 great educational product August 24, 2010
Lea A Grimshaw (St. Charles, MO United States)
Loved playing the game. The whole family got involved right away. It's engaging and not too long like Monopoly. I didn't like that the assets couldn't be sold later, but I understand that many kids couldn't figure that in at this age. My 10 and 12 year old enjoy the game and fully seem to grasp the financial concepts from the very beginning. It was amazing. They've watched us do all of these tasks in real life, so it's fun for them to do things like buy and rent real estate or buy stocks or a small business. It's great for them to have to decide whether to pay now or take on a recurring debt like credit card payments. Wow! What a great thing for them to understand at this age! The P&L and Balance Sheet are so easy to use. I'm sure kids don't totally understand the implications of it the first times through but they can play it right away and understand more each time. Loved that you win when you retire...passive income exceeds expenses...and you don't have to work anymore. What a great goal to set for the game.
Fun exposure to elementary money concepts for elementary kids July 19, 2010

These days it seems we are constantly bombarded with advertisements about cool, interesting, and potentially useful things - all that we can have right now, for just a small ongoing payment. It sounds so easy, and the calls are so constant, our kids probably think it is the normal way of life.
For many it is, but it shouldn't be.
Help your kids learn to make better financial decisions - invest in this game.
Your kids will quickly learn how finances are impacted by seemly small decisions that have long term effects. Buying "doodads" vs different types of investments, how to know if something is really an asset or a just liability disguised as an asset, how you can't always count on luck, and more.
This game seems well suited for elementary kids (ours were 8 and 10), and will serve as a quick introduction to the differences between buying & investing, and *real* assets & liabilities. Your kids (hopefully) will quickly learn/outgrown this level and be ready for the next level, CashFlow 101. When that happens, be sure to pass on your "Cashflow for Kids" to another family, the more kids who start out knowing this basic level of financial decision making, the better our future.
(Now if only we could get some folks in DC to learn some simple financial concepts.)
My kids like playing it and so do I. May 20, 2010

Bought this for my 9 and 10 year olds. They immediately liked it and understood it. We've played it 3 times now, and they still like it. The concepts are easy for them to understand, and they now know that buying "doodads" like jet-skis on a credit plan is bad news to the monthly budget. This game also comes with a really informative book, and CD, both of which are geared towards teaching adults the concepts, and both of which are top notch! The only drawback is you need a pretty big space to play this game. There's a lot of stuff that comes with it. But it's no more stuff than you have with LIFE or MONOPOLY games. Buy this game!
 Great game for kids May 4, 2010

Great game for kids! Teach them the concept of investment. And also give them a whole new idea of how to manage their money spending!

I bought this game for my ten-year-old grandson, and we played, with his 12-year-old brother. Having played a lot of different kinds of board games with them, I know what they like and can tell how they feel about games.
This game was way too much work for the amount of fun it delivered. The banker is working all the time, giving out money, taking in money, and a zillion other duties. Nearly every turn on the board necessitates financial transactions. There's not much suspense or competition--when someone won it was almost anticlimactic. I doubt the kids are going to be playing the game much. Sure, it's educational--but they won't learn its lessons if they don't play it, and if it isn't enough fun, they won't play. You can't fool kids. I don't recommend this game except maybe for lessons taught in school.
