Thanks for the question, because it points out that this aspect of the game isn't easy to understand. I've added a tooltip in the newest version to explain them, but this is just a workaround. I have to see how to explain them better in the game.
Points are needed to advance to a higher level, which also increases your income multiplier. 1/8 means you have 1 point and need 8 for the next level. You gain points by resetting your game progress with the reset button. The more money you have, the more points you get.
The intention of the points is, to avoid punishing players for not immediately resetting the game when they have enough money. Players who want to continue to play or come back after a long break, just get more points when they decide to reset the game.
Please let me know when anyone knows a better metaphor for this.
