WADDINGTONS RATRACE VINTAGE BOARD GAME

Product Information

The term is commonly associated with an exhausting, repetitive lifestyle that leaves no time for relaxation or enjoyment. In his book, Rich Dad Poor Dad, Robert writes about the concept of the Rat Race. In short, it’s the vicious cycle we learn from a young age that the only way to get ahead is to go to a good school, get a good job, and work harder and harder to try and get ahead. Unfortunately, the Rat Race game is a losing one. I am not a teacher, I am a play lab leader,” said Tania, who works at the Begunbari play lab in the suburbs of Dhaka. “If I am a teacher I am saying ‘do this’ and telling them what to do. I don’t give them exercise books, I just let them play.” As Gabe Zichermann says in his excellent TED Talk, Changing the Game in Education, “Humans are doing machines. We do. That’s our nature…and it turns out there’s a core biological reason why we do, and it’s an amazing little neurotransmitter called dopamine.”

The good news is that more and more schools have been using these games as teaching products in their classrooms. However, the best news is that the public likes these products. The board games sell well to private individuals—as well as to community organizations, churches, and youth programs. These are people who want to improve financial education for themselves and their members and look to sources outside traditional schools to learn.There is a growing mountain of evidence supporting Dale’s claim through the Cone of Learning that we learn best by doing, such as playing games, rather than by listening and reading (lectures and books).

The reason for this is because the Rat Race makes you entirely dependent on other people: your parents, your teachers, your boss, etc. And it completely shuts off your mind from other possibilities and ways of living and thriving in the world. If you want to break out of the Rat Race of life, the best way to increase your financial education is to play and then do. CASHFLOW the Board Game is designed to help you play over and over again, learn from your mistakes, and be ready to start investing in real life. It is designed to help you break free from the Rat Race and experience financial freedom. Break out of the Rat Race by doing, not thinking In many cases, it’s the marketplace, not school, that is filling the void of this need for humans to learn by doing. The marketplace does it through games—a method that much of the traditional education system ignores. Jeux et Stratégie magazine praised Ratrace for its accessibility to new players, comparing the game to Monopoly. [3] Jon Freeman, in his book The Playboy Winner's Guide to Board Games, described the game positively, stating that Ratrace "has many of the virtues of Careers: It's a friendly game, it doesn't take too long..., and no one is eliminated. [5] The term "rat race" was used in an article about Samuel Goudsmit published in 1953 entitled: A Farewell to String and Sealing Wax~I in which Daniel Lang [2] wrote,LEARN MORE AND MORE AS YOU PLAY! Playing CASHFLOW will train you to become wealthy and change your life forever. As you play you’ll learn about yourself, your financial style and how it matches up against your opponents. Sharpen your financial literacy and hone the concepts of investing and money making. Are you typically as saver? Try out aggressive investing Are you typically a risk taker? Maybe try steady growth.

The power of play is evident in the benefits derived from it. In Bangladesh, where play labs are slowly growing to become a part of the formation of young children, teachers and parents alike are changing their mindset about what it means to educate children. At Rich Dad, we are committed to the power of games to change people’s financial lives. We spent a lot of time and resources to turn CASHFLOW into a digital online game that anyone can play for free. There is a growing conviction among many of my friends in academic circles that the university today is no place for a scholar in science. A professor's life nowadays is a rat-race of busyness and activity, managing contracts and projects, guiding teams of assistants, bossing crews of technicians, making numerous trips, sitting on committees for government agencies, and engaging in other distractions necessary to keep the whole frenetic business from collapse. Those words are important because they map to an important development in education by Profesor Edgar Dale called “The Cone of Learning.”

In the Rat Race, you rely on other people to mind your business for you. And, as we can see from the example of those play labs in Bangladesh, those people often do not want you to play or have fun. They want you to work, work, work as hard as you can. Metaphor referring to an endless, self-defeating, or pointless pursuit Artist's depiction of the modern day rat raceContained in the simple statement, “I am not a teacher, I am a play lab leader,” is great wisdom. The difference between telling kids what to do versus letting them learn from doing, including making mistakes, is the difference between creating sub-servient employees and innovative entrepreneurial thinkers. Moving from a job of high strenuosity to one of lesser strenuosity, like the tang ping lifestyle of young Chinese Escape (Free Yo Mind From This Rat Race)" was released as the b-side of " Glam Slam", the second single from Prince's album Lovesexy and was later included on The B-Sides compilation. A number of years ago, Arizona State University, another prominent university, also evaluated our CASHFLOW Game. Unlike the university that didn’t have time for games and didn’t want to teach kids about money, ASU found that CASHFLOW was a great tool. In fact, they said that Robert Kiyosaki’s game, CAHSFLOW, was “the closest simulation of the real thing.” This provides an insight to an important rule about business: “Don’t go where you’re not wanted.” In other words, it is easier to make money and to effect change where you’re wanted.
