Most, if not all of us, have financial goals. We study, work, and earn in order to reach our dreams. While my goals may not be the same as with the next person, these are valid goals, nonetheless. Aside from working to earn and save and even investing money, do you know that you can still think about money during your downtime? You can do that by indulging in some money-related games that you can play online for free. Read more about them.

Thinking About Money

Growing up, I was led to believe that thinking about money in more ways than one makes you “mukhang pera” in Filipino. This has a derogatory connotation, as it connotes that a person is greedy about money and is not conscientious about others. It seems that if you think about money or making more money, you are no longer kind or generous, which probably makes some people feel that it is wrong to want to earn or save more.

But that shouldn’t be the case. You can earn more and still be kind and generous, right? It all depends on how you view money, people, and life, in general.

In this line of thought, if we have financial goals, it is best that we arm ourselves with knowledge on how to make more money after our jobs. A side hustle, like a part-time online job, or maybe some sideling selling, means another source of income. You can also learn more about savings, investment, and other money management ideas.

Playing Money Games

Of course, you cannot be seriously studying all the time. All work and no play will also make us dull and lifeless. Are you into computer games?

Just to let you know, there are computer games that you can play online for free. And do you know that playing money games online is also available and more importantly, free?

For example, Mortgage Calculator has a gaming section particularly designed for people who just like to enjoy some free time but with the central theme of making money, saving, and investing.

There are also office simulation games. It is fun to imagine how fast you can make money and imagine if that is possible in real life. Or you can be encouraged or inspired to do something and keep going. Sometimes, new ideas come up when the mind is relaxed.

There are dozens of games under different categories that you can choose from. Some are designed for kids, just so they could learn how to count money and even give change. There are also real estate games.

What I Like

I particularly enjoyed the Office Fight, where the player gets to throw paper balls to the officemates and the boss. There is also an annoying mouse to target.  At least in the game, I get to kill it, unlike here in the house where it’s so hard to catch a mouse. Haha

You can also get to feel how it is to mine bitcoin and interact with other miners.

There are still so many things to discover. You can spend some free time here and play some games like the Idle Money Tree. Wouldn’t it be nice to make money that quickly, right??

So don’t think that thinking about money means that we are greedy. We just have financial goals and we want to achieve them.

Let’s all work together while thinking about money topics in order to meet our financial goals in 2023. God bless us all!
