<section id="mon_intro" title="Introduction">
In game <i>money</i> has nothing to do with real money. It's an <i>imaginary currency</i> even if the sign used correspond to the euro sign (yes, yes, we're europeans...). <i>Money</i> is the main mean used in LegacyWorlds to acquire items, be it by <mlink to="ipp_own_bw">building</mlink> them or <mlink to="market_buy">from other players</mlink>.
<br/>
General information about the concept of <i>money</i> is provided in the <mlink to="emp_conc_cash">corresponding section of the empire manual page</mlink>. This maunal section is focused on the <i>Money page</i> of the <mlink to="game_interface">game interface</mlink>.
</section>
<section id="mon_cf" title="Current Funds">
This part of the page keeps you updated on the <i>current amount of money you have in bank</i> and that you can use to <mlink to="ipp_own_bw">build fleets</mlink>, <mlink to="ipp_own_po">improve your planets</mlink>, <mlink to="tech_topic_stat">implement technologies</mlink> or <mlink to="tech_law_status">enact laws</mlink>.
<br/>
Once your <mlink to="accga_acc">account</mlink> is <i>old enough</i>, it also provides you with a form with which you can <i>transfer cash</i> to another player. To <i>transfer cash to another player</i> fill in the <i>amount to transfer</i> in the first provided text field and the <i>player name</i> in the second one. Then click the <i>Ok</i> button.

<section id="mon_dp" title="Daily Profits">
This section of the page provides you with a quick overview of <i>your profits and losses</i> with three important figures:<ul>
<li><mlink to="mon_ppl">Planet Income</mlink>: sum of the <i>incomes</i> of all your <mlink to="planets">planets</mlink></li>
<li><mlink to="mon_fue">Fleet Upkeep</mlink>: sum of all the <i>costs</i> implied to sustain all your <mlink to="fleets">fleets</mlink></li>
<li><i>Daily Profits</i>: <i>difference</i> between the <mlink to="mon_ppl">Planet income</mlink> and the <mlink to="mon_fue">Fleet upkeep</mlink>. It's the amount of <i>money you currently earn</i> each day. This cash is delivered <i>twice a day</i> during <mlink to="ticks_tick">cash ticks</mlink>.</li>
</ul>
The two first items are links to the relevant detailled sections of the page.
