BeFree for Starters is a fast-paced financial literacy card game where players simulate real-life money decisions-like investing, taking loans, and managing cash flow. In each turn, players draw cards to either invest or borrow, aiming to grow their net worth. They receive passive income, pay interest, and can buy, sell, or repay strategically. The game is played in cycles. After two simulated years, players update their net worth. The first player to reach $1,000,000 in net worth (Cash + Assets – Loans) wins. Perfect for teens, families, and educators, the game teaches smart financial habits through fun and dynamic gameplay. -description from the publisher
