better spent where? trading and happiness? are there any other uses for cash?

What the hell are these things? Am I actually building up to something or am I wasting my money by investing in them? They seem to be just sort of markers to say "you're all done, but we'll keep working for you anyway." Do they have any point?

I notice often when I click on a city view that several buildings may be destroyed (after an attack or civil disorder). Is there a way that I can know what buildings have been destroyed without going to the city close up (for each city) and checking for destroyed buildings? (and it's rather a...
