Cashflow 101
The first time that we have ever heard of the Cashflow 101 board game was at the Blogapalooza 2015 event where Laurus Enterprises had a booth. Dave is a fan of Robert Kiyosaki but wasn't really aware of the game the author of the bestselling book, "Rich Dad Poor Dad" developed. After attending the Robert Kiyosaki Live in Manila seminar last November, Dave regretted not purchasing a Cashflow 101 of our own. That is where I come in, I pulled some strings and got us one from the US, since they ran out of stock for the game here in the Philippines at the time. It took us a while to get it, but it was worth the wait. Let's check out our happy mail!
Cashflow 101 is a board game created by Robert Kiyosaki, author of the bestselling book Rich Dad Poor Dad. The objective of this game is to “Get out of the Rat Race” and onto the “Fast Track,” how to make your money work for you – not the other way around. It is an educational board game that simulates real life financial strategies and situations. As a simulation, the players get to learn valuable lessons and gain priceless insights into personal finance and investing without having to put their actual money at risk. Cashflow 101 is the ultimate realization of Robert Kiyosaki's vision of an interactive tool for financial education, and the fulfillment of his belief that we learn best by doing. It is an educational board game that teaches accounting, finance, and investing at the same time - and makes learning fun! Move over Monopoly, Cashflow 101 is here!
