MR. BIGSHOT'S MASSIVE MARKET MADNESS (MMM)

Mr. Bigshot has launched an ambitious project to create a Multi-Player Online version in order to conduct a "Massive Market Madness Tournament" with thousands of High Schools across the country.

Why Massive Market Madness? Because the authority on Financial Literacy, the Jumpstart Coalition, has determined that participating in a stock market competition does more to improve financial literacy than an entire course on money management. That's the good news. The bad news is less than 25% of students have participated in a stock market competition. Mr. Bigshot's goal is to boost & energize interest in Financial Literacy by conducting an exciting tournament similar to the NCAA's March Madness.

Mr. Bigshot is currently seeking funds in order to create the online version. For Organizations interested in becoming sponsors or partners, please contact Mr. Bigshot  

RECENT HONORS

The Wall Street Journal recently honored Mr. Bigshot with its Top Innovation Award for the plan to conduct the MMM.

Mr. Bigshot was also honored by Xavier University's Entreprenuer competition X-LAB,

MORE COWBELL

Mr. Bigshot sponsored the entire town of Madeira, Ohio in breaking the Guiness World Record for the Largest Cowbell Band. See www.cowbellfever.com for details. Even though we had over 1,000 people participate, we still could have used a little MORE COWBELL!

Five-Time Best Selling author Eric Tyson stated in his latest book entitled "Let’s Get Real About Money":  "This is one investing game which I have reviewed and tested with kids. Its' educational and entertaining. Kids can learn more about how financial markets work and begin to understand stocks better."

A Stock Market game classified as a "Party Game"? Hey, that's what renowned Game Aficionados and self proclaimed boardgame geeks Tom Vasel and Danny Webb are saying.

Check out the "Big Hairy Audacious Deal" ... both the Board Game and Award winning CD-ROM for 30 bucks. The combined package would typically retail for $45 in stores.

Did you know that Mr. Bigshot was 2003 Top 10 Game of the Year? (igf.com). Pretty Cool!

Businessweek.: “You can't turn back the clock, but you can play Mr. Bigshot, a game that lets you act out some of those investment fantasies while learning about trading stocks. On Wall Street, the odds of beating a Buff or Pinch would be slim, but here you can trade like a pro.”
