Something general... How much do people think is wise to spend on their teams?

How much CA$H are people leaving in the bank for future trades?

or

Should you try and put the whole 10 million into your team from the get go?

i was planning on keeping some aside again this year, but have changed direction and spent to the hilt.
having, say $400k in the bank isn't going to do you much good until about Rd 6-8 by which time you probably would've missed out on a lot of points.

it is true that that $400k would equate to 80 points p/w.
on the other hand, while cash cows might not mature till rds 6-8, other trade opportunities will arise...especially for coaches who have elected to hold off on the likes of abblett, hodge, riewoldt etc (or any quality that gets off to a slow start and drops in price early). How handy would $$$ be in these situations? Injured players might be another scenario where $$$ may come in handy - creating more oprions for replacements/upgrades.

I'm not convinced either way...just trying to generate discussion and tease out the pro's and con's.

For those holding back a little... how much $ are you keeping in the bank?
