The stock market. We'd all love to be millionaires from it right? Anyway found some FREE games which are based on real life facts. Your given virtual cash and can invest it how you like. There are monthly prizes if you do well, and you can use it to learn about the stock exchange!!
Anyway just sharing with you. Me and the girly are competing heavily and if requested I can create MoneySavingExpert private leagues in each one. (They're all completely free don't forget!) If you want to be a member of the mini league I'd need you to pm me your username and user ID (on bbc ones the user id is in brackets after your name under my portfolio)
The games:
BBC Celebdaq - Buy shares in celebrities. share prices are worked out on the amount of press coverage and images in broadsheets and tabloids.
https://www.bbc.co.uk/celebdaq
BBC Sportsdaq - Similar to celebdaq but for ALL types of sports stars. (Celebdaq includes the top ones...)
https://www.bbc.co.uk/sportdaq
(ONLY ONE ACCOUNT IS NEEDED FOR BOTH CELEBDAQ AND SPORTDAQ BUT USER ID NUMBER IS DIFFERENT)
Virtual Trader - USES THE REAL UK Stock Exchange and gives you £100,000 to invest however you want!
https://www.virtualtrader.co.uk
^^ That ones more advanced but dont forget, its free and based on real life. even if your sh*t your not losing anything and its great fun
:A
ENJOY
EDIT:
Virutal Trader is FTSE 100 only.. If you played in the moneysaverleague then you would need a new portfolio so dont create a portfolio before you join it... to join it you need to get the password off me so pm me. For bbc ones you need to send me your id but your portfolio is the same. Ta
