Graduate Attributes
Communication Skills:
At the beginning of the event, I communicated with some of the event participants and organisers to help them understand the main game and how to win it. I managed to make some connections at the event through groups and games.
Thinking Skills:
The game requires a good understanding of money, so I tried to think like an investor and how I make my money work for me. I also tried to capture the right opportunity to invest my money as an investor.
Scholarship:
The event was amazingly related to a real-world use case. like what most real state investors doing.
Leadership and Teamworking Skills:
There is no implementation of leadership skills during the game because it's a single-player game.
Enterprising Skills:
I love adventure, and I also love to break the ice on a lot of occasions. the event was perfectly good for me because it demanded that I participate a lot in competitions and games
Position / Role in the Activities
In this event, my role was as a participant only.
Mini Report
The event was based on the Rich Dad Poor Dad book. the book has a lot of amazing investment theories that the writer applied in his investment journey, so the game was the application of the book theories. in the beginning of the event, the speakers talked about cash flow and the theory of assets and liabilities They mentioned the importance of asset management and how to invest your money to add more asset to your investments. as a player in the game, i managed to win second place in the competition
Reflection
It was an eye-opening experience to attend the event based on the ideas of the "Rich Dad Poor Dad" book. It not only supported the ideas I had previously reported on, but it also gave the theories a more real-world and interactive aspect. The presenters discussed the essential components of cash flow and emphasised the need of differentiating between assets and liabilities. This talk provided a strong basis for the use of investing methods in the game environment later on. By taking part in the competition, I was able to put the theories from the book into practice and evaluate my understanding. Not only was placing second in the competition a personal victory, but it also confirmed the usefulness of the investing ideas discussed in the book.
