Auto-loans? (Golden Rainbow)

Greets,

Returning player (10 years or more away, i think), and I'm trying to get my hands around all the changes. OMG there are alot.

Anyway, the auto-load feature is killing me....Is there any way to turn that off? I know I'm in debt, but taking loans is not the way out. I can manage to pull out over time, but not with 30% interest tacked on every time i dip below min...

I'm about to quit out just to re-start a new country (GR), but i don't want to. Just took over my first slave (boy the changes in war sure messed me up) but I'll get over that.

Any help on this auto loan, cash generation, (selling off portfolio only hurt me more), would be appreciated. Sold off almost all military, haven't built a thing in 6 months, and debt has tripled in that time......

I'm screwed

You haven't enough population to support your increasing military in your slave and your corps. The corps are under-hiring and so not giving you much, if any, revenue, and the cost of your army is bleeding you dry.
Buying a couple of million more people and holding off/slowing down on military spending should sort you out in short order. Dont worry about the 30%, its per realtime year so adds up to not a lot.

Hope that helps.
