Monopoly of Debt

Describe your idea and concept of your work in relation to the festival outlines:

I used the layout of the board game: Monopoly to show the concept of Debt. I used a Monopoly because it shows a cycle of repetition which also applies to debt. In the blocks I mentioned the reasons of why people fall in debt and the result of such occurrence, which is jail. The diagram jail is showed twice to emphasize the cycle.

For the “Chance” I wrote “How to Pay Your Debt” so that the user of such a Monopoly would be able to sort of solve the game in a way and be out of debt.

Finally, I also wanted to show that life is not a Monopoly game, financial issues such as debt are important factors to consider.
