Really dumb finance question

Shooty Babbit · 07-31-2013, 07:40 PM

Sorry for how dumb this question probably is, but, here goes:

If I save (or earn) my owners some money by trading off dead weight midseason, or winning a few extra games, will I be able to use that money in the next season(s)?

Like, for instance, if I trade a $4M 2013 guy for a $2M 2013 guy, will I get to use that money somewhere? Or did I, ostensibly, just make the owners happy?

You made him happy.

Make the owner happy you are more likely to get an increased budget for the next year. So, indirectly you (perhaps) will get more money to play with next year.

It depends in part with how you set the budget parameter. If it is set to owner controls budget, you may or may not get the money. If not then you have saved real money that will help you.
