WADDINGTONS RATRACE VINTAGE BOARD GAME

Product Information

There is a growing mountain of evidence supporting Dale’s claim through the Cone of Learning that we learn best by doing, such as playing games, rather than by listening and reading (lectures and books). In many cases, it’s the marketplace, not school, that is filling the void of this need for humans to learn by doing. The marketplace does it through games—a method that much of the traditional education system ignores. The earliest known occurrence is 1934. In reference to aviation training a rat race was originally a " follow-the-leader" game in which a trainee fighter pilot had to copy all the actions (loops, rolls, spins, Immelmann turns etc.) performed by an experienced pilot. From 1945, the phrase took on the meaning of "competitive struggle. [1]"

In the Rat Race, you rely on other people to mind your business for you. And, as we can see from the example of those play labs in Bangladesh, those people often do not want you to play or have fun. They want you to work, work, work as hard as you can. The word collective most of them can't bring themselves to use—except to describe foreign countries or organizations they don't work for—but they are keenly aware of how much more deeply beholden they are to organization than were their elders. They are wry about it, to be sure; they talk of the "treadmill," the "rat race," of the inability to control one's direction. The power of play is evident in the benefits derived from it. In Bangladesh, where play labs are slowly growing to become a part of the formation of young children, teachers and parents alike are changing their mindset about what it means to educate children. The Rat Race was used as a title for a novel written by Jay Franklin in 1947 for Colliers Magazine and first published in book form in 1950. It is dedicated To those few rats in Washington who do not carry brief-cases.A number of years ago, Arizona State University, another prominent university, also evaluated our CASHFLOW Game. Unlike the university that didn’t have time for games and didn’t want to teach kids about money, ASU found that CASHFLOW was a great tool. In fact, they said that Robert Kiyosaki’s game, CAHSFLOW, was “the closest simulation of the real thing.”

Zichermann talks about how the modern education system is fundamentally opposed to our nature as humans. Asking us to sit down and pay attention does very little for our education, when in reality we learn more by trying, making mistakes, and achieving. Experiencing the chemical benefits of the pleasure we feel when dopamine is released through our achievements helps us remember and learn far more efficiently.

Contained in the simple statement, “I am not a teacher, I am a play lab leader,” is great wisdom. The difference between telling kids what to do versus letting them learn from doing, including making mistakes, is the difference between creating sub-servient employees and innovative entrepreneurial thinkers. I am not a teacher, I am a play lab leader,” said Tania, who works at the Begunbari play lab in the suburbs of Dhaka. “If I am a teacher I am saying ‘do this’ and telling them what to do. I don’t give them exercise books, I just let them play.” Sometimes when his sardonic mood is on him, he wonders whether the synchrotrons, the betatrons, the cosmotrons, and all the other contrivances physicists have lately rigged up to create energy by accelerating particles of matter aren't playing a wry joke on their inventors. "They are accelerating us too," he says, in a voice that still betrays a trace of the accent of his native Holland. In protesting against the speedup, Goudsmit can speak with authority, for in the course of only a few years, he, like many other contemporary physicists, has seen his way of life change from a tranquil one of contemplation to a rat race. Escape (Free Yo Mind From This Rat Race)" was released as the b-side of " Glam Slam", the second single from Prince's album Lovesexy and was later included on The B-Sides compilation.

You can’t escape the rat race if you keep burying yourself in deeper debt. Cut up your credit card. Stop buying things you don’t need. Instead, buy essentials like groceries and medicines. And there may even be some things you could cut from your grocery list too like bottled water when you have tap water at home. Look at reducing your expenses as much as you can. This will help you save more money long-term so you can live within your means. Plus, you can reinvest the money you’ve saved so you can grow it ten-fold long-term. That way, you can attain financial freedom . There’s one other thing you’ll need to buy, and we’ll dive into that in a later section. The term is commonly associated with an exhausting, repetitive lifestyle that leaves no time for relaxation or enjoyment.

The reason for this is because the Rat Race makes you entirely dependent on other people: your parents, your teachers, your boss, etc. And it completely shuts off your mind from other possibilities and ways of living and thriving in the world. This is why ASU saying that CASHFLOW the Board Game is “the closest simulation of the real thing,” is so important.Moving from a job of high strenuosity to one of lesser strenuosity, like the tang ping lifestyle of young Chinese This is the very reason why the CASHFLOW board game was developed. Robert and Kim Kiyosaki believed so much in the power of play to learn, and the demand for that kind of learning, that they decided to make a product that would meet that demand. In fact, they believe so much in the power of play to help people break free from the Rat Race that they’ve made CASHFLOW Classic free to play online.
