Salary Data
It's been a few years since we created our Panjango Trumps cards and inflation is starting to impact the salary data on the cards. While this doesn't affect the gameplay at all, we want you to be able to provide the most accurate and up-to-date information to your students.
So we've put together some updated salary information below for you to use alongside the game. We've also expanded the data to include starting and highest salaries, as well as the average salary figures.
