The Game

8/12/06

Our Game

Katie and Kirsten came over today to play Cashflow. When we sate down, they asked how to play the game. We started simple with what the dreams were, how to get out of the rat race, what to rat race is, how to set up the sheets, what an asset is, and what a liability is, what’s a charity, getting downsized, and what to do with children. We also told them what passive income is!

When we actually started playing the game, it was slow. But as time passed, we started to pick up speed, but every now and then it slowed back down so Karly and I could teach a new concept. Deals were the most fun, and at one point Karly grabbed a big deal, but it cost too much. That was when Katie and I jumped at the opportunity as a partnership. From then on, we were on fire!

Because of time, Karly was the only one to get out of the rat race. She had started out as a mechanic, while Katie was a janitor, Kirsten a secretary, and I was a teacher. We each had one of the best jobs possible (as far as getting out of the rat race). Only, Katie didn’t do much with her passive income, only with her cash on hand. She was bummed, but thought it was a wonderful idea to start a club and was eager to come back again.

At the next game, we plan to have more players. We will start with the basics as we did today, and as the game progresses, we will start showing the harder concepts that we have learned over time.

But the thing that I think is best is that everyone has fun!
