RAG's comments:
This is one of my favourite games of all time! Everytime I start to play this game,I just feel so challenged because I can put my finance management skills to test again, by role-playing different professions. Of course, the most challenging is DOCTOR!!! Basically,the board has two tracks: A "Rat Race" small circle where you only roll one die to advance, and a "Fast Track" where you roll two dice to advance. In the Rat Race you get paid for passing your Paycheck space, and then draw from one of four decks of cards depending on which space you've landed.Your main problem here is a shortage of cash. In the Fast Track your main problem is an excess of cash and finding investments to sink it into before you lose it to lawsuits, divorce or tax audits.
To me, during this tough period, this game will really help one identify 'fatal' error in the way they have been managing their finance and investments. You can then try to put what you have learnt or realised in this game to test with real money in your wallet!Be the last survivor and win the races on board and in reality! =)
