Mapping Your Future’s Show Me the Future is a financial literacy and life skills game, designed to help 12-20 year olds prepare for their futures. The game helps players understand:
- the cost of living;
- budgeting, which is vital to financial freedom;
- the difference between wants and needs;
- the importance of financial planning;
- the need to set career goals; and
- the value of higher education.
Mapping Your Future welcomes the use of this game in the classroom and at home. Users are encouraged to play over and over, as they will have different identities each time, helping them base their choices on those varying circumstances.
The dollar amounts in this game are based on the cost of living in Greeley, CO. The cost of living in Greeley is fairly representative of the average cost of living in the United States. |
