Why do we emphasize financial education?

The data is worrying: only 8.26% of Romanians have financial education knowledge and skills, placing Romania in last place in the European Union.

Moreover, recent research from December 2024 demonstrates that educational board games significantly increase the financial literacy of students in all dimensions: knowledge, behavior, and attitude. The study conducted on students shows clear and measurable improvements.

Current adolescents will find themselves in just a few years in the position of making major financial decisions: college, first salary, first rent, car, etc.. Without financial education, these decisions will be based more on costly trial and error than on a mature understanding of basic financial concepts.

For these reasons, we want to reach as many Romanian high schools as possible with the Cashflow game, to change the current situation and offer this vital information to future adults (details below).

What is CASHFLOW?

CASHFLOW is not a monopoly-type money accumulation game. It's a real financial life simulator created by Robert Kiyosaki to teach people the difference between assets and liabilities, between working for money and money working for you.

In the game, you'll experience: salaries, monthly expenses, debts, loans, investments, opportunities, and financial crises. All in a safe space where mistakes only cost experience, not real losses.

We create and connect together

In a country where financial education is almost completely absent from schools, the responsibility falls on each person to learn these vital lessons. CASHFLOW is the best first step - a safe place where you can make mistakes, learn strategies, and understand how money really works, before risking real money.

You'll leave with a completely new perspective on income, expenses, assets, liabilities, and financial freedom. More importantly, you'll understand WHY many people work their whole lives without ever becoming financially free.

JUST SHOW UP and experience it!

P.S. Robert Kiyosaki says: "School teaches you to work for money. CASHFLOW teaches you how to make money work for you." Romania urgently needs more financial education. Start with yourself and your family, right now!

P.S.2. Part of the fee for this event is used to be able to go for free with the "Cashflow" game to public high schools in Romania, where financial education concepts are not taught.
