BGSU Finances 101

Finances 101 

• Fall Date: October 27, 2026 
• Spring Date: March 9, 2027 
• Location: BGSU Student Union 

The FREE life-sized game that teaches High School Students about the financial demands of the real world.

Students travel around a life-sized game board. Some of life’s choices lie in the draw of the cards, the roll of the dice or the spin of a wheel.

Students may payout money to be in a friend’s wedding, have a winning lottery ticket, pay an unexpected visit to the emergency room or get a promotion at work.  There is uncertainty around every corner, along with opportunities to make sound financial decisions too!

Students learn:
•About earning a salary and paying bills and taxes
•What it costs to run a household
•How earnings impact buying decisions
•What responsibilities lie ahead in the adult world
