They're subsidized by the local council like all Spanish teams. It also means the council get a share of ticket sales and they can't inflate ticket prices so it holds them back as much as it helps them. It gets blown out of proportion because the council overpaid the club for Madrid's old training ground which funded a few big name transfers.
