Them and the Technician skill. You basically already won the game if you can get both.

Yeah the Technician skill. You get $200 every time the spinner goes off the track. The issue is that Life spinners are made terriblely so they always go off the track so if you get that skill you get 600-800 dollars a round, depending on number of players. My sister when we were young always got that skill somehow and won every time because she kept getting money. In the end mom had to throw away the skill card because the game was rigged.

I see you've never played life before or you would know this.

I would think they would have realized it when I talked about the spinner. What part of real life has a spinner in it?

The first post didn't mention a spinner. It was after reading your second post that I realized you were talking about the board game.

Duncan, classic Life doesn't have "skills". It does have Stock though, and it's a must have.

To be fair, his first post literally says "won the game" that and the topic title Life being capitalized are clues.

Or we didn't play the version that you own. My family owns the 1991 version, so that's what I know and no such card existed back then.

Life is sort of like SimCity. The designers have an ideal of what things they want to associate as "good" or "effective".

Like, it's almost always good to get a college degree in Life, much more than just being an HS grad. Invest in stocks, have children, playing the lottery is bad*, blah blah blah.

*over several game sessions.
