Cashflow is a financial advisory game, much like monopoly, but far more specific and specialized to teach the player how to win at life. The game was created by Robert Kiyoski author of the best selling book "Rich Dad, Poor Dad."It was Kiyoski's goal to create a system that combined his 30 years of "Rich Dad education" into an easy to use and fun system. And that he did. He called the game Cash flow. There is 3 levels to the game:first there is cash flow for kids, which I think is really impressive because the game is introducing the same fundamentals of the original cash flow game, but in a simpler version for parents to expose the idea of learning how to invest and the power of money, and with Robert having been groomed to "be rich" I think he did an exceptional job relating this game to children. Another bonus of the game is it not only exposes these strategies to kids, but also to expose to their parents. The Cash flow for kids game board only includes the rat race. For the "Fast Track, you must upgrade to Cash flow 101. I took an interest in how many people would actually like to "Learn" about Financial Literacy, and the results utterly surprised me.

Firstly – where do I go and how do I get there?By far the best place to start is with the Canton Fair in Guangzhou - www.cantonfair.org.cn which runs in April and October. The best way to get there is by flying into Hong Kong either direct or indirect (a short stop over in Dubai is usually cheapest) an economy ticket should set you back around £395. Once in Hong Kong there are a variety of ways of making it up to Guangzhou but I find that the easiest and cheapest way is by train, all trains run from Hung Hom station in Kowloon and arrive at Guangzhou East station in Guangzhou, tickets are around $190HK one way.What paper work do I need?You will first and foremost need a Chinese Visa which you obtain through a Chinese embassy here in the UK -http://www.chinese-embassy.org.uk/eng/lsyw/chivisa/. You will need a Letter of invitation from a company or institution in China or Visa Notification Form issued by an authorized unit in China (Visa notification refers to the form of visa notification issued by the Chinese government departments, companies and social organizations authorized by the Chinese Foreign Ministry.
