The aim of the organizers of the tournament was to attract pupils’ interest to matters of personal financial planning, to allow them to influence the course of events and manage the financial decisions of the characters: choose a job, change it, get additional education, to travel, to buy things, do pension funds.

In total, the event was attended by 72 players. Hard and too adult, at first glance, the theme turned out to be so interesting to children, even after the completion of the tournament, they continued to discuss the possible course of events. According to the opinion of the children, the tournament has become not only fun for them, but also training how to become a financially independent and successful man.
