If you are currently sitting last in your league, the earnings that were calculated until that point are not modified, each place higher and you get a bonus earning that equals 10% of the currently calculated earnings for each place up (happy fans )
Example. Your calculated earnings are $ 10,000
If you are last in the league, that what you get.
If you are 9th, you will get 10% more, so $ 11,000
If you are 8th, you will get 20% more, so $ 12,000
...
If you are 1st, you will get 90% more, so $ 19,000
