Not having played yet, it seems to me there could be a simple "sandbox" mode where you would simply disable the buying and selling of stock, preventing the game from ever ending yet having everything else work. Obviously this would cause some AI silliness as well as put a serious strain on all math and UI design elements as the numbers continued to grow. Seems like a good stress test!
