Indeed, it's rather people with more than 20M on their bank account who are concerned.

Why would those people be concerned when they can buy the best TSP/price players on the market and get below whatever level they set as the minimum for the tax?

There is another measure which might come in handy. Introduce a maintenance cost to the arena: lower a bit the cost of building seats, allow the possibility to reduce seats for a fee or for free. This will hit everyone of course, but mostly people who carry large arenas they cant fill in lower divisions. The amount of maintenance must be well thought so that people have a convenience to destroy seats they don't use.

This is another money sink that will drain bank account, but more importantly will make it easier for smaller teams to compete at the next level.

With 2,6 million you'll never qualify for a HOARDING tax...

Some people don't understand... Smh

Buddy I didn't say it that I need to pay this tax.I just said clearly that was the most money I ever had.And I specified that I am not one of those who tank.

Indeed,some people don't understand...Smh


I know... but then again, you made a very questionable statement:

luxury hoarding tax will punish us for some good work.


Having 20 million in the bank is not good work. Especially if you are playing in a DIV III, where this money could buy you a roster to promote to DIV I.

Making steady profit might be good work, but at some point (hint!) you have to spend all that money, thats pretty easy to understand, innit?

Then, how would you qualify a team which has 20M on its bank account and which dominates, has trophies etc. ? Why would the manager buy new players to improve his team ?

And how would a higher salary floor impact such a team? At one point players have to be bought, as age will diminish the skills of every player.

You bring up a good point here. If you're already dominating, don't 'need' better players, and so save money for a rainy day, the luxury tax would still encourage you to spend money on something (or pay a penalty) to stay under $20MM. This would probably make your team even better, which sounds like it wouldn't be necessary if you're already dominating, but could be fun to dominate even more. Having a max of almost $20MM in the bank would still be a good sized nest egg.
(this, of course, assumes that $20MM is the limit, which we don't know yet)
