Ok... so I've raised and raised the price that I'm willing to pay for points to no avail. The little business that I get hardly even scratches my need for points. I'm presently paying well more than anyone else in the game, I can only a**ume that the point economy is seriously screwed up.
I know others are having this same problem because they have expressed their frustration with the inability to provide bankspace for the money they are making... For instance I'll break down bank space.
10 points provides enough bankspace for 100,000 cash.
I'm presently paying 25,000 per point.
So it costs 250,000 cash in order to bank 100,000 cash!
Are you kidding me?
I've burned through 125,000 points since the round switch, I'm now pretty much out of points... I'm at a loss...
Any thoughts???

All of us has the same problem.. Bankspace is the sinkhole of points..
But unless there's another new purpose for points, there's no better use for it than bank space right? Even if points would become easier to get, where would one spend them? The bankspace is the best investment that we have for our points.. So in the end, its going to be a neverending problem..

I didn't have to do it but I did it to say, that I didn't have to do it but I would anyway..

Well then bankspace should at least be cheaper... one or the other, it should either be cheaper or we need more of them. What's the point in providing bankspace if it's impossible to protect all your money.

I don't know.
I feel like there aren't enough points in circulation, I'll grant you that.
However, I don't think the bank allowance is overpriced.
You aren't supposed to collect a fortune, and it costs a short-term investment to provide a long-term additional storage of points.
I think there is something missing though.
My problem is that MORE points == MORE exp growth from points.
Maybe points could be a bit less rare, without affecting growth too much.
The whole bank allowance thing annoys me to be honest.
I wonder if there is a better way.
I would prefer people not to have to much money, but perhaps there should be more things to buy, rather than less room to save. A proper bank wouldn't restrict how much you could save.
We need the 25% deposit thing, to force strategy, but the bank allowance seems like it could be replaced with something better.

By placing a limit on how powerful someone can be makes it so there is always going to be extra cash in the system. The only way to get the cash out of circulation would be by giving something for them to spend it on... but if there's no advantage to spend it on this item then why would they buy it.
Growth from points? Take that out of the system.... it's always been a waste of points anyways. It has never been a good deal to exchange points for exp even before the version switch.
You aren't supposed to ama** a fortune? Then why have cash at all?

if you didnt have cash, then no points to buy / no items / mods im sure you get the idea, you need some sort of econ to make a game.
