Unlimited money:
----------------
Note: This procedure involves editing a game file; create a backup copy of the 
file before proceeding. Use a text editor to edit the singleplayer.script SCRIPT 
file in the game folder. Look for the line similar to 
"SINGLEPLAYER_STARTINGRUS*space space space space* 750. Delete the "750" and 
replace it with four to eight number "9"s. You will get a large amount of Rus. 
If this value is too large, you will go into debt as it will become a negative 
value in the game. Also, you have to start the game over to get it to work; 
it cannot be used with saved games.
