In his post, he shows his niece having fun playing a game of Monopoly.
It reminded me of my youth and prompted me to submit this comment:

RE: Playing Board Games
It's never too early or too late to play the monopoly-style game called "CASHFLOW".
Believe me, whether you are young or old, it teaches you how to get out of the debt slave treadmill of life and move towards financial independence.
I and my friends (Tom, Joel, and a couple of their preteen children) played the CASHFLOW game.
Joel and his daughter got the hang of it in record time, while Tom and his son quickly went bankrupt. I won the game; mainly because I've been playing it for years.
Joel and I retired early (Joel at 47, me at 40).
Our pensions, investments and other passive income streams provide enough to live a nice life.
Tom is close to my age (56+), still working and admits that it's a constant struggle to make ends meet. He keeps searching for that "Dream Job".
Imagine that?
After the game, Joel reminded Tom that JOB really means:
Anyway, 'nuff rambling for now. The old tongue loves to wag, no?
Enjoyed your post.
Oh yeah, keep up that daily physical activity!
It's beneficial on sooooo many levels!
May you and yours be well and love life today.
Namaste, JaiChai

Believing that school was too boring, he dropped out of High School early; only to earn an AA, BS and MBA in less than 4 years much later in life – while working full-time as a Navy/Marine Corps Medic.
In spite of a fear of heights and deep water, he performed high altitude, free-fall parachute jumps and hazardous diving ops in deep, open ocean water.
After 24 years of active duty, he retired in Asia.
Since then, he's been a full-time, single papa and actively pursuing his varied passions (Writing, Disruptive Technology, Computer Science and Cryptocurrency - plus more hobbies too boring or bizarre for most folk).
He lives on an island paradise with his teenage daughter, longtime girlfriend and three dogs.

I am going to see if I can get a hold of think I would enjoy the game
This sounds like a great alternative to Monopoly! We were just collecting board game ideas for our oldest, this is going on the list!
I think I might need to check out that game, haha! Sounds like a good mix of fun and educational. Of course as a fellow fitness lover I enjoy the graphic about the benefits of regular exercise, as well. :)
I gave up games a long long time ago; now I live in my head with an old man who moans all the time
That's too bad. I would've preferred hearing a young woman moaning instead!
