I am wondering about the use of “Money from players sold added to transfer budget” in investments.

The positive point, I guess, is that is makes points more valid. And perhaps also that it gives more options/choices. There are some negative points though:

• People will be less inclined to sell by it, especially if you have little points invested in it.
• People lose money by it (or at least it feels that way), which is a bad feeling.

To make points more valid, there are other options. Introducing other categories of investments would be good, but lets just look at this one. If we remove it (and with it some points for every team as compensation), would that make the game better or worse?

My feeling is that it wouldn’t be missed if it would be removed.
