A few weeks ago we noted that we had just received a big delivery of an item we had made. Without further ado, behold Collapse! -- The Commemorative Game of the Financial Crisis.
Collapse! is a commemorative game that takes a light hearted approach to the very serious events of the financial crisis. The game allows players to relive the tension, anxiety, and second guessing characterized by this crazy period in history. As the global financial system began to crumble in 2007, it became frighteningly apparent just how precarious its foundation had been all along. While the bankruptcy of Lehman is often cited as the cause of the collapse, the reality is that under a different sequence of events, the pressures would have built up differently, causing something or someone else to bear the blame. There was no one cause. Instead, a thick web of diverse but interconnected culprits was revealed, with each playing their own important role.
In the game of Collapse!, each of the 54 blocks represents one of the factors or events that helped create the crisis or hasten its escalation. What better way to relive the financial turmoil than to grab some family or friends and try to build your own financial fortress that's too big to fail! After stacking the blocks (the included instructions provide a useful frame), players take turns pulling them out one by one until the entire structure collapses! Read the phrase on the block that caused the Collapse! and reminisce about the "bad old days."
The 54 blocks in each commemorative game fit nicely into a sleek wooden box that makes an excellent display at your office, your home study, or even your child's toy room. Collapse! makes for a great gift, collector's item, or history lesson, so order yours today!
You guys have too much free time...

Haha. The Cold War generation gets Dr. Strangelove, and we get Collapse for family game night. Its important to be able to laugh and not take things so seriously.

The ESRB provides ratings of game content so that you can determine if
these indeed are appropriate for your kids. Here are the ratings for
the games you mentioned and the themes found in the material that
maybe of concern to parents.

Trying to decide which major I want, I think I want to go into finance, but I am not sure. I know I am going into business- at a business school.
Also, if there are any people who have careers in finance, what do you specifically and do you like your jobs? Because I have an internship in finance and accounting and it is pretty boring...but it is just because they don't give me enough work to do so I don't feel like I have had the true experience.

Life is not fair, get used to it.Flipping burgers is not beneath your dignity. Your grandparents had a different word for burger flipping; they called it opportunity.

Do not blame the religion, blame the misguided ones who practice it not according to God's will. When you people with rags over their faces, you should know they are not true muslims. Anyone serving God proudly would not cover their face.

Investment comes with the risk of the loss of the principal sum. The investment that has not been thoroughly analyzed can be highly risky with respect to the investment owner because the possibility of losing money is not within the owner's control. The difference between speculation and investment can be subtle. It depends on the investment owner's mind whether the purpose is for lending the resource to someone else for economic purpose or not
