The game uses SI unit suffixes to display numbers that can get very big...

The first few suffixes, K, M, G for thousand, million, billion may be familiar to you, but the latter ones are likely unfamiliar to most people.

Once we ran out of si prefixes, we started compounding them (MY - Mega Yotta), check the table below for more details...

the achievement for "All Properties" will speed up the rate at which properties earn their money.

Once a business plan has been put into place, the time for an investment to earn one more "tick" is fixed.

== Optimization for this Effect ==

This tip is primarily intended for immediately after resets when you have higher amounts of experience.

In order to optimize your cash flow, do not start the Omani and Saudi fields right away, get the levels of every property as high as possible before starting. This will apply a large speed bonus
