Testimonials from Students

"The most important thing I learned from this game was that it makes you think about how you want to spend your money and at the same time its helping you make good decisions."

Grade 10 Student, Harlem, NY

"The most challenging part was when I had to make decisions to invest in stock because the market just might drop. The most important thing I learned in playing Nest Egg is always to buy insurance! Overall I would highly recommend that this game be played in schools because it prepares you for the future you."

Grade 10 Student, Harlem, NY

"My fellow classmates and I were really engaged in the game. Everyone was determined to reach their goal which was having $400,000 by the age of 60. Nest Egg is a game that can be applied to the real world. This game should be played in other schools because it shows how to save money and be financially independent."

"I learned I don’t know much about money, and life doesn’t get easier after high school. But, I also learned what to do better next time."

King High School Senior, Corpus Christi, TX

"I learned that you need to payoff your credit and mortgage and have insurances cause that can affect your cash flow. I recommend this game to other schools because it’s a great and fun way of learning financial stability."

Grade 11 Student, Harlem, NY

"I enjoyed playing this game and also took in a lot of information that I didn’t know about like equities, bonds, mutual funds, debts, mortgages and insurance. Usually students would learn about these things in a classroom with a teacher and taking notes, and sometimes it can be a lot of information to obtain from one person. But playing this game makes it a lot easier to learn this information and it’s fun."
