GO FOR BROKE
NATIONAL GO FOR BROKE DAY – NATIONALDAYS CHALLENGE - ORIGINAL PHOTOGRAPHY
Today, April 5th is National Go For Broke Day! Did you know there was such a day? Did you take heed of it? Did you trade everything on a whim today, or are you a HODLER like I am? I'm a bit of a risk taker, but I have never been willing to risk everything! But a day to celebrate Going For Broke?
Or does National Go For Broke Day refer to the board game Go For Broke? Do you know the game? Do you play it? Is it fun to play? Which board games do you play? I have to admit that it has been ages since I have played a board game. I think tonight I'll pull out the cribbage board for a game of cards! Does anyone play cribbage?

I didn't know of such a game, but then again maybe the last board game I played was Monopoly or chess.
I had no idea that there is such day.
Too late in life for me to “go for broke.” I do enjoy games. We play Ticket to Ride. We have recently had a lot of fun playing What Do You Meme, a card game like Cards Against Humanity. Very funny...naughty but funny.
Sounds like fun! We used to play games all the time. It's time to change our routine again, methinks! Games are fun! I haven't heard of those games, but will look out for them! I use to love Trivial Pursuit, but my husband got tired of not winning. LOL! I used to be so good at trivia, but not sure how I would do nowadays!
Not sure if you've heard of Bob Ross, the painter with the "happy little trees," but there is a new board game based on him and his paintings that I plan on getting soon.
No, I haven’t. I’ll Google it!😊
Monopoly was the best board game created.
My kids used to ove playing it. I didnt like it much because the games lasted too long!
It is funny that each day is National something day. I find this challenge quite interesting.
As for the board games we love to play Scrabble and Monopoly at home. And as we are fans of Doctor Who, so is the edition of our Monopoly game.
We used to play Scrabble a lot. I still have the game from 50 years ago!
