Easy Money!

I found a cool way to get tons of money while still researching those techs at a pretty good rate. When ever you have one turn left to research the tech, go to the advisor screen and turn down science to 10%. Most of the time, not always, it will let you bring it way down and still only have one turn left making your surplus go way up for that one turn! Then as soon as you get the tech just go back and pump up the science! This works real well I am finding and I am for the most part keeping up with the other civs.

That happens because sometimes the amount of research needed to complete an advance is lower than the amount
you have specified with the percentage. If you do not change
it manually one turn before the tech is discovered, that extra
is lost.

But, is it really lost? maybe that part is not lost and it simply adds to the next tech to research. Does anybody know it?

Good question. I've wondered but never remember to pay attention to what happens if you are researching something and you buy it from somebody else. It automatically switches what you're researching but do you lose any turns in the process?
