Interesting little simulation intended to teach the basics of budgeting. I'm not so thrilled about the assumptions built in though, especially with regard to transportation (part way through it forces you to buy a car). The odds (I played it several times) of something happening to your home or car are improbably high, so insurance is essential. And taxes - in addition to being the major cause of financial problems - are represented as a financial drain. You get nothing of value from the government, not even a ticket home.
