what do you guys think is a good amount of money for a group of 8-10 high school seniors to put in for a fantasy league? we usually do 20-30 dollars; just thought id ask

I started at $25 a head. This past year we were up to $50 a head, makes for a nice pot but everyone can afford it.

Go with $50 a team,the more $ you can win means the more competition there will be,I think.Give each team a couple free WW picks and then start charging a few bucks a piece for them to sweeten the pot.You could also add a consolation prize to the runner-up,like maybe winning his original 50 back plus maybe a little more.Also,make sure that every team is paid-up by or on draftday.That way you should be able to count on every teams full involvement.

C'mon, with all the graduation loot you'll be raking in soon, you could afford $100 a head ;-D

I like around 40 or so. It mainly depends how much you think you could afford, I dont go past 50 though

y alast year someone didnt pay up so he didnt care and that screwqed up the whole league because he made stupid trades; the last two years weve given 2nd place his money back; 20$ is a little low for something like this;
