How much cash do you keep available for operating expenses and incidentals?
I only have a small farm with 2 tractors, 1 combine and 2 field. I try keep $20,000 in the bank for operating expenses and incidentals.

Re: Cash On-Hand
You are doing great! I always try to keep at least 5-10k in pocket when not cheating.

Well ... I try keeping my loan at zero ... so that I can use the bank credit, in case of an emergency ...

As W1der pointed out. I try to manage my FS finances just as I do in real life. so paying off the loan is a priority for me. Then I make every effort to pay cash for everything as much as I can. I also heavily utilize the rental mod when just starting out as well. Doing it this way just helps to keep the game interesting. If I cheat in a lot of money up front (and I've certainly done that before) then the game gets boring to me pretty quickly.
Happy Farming!

Re: Cash On-Hand
I never knew we can bank money. I thought what I see on the top-right is my bank balance that I can spend at anytime as I know I can spend at anytime. Encase I have missed something, can I deposit money in a bank account that I have? I'm wondering because of bank interest.
Re: Cash On-Hand
No the only thing with the bank is the loan. You can pay it off and you won't pay any interest.
