It teaches the investment techniques of "short-selling stock", "put-options", "call-options", "straddles" and real estate exchanges. By playing the Cashflow board game, we can begin to truly learn how the money game is played and begin to change our thinking about what actions we need to take in order to truly be financially free. If you desire to promote your business, network with like minded individuals and learn the skills for building lifelong passive income streams you desire, this is your group. Who's Leading the Cashflow Games? Douglas Carver, Club Co-organizer Doug leads Cashflow 101.

Learn more about him at *[[www.ProfitsOnWallStreet.com](http://www.profitsonwallstreet.com/)]([www.profitsonwallstreet.com](http://www.profitsonwallstreet.com/))* 95% of achieving & maintaining time freedom is about the "how to think"[...only](http://...only/) about 5% is about the "how to do".
