Play Finances 101!
Finances 101 is a free game designed by Northwest Ohio Credit Unions to teach teenagers about the financial demands of the real world.
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
