Hi All,
I have been considering buying the Cashflow game for a while but I am put off by the (relatively) high purchase price.
If any forumites are players do you consider it to be value for money?
Does anyone have a used game they would like to sell me?
Which is best Cashflow 101 or 202?
Cheers, Nobleone. [biggrin]

Hi big N,
I have played 101 and it was good to get started, but plateaued after a relatively short time. I am yet to play 202, but like you, I am put of by the high price.
I have just finished reading the “Rich dad, Poor Dad” book by Robert and, for some-one who professes to want to educate the poor, he kinda priced it out of their range, in my oppinion!I have a house and I am working on IP#1 and I can say that I don’t have the spare $300 or $110 for the game (101 or 202 respectively).
I seem to recall that 101 is required to be able to play 202 (you share the board)! So you’re up for $410 before you start! You can get Monoploy Gold edition for that!
Having said all of that, I would still like to play 202 as it is reportedly very exciting, with boom/bust cycles and people going broke, etc.Cheers

I have played the game (101), and found it an interesting talking point (pick the strategies that work best in the game but worst in real life), and would value it (as a game, not an educational tool) at less than $100. Only it’s not.
Cheers, F.[cowboy2]It is simply the best board game invented. I used to play it (202) every Monday night with a group of friends from 18 to 45 years old. The lessons learnt are fantastic.
A must have….great holiday fun. I give it 5 potatous out of 5…..Pete
