Low Income Simulation Game

[quote=jhoijhoi]You're unemployed. You've lost your house. You're a single parent. You're down to your last $1000. Can you make it through the month? http://playspent.org/ I found this an interesting stimulation of what living on a low income is like. Made me really think about my financial situation. On my first run, I made it to day 23 and then my mother needed $100 for medication, which made me run out of money. How many days can you last?[/quote]

[quote=Embracing]Ionno that was pretty easy ;o Got through first month brainless with 400+[/quote]

[quote=Hogopogo]Finished it with 52$ :3 EDIT: Played again and ended with 2$ this time =.=[/quote]

[quote=jhoijhoi]I'm a pretty moral person, so if I "broke something" or had family issues, I paid for them. I did a run where I had no morals and tried to make money and ended with $1400. As the situations are randomed, but the consequences are the same, the simulation is too predictable.[/quote]

[quote=Meiyjhe]Interesting game I reached 29 days :3[/quote]

[quote=jhoijhoi]You need Flash to access it ^^[/quote]

[quote=Viola Orpheus]Dang I lost like 3 times on the 29th day, then I survived on my 4th try with $215 but I had to suffer the dental problem on that run.[/quote]

[quote=Jovy][img=http://puu.sh/4LyvL.jpg] Had to pay bills but I had lot more. edit: $691 on my second try[/quote]

[quote=Searz]Waste of my fucking time. I want my 5minutes back.[/quote]

[quote=Bioalchemist]it is always surprising to hear from people that they really have little to no savings or that they don't have a backup plan. i know of people making 40-60k dollars per year that have little to no savings (insane spending). i know people who play LoL who buy shit tons of skins but when they get laid off they can't afford rent. once you start living as a fully grown adult aka 99% independent of your parents you need to have backup plans...savings...and watch your spending carefully or if you are lucky your parents will be welcoming you back...if you are not lucky toshabi will be grinding you up in a meat grinder to feed to the starving people of the world.[/quote]
