malichai11, I suggest this thread.

A couple of vets plus some n00bs have been thrashing out a way to compensate for general financials.txt strangeosity. We've tried everything, including sacrificing a live chicken. The latest solution is post #67 by Spritze. It contains a downloadable financials.txt file, which I suggest downloading and sticking in Program Files. After that:

1) Copy the financials.txt that's in your database folder to your OOTP 10 Baseball folder.
2) Rename it original financials.txt or some such name that reminds you that that is the original financials should you wish to go back to them (I can't see why you would frankly).
3) Copy Spritze's financials.txt from Program Files to the database folder. Your computer will freak out and ask you if you really want to replace that file. Obviously you do.
4) Rename the financials.txt file in Program Files to 19 X financials.txt or Spritze's financials.txt, so that that one is also available to you should you ever need to uninstall/reinstall the game and you forget to rescue it from the database before pushing the button of no return.

Spritze basically took max cash for every season and multiplied by 19 (don't ask me why) and took it all the way out to the year 2109 to help the fictional players. Apparently according to the crew there that have tested the heck out of it, it works, so until there's a solution or a better workaround, that could be a viable work-around.
