I did misspeak, now THATS margin. And the micro's wonder why people want them annexed, merged, turned into rump states or whatever the flavor of the week is on that front.

I think i have a high profit margin for a non-tanking II. div. team in a large nation:

$ 128 183 / $ 411 740 = 0,31

I could even sell my 30k Center any time... as I tried to the last few weeks..
but my league isn't very strong, my team is quite good for its salary and I make around 90k merch, which is nearly 1,5x as much as the average in my league...

/btw. I wouldn't consider the profit margin a key factor in succes or something. It is not that you invest something or have the chance to invest in another business. f.e. if my profit margin is much smaller in league II than in league III, but I make 100k absolute profit instead of 50k, the first option would be much better..

Keep in mind that one cost that everyone is not counting is the cost of players on the TL. It's a little hard because you have to consider the not only the purchase price but the future price of what you sell them at and amortize the profits or losses over the number of weeks you own the player. A low salary player that you buy for a lot of money is not necessarily a better value than a high salary player that you buy cheaply even though the low salary player gives you a higher weekly income.

You should buy low and sell high with all players. Difference between what you buy someone and sell them for should be taken into consideration.
