Default Reserve Investment Fund

Im currently managing fc bayern and the board informed me they had deposited some money into the reserve investment fund.

Any idea what this is?

It think it only happens when your balance reaches over a certain amount. Say, XXX amount of millions (a lot? - I dunno - whats your balance?)

They round it down to the nearest million or hundred million or whatever, and put the excess into a high interest account maybe.

Then one day you might get the money back if your balance dwindles.

Basically your money is somewhere else, doing better things

Correct me if I'm wrong anyone!

I believe the money only comes back if the balance goes into debt of similar level to your current credit balance.

Other than that the money is gone!

Maybe it's a way to stop you having ridiculous amounts of money which, in turn, crashes the game?

I'd just like to know how much Bayern have got at this point

Doesn't crash the game tbf, just means you go from 2 billion + to 2b in the red.

And thanks to this addition, it seems that is no longer possible

Damn limitations of programming languages...

Indeed, although I haven't actually seen a screenshot of anyone who has actually gotten the money back from the investment fund, are we sure this is in the game?
