Description

This board game stresses the importance of home ownership, insurance, and investments. You set a time limit, for example 1 hour, start playing the game, and whoever has the most money and assets with the least debt, wins! If anyone runs out of money, they must drop out of the game. Spin the wheel to move along the board and experience dental bills, groceries, collecting interest of saving certificates, repairs for appliances, renting, buying clothing, and that's just the beginning. This game exposes the realities of economics and the value of being financially independent. ~ Jon

Publisher's Description of Budget Game

"I'll never get out of this financial mess until I follow a budget!" Why not learn what it means to live by a budget? Before each trip around the game board, players plan a budget and receive $2,000. They experience the realities of real-life economics as they buy a home or rent an apartment, pay insurance costs, make investments, buy groceries and clothing, repair fire damage, collect commissions, etc. If the budget projection is reasonably accurate, the player collects a bonus on payday! The winner is the player who has the greatest wealth at the end of play. For 2-4 players.
