If you set your own budget are there limits or can you spend into oblivion?
Depends on your game setup. With no salary cap or budget, you can spend into oblivion. Just remember that all of those contracts will still come back to haunt you by putting you into the red, thereby keeping you from further spending. And, really, making any moves whatsoever that don't take away payroll until you're making money again.
