Abstract
Disclosed is a highly interactive board game (102) that teaches wealth building principles in the context of business, real estate, and other investments decisions, and that teaches self- improvement through character-strengthening exercises related to integrity, spirituality, cooperation and service to others. The game as disclosed includes four closed loop paths. The first three, inside paths represent the lives of the poor (103), the middle-class (104), and the rich (105). The three inside paths are circumscribed by a fourth closed loop path (106) representing an abundant life of both wealth and happiness. Each of the loops is divided into game spaces which correspond to various game events. The game events include investment opportunities, changes in prevailing market conditions, and events and challenges related to personal growth and character development. Progress between the loops is a function of the player's decisions concerning both character-building and wealth related events.
