Please update!

Please update this app to the newer iOS! I use this game in my Financial Algebra class. The students love it, and they learn a lot.
One of a kind

This is the only game I've found in the app store that has a financial education aspect. And I'm actually liking it...
Awesome Fun

This is the only "celebrity financial management game" I'm aware of, and it's pretty darn fun to boot! I really enjoyed working my way up the career ladder, and I like how the game worked in some nice points about budgeting and credit card use during the game -- the learning points didn't seem too heavy handed and meshed really well with the game mechanics.
Love it!!

I did not enjoy playing this game. It kicks me out all the time and it is just unreasonable.
