IGU: InvestaGators™ University (Coming Soon)
A next-level learning platform where kids, families, and educators can take financial literacy even further. IGU will feature online courses, challenges, and certifications that make money skills part of everyday life. It’s financial education built for the next generation.
The InvestaGators™ “Chomp or Stomp” board game turns money moves into an adventure. Players race to collect Keys, unlock treasure chests, and build their fortune — but every roll comes with choices: Chomp or Stomp Cards can boost your savings or might send you backward. Watch out for the swamp, where bad decisions can leave you “drowning in debt” and then sliding back to the start! With treasure chest surprises, risk-and-reward twists, and a big dose of InvestaGator™ fun, it’s a game that makes financial literacy unforgettable.
