Seriously people, if you are so against paying for coaches, then maybe you should be quitting the game by now.

Why not just double the number of flex to boost! If you are so against paying for boosting, maybe you should just quit!



Indeed. What's the silliest part of this is you honestly believing that you can get some sort of campaign to boycott coaches to begin with. How about investing that time in gameplanning, or something.

Well, I was wrong in the number of people who would be against coaches in general. Only way to find out is to ask.

I'm sure Bort didn't intend for this to be about the money. Even still, no one can deny that more money is the immediate side effect.

this.

You should ask yourself the question of whether or not you often act like a complete jerk, that way you have the answer to realize that you should change your ways for the betterment of yourself and the others around you.

Money, whatever the amount, is always worth more now than it is later.

What about in cases of deflation?

Because now teams will NEED coaches to be successful... unless we boycott them. Coaches cost flex to boost. The cost of running a team has gone up by 10 players.

If you don't use coaches you could still buy my strategy guide service to compensate for the loss. It might be cheaper for the long term to buy that than it is to pay all the flex for your coaches over a medium-term time period. So if you want to save money while still being competitive then go for it, otherwise don't make excuses in the future and say that there wasn't an alternative.

Has anyone written the chapter on how to stop ICE COLD? If not, can I write the chapter?

Nope, but you can if you want. If it's any good I will be happy to incorporate it into my teachings. I don't care where I get information and enhancements to my information from if it can help me to take things to a higher level.

Good question. There's an important distinction that needs to be made between (1) the buying power of money (inflation/deflation) over time and (2) the absolute mathematical value of money. When I said that money is always worth more now, I was referring to the second. It's all about opportunity cost. If I told you that I could either give you $1000 right now or $1000 exactly one year from now, which would you choose? If you chose to get $1000 from me a year from now, that sum would still be worth only $1000. However, if you chose to have the $1000 right now, you could invest it and make it worth even more at the end of one year. Maybe the investment is as simple as a CD at a bank. The investment could also be in creating GLB strategy guides which you could turn around and sell for even more money. Whatever strikes your fancy. =)

Lolmods saying it isn't a cash grab. Bort's running a business, of course he's trying to get more money. You can say retirement flex all you want but that already promised to you whenever you're done with the player, so its not like huge favor that he's allowing us what was already gonna happen.

He's adding a new element to the game that looks like it will be an absolute necessity to teams that want to compete, and it's going to cost more money.


Ok so you get back this retirement flex, what did you plan on doing with it? Making another player anyways right? What's the difference between using that retirement flex to make a coach or another player?

Pretty much what Phoenix and Collins said, boost the players i have for a couple seasons and see if i still want to continue paying to play when it runs out. I think most people would rather have a player than to pay flex for some VAs for your team, which is basically what coaching seems like to me tbh. Coaching could be overcome with gameplanning sure, but at the top levels you need every advantage you can get, and this is just making you pay for it imo.

You could do what I did and find out that you can get a ton of interest free loans beyond what you need and put the money into the stock market and earn free money. Unless the market tanks, like it did about 10 years ago for me and ended up completely backfiring on me. Fun times!

But in all seriousness that's what you should do. It's statistically unlikely for the stock market to lose value over a period of years, depending on how much time you have left.

What a great strategy.
