Well, this is my first post on here. But i have been playing TT and TTD for a LONG time, and i was wondering if all you masters out there repay your loan. Because i do.

Ive added a 56 day poll.

Um. Of course. Why pay interest that you don't need to?

Yes, allways.

asspecially in the beginning. When money is short.

Yes if I remember to do so.

Why worry about interest if you can make far more money by investing instead of repaying the loan? I always take out as much loan as I can spend.

Aha, but I think he meant later on in the game. When a few hundred thousands don't matter anymore. In the beginning it is the more loan the faster you earn it back.

Ehhh but when you start making a huge profit and have lots of money you should pay it back

True, once I stop caring about I always pay it back, just to get the full performance score.

I always have my loan paid off and a stable income within the first 5 - 10 years of the game.

Well, if I dont use the money sign cheat in ttdpatch, then I take out as big a loan as possible at the beginning, then once I got a couple of million... I then repay it.

I repay it asap. But sometimes I don't get the change to repay, because I am failliet.

I'm spending money until I've about 5 trains and 10 busses and then I've a steady income, then I wait and repay my loan.

I have never used the money cheat, the only one I use is the tracks one and I make it cost money.

I don't setup a passenger/mail service first I start with coal -> power station.

They seem to get income quite quickly, but then I build the passenger network when a subsity comes up so I get more than the normal cost.

The largest loan I have ever taken out was $700 000. I have it set to the $1 000 000 limit but I have never used that much.

The largest loan ive used is £200.
