In addition to the the weekly investment it costs $2000 to promote a player from the youth squad. And you can only do it once a week.
Maybe my experience is different, but it only took me about 10 weeks or so to go to solid. I also invested only 10K for about 5 weeks or so.
Yeah, I left mine at 10k for a while and mine got to and stayed at passable. I only recently (in my third season) am contributing 20k.

If you can afford it Killamanjohno I would recommend investing $20K from the start and getting it to increase as quickly as possible.
Still takes a while. This game is about patience. Changes take place, but slowly.

My advice is to set your youth squad investment to $20,000, and then forget about it. Just leave it alone. Sure, early on the $22,000 a week ($20,000 + $2,000 for the pull) is pretty steep, but it'll all pay off in the end if you play long enough. My first season alone I pulled a solid keeper and solid playmaker, and I've made as much as a $1,000,000 profit in a single season. I've lost money over the course of a season as well, but thems the breaks.
Oh, and if you decide not to invest, still pull a player every week. never, EVER go a week without pulling someone up. It's like the lottery, you never know when you might pull the almighty gem of players that will garner a king's ransom on the transfer market.

That's 9 seasons to pull an excellent in a primary skill (playmaking, scoring, defending, keeper). In the past I've pulled an excellent winger (horrible other skills) and an excellent set pieces (sold for over $150k I think).
So there's still hope!

I am still waiting to pull a solid in a main skill area, I've pulled one with solid stamina but that's it.
