Lending cash I earned to market

[Ryan]

I hate inflation really, and I think there is no way to keep value the cash my company has.

I personally think lending cash to market is good way, with some interests rate.


How other people think about adding this new features?

I would love to be able to setup a bank to earn interest on money, I really haven't had a problem with playing with inflation. My company is flushed with cash and there's ways to burn through it but doesn't seem a lot of ways to use your capital to build additional wealth. If you feel like you're wasting money by keeping it on the books buy every media firm that comes up for sale....they tend to provide a decent return.

If my company, or even my person has a vast amount of money, having the ability to loan it out would be awesome!

Actually in the real world of financial market and institutions, money is never just piled up inside a big vault, but constantly been lent out and circulated into house holds (real cash is usually very low, but in the form of deposits or securities). We probably need a whole new financial mechanism in game to represent the gigantic financial sector. The "bank" in game is really not functioned like in real world (It's really not just supply and demand for cash).

Maybe some mechanism of bond market can be implemented. Corporate bonds and other bills, even city or state issued ones can be interesting additions to the game.

Yes I totally agree. Right now I always end up with tons of cash and end up just buying more and more stock with it. That or I buy land. Having a bond market to invest in would provide another source of cash when necessary and a means of investment.
