How much do you usually keep in surplus? And does anyone know whether the surplus that is shown for other civs is their actual treasury, or the per-turn amount that is left over? Early game, I try to get to $1,000 as quickly as possible and then stay there. Mid-game it's more like $2,000, late game it's $3,000. Unlike Civ2, I don't seem to be able to acrue much beyond that. Also, unlike Civ2, there doesn't seem to be as much of a point, since you can't "buy" cities with your spies.
