Quotes About Wi$eMoney®, The Town of Financial Literacy.
From Albuquerque, The Magazine, May 2013 Roll the dice and go back to start with Board Game Artist Elizabeth Treher
"The board for WiseMoney is a fictitious city, which is a town of financial literacy. Players advance through town by answering questions correctly. Question categories include banking and investing, budgeting and payday, financing and credit, and identity protection. Their goal is to prove they're wise about money."
Organizations
“Working at a microfinance organization, my team and I had been eager to play WiseMoney for quite a while. Unfortunately, we were always so busy that we could never find the time so sit down together. However, always being at our computers, we decided to make a daily trivia game out of it, send out questions every morning for several weeks and seeing who could be the first person to e-mail back the correct answer. It turned into a great way for people to both have fun and learn, and ended in a lighting-round, cage-match between the top two finalists vying for the top prize; a $25 Starbucks gift certificate.” Employee at a Microfinance Organization
"Wi$eMoney®… was an added dimension to our employment and training program and gave the Veterans who were in attendance important life skills.” L. S. The Philadelphia Veterans
