I was just wondering, my company always has max. 400.000 Caps in cash while I see other companies on the market with over 100.000.000 Caps --> I don't really see the point in bunkering so much cash
I mean in real-life money just standing around is wasted money (think about interest rates). I guess in Kapilands you should use that money to buy steel/stones/wood to expand, expand, expand until you reach the maximum Fixed assets point.
(Or give me the money to build up a proper company

)

Sometimes we build up cash for new large buildings, I have spent over 1.5B on a building before, or massive expantions. I am one of these people who like to buy everything at once rather than a small amount per day.

Well, the bigger you get, the more cash you need for production or to buy your daily supplies, and you'd always want some cash if your customer doesnt accept some contracts for 1 or 2 days, so the anmount of cash you have naturaly grows with the size of your company.

he is right i only have 400million fixxed assets and i only produce power and i STILL use 8million$ a day on productions wich isnt that much but when your produceing wardrobes and you have 3-5billion in fixxed assets and all that is going into the production of wardrobes the cost builds up pretty quick

the problem is that with proper management you make so much cash there s nowhere to put it. If you invest everything you ll just end up with all your buildings expanding and no sales/production. So people plan their expansions ahead and calculate the resources that are required.
Also another reason people keep cash available is so they can act quickly when there are good deals available. I remember always having some cash available in case a building I need is for sale or a research.
