The Money Mind Game

The game comes in the form of an e-book which outlines the rules of the game. Basically, its a mind game, hence the name of the book, The Money Mind Game. It teaches us how to master our own financial lives by applying the money mind.

He states in the book that "People who have money think differently to people who don't." This is what the book is all about - how to think like a millionaire and create wealth our own way. "The only difference between a wealthy person and a poor person is what they believe about money; in essence their thinking."

The first rule of the game is to start with the lowest denomination coin in your country. Here in Australia, our smallest coin is 5 cents. However, you must acquire the 5 cents either by finding it, or by someone giving it to you. You can't use any of your own money.

The object of the game is to double your way to one million dollars. So, 5 cents to 10 cents. 10 to 20, and so on, all the way to a million. It might surprise you that this only takes 26 steps, or doubling your money 26 times to get to a million. That's not too hard is it? Making 10 cents from 5 cents might seem easy, but imagine trying to turn $200,000 into $400,000. It will obviously take different strategies as you get to the higher numbers, but thats the game as its played in real life isn't it. You'll need to find people and resources to help you along the way.

You are also required to keep a diary of each stage of the game, so as to track your progress, and the evolution of your money mind.

Personally, I haven't yet completed the game, but I have begun my own game a few weeks ago and have progressed through the early stages quite fast. I wonder how you would fare. Of course, if you lose money at any time, you have to go back to the stage that represents how much you have left. Remember, you can never add any of your own money into the game. It must start and end from your own efforts using the money in the game only.

If you've ever wondered how you could ever make a million dollars, this game is a great place to start. I believe just by concentrating on this game and playing it seriously, the Universe will respond in ways you couldn't possibly imagine by providing opportunities and lessons personal to your own money game, in order for your to complete the game. And of course, once you've reached the objective and won the game, you will have the skills and knowledge that will allow you to do it again and again and again.

How will your game unfold?

A great little book and an fantastically rewarding game. Best of luck.
