Monopoly: Cash Flow, Risk & Negotiation Skills

The kids were given an Adventure Time Monopoly game for Christmas.  Monopoly is such a great game for learning many Maths and Business skills.  When the kids were younger the game helped them with basic counting skills.  As they have grow older they have learnt  that cash flow is crucial to be successful in monopoly and if they spent too much money on property they are unable to pay rents.   The game is all about negotiating and making deals.  Using proper negotiation skills are vital in the game.  In the game you must take risks, if you don’t take risks you will not win. But some risks result in losing the game too.
