = $40mill (I added concessions under this and research suggest $10 - $20mil for concessions)
Staff Salaries = $1.5 mil (for some reason, managers are criminally cheap)
Cash Max = $1 (personal choice as I want owners to decide budget 100%)
