Cashflow 101

is an educational tool in board game format designed by Robert Kiyosaki, which aims to teach the players concepts of investing by having their money work for them in a risk free setting (play money) while simultaneously increasing their financial literacy and stressing the imperative nature of accountability.

There are two stages to the game. In the first, "the rat race", the player aims to raise his passive income level to where it exceeds the expenses. The objective of the game is to get onto "the fast track".

As you work your way around the board, you receive your monthly pay check depending on your profession.

"Opportunity"

is where you will be presented with an investment opportunity such as businesses, property, shares or mutual funds etc where you can buy and make a passive income.

"Doodads"

are unexpected expenses that require you to spend your money, thus reduce your monthly cash flow.

Once you have accumulated enough assets to generate a passive income that exceeds your living expenses you are able to leave the rat race and play on the "Fast Track".

When a player buys his “dream” or accumulates an additional $50,000 in monthly cash flow, a winner is born.

This game takes about 10 to 30 minutes to setup and can be played between 2 to 6 persons at any one time, most game takes an average of 1 to 3 hours to complete.
