Based on the box that's about $200/sq ft, or roughly the price of prime NYC land these days.

I've played the game, I can tell you it blows Monopoly away. It's a great Christmas gift idea

The game is expensive, but when you open it you can see why. It has so many cards and pieces. It's the most comprehensive real estate game I have ever seen. My family has become hooked, we play all day on the weekends.

I have appraised half a dozen of Harden's properties and spent a significan amount of timw in his office with him. He is not a developer, or a mogul.

Sounds exactly like Cashflow Game, which came out years ago. I bet Robert Kiyosaki could make a killing suing for copyright infringement-- I mean another killing, since he's already rich.

Could someone explain how may this game differ from Monopoly or Robert Kyosaki's Cash Flow? www.MiamiRealEstateKing.com

I bought the game a couple of weeks ago. It's nothing like Cash Flow or Monopoly and I've played both. Cash Flow is more inspirational than educational, and monopoly doesn't really teach anything. The Mogul game teaches alot of real estate terms and concepts.

Why would an appraiser(Comment #6) say something bad about a customer who has done 6 transactions with him. I think we have someone making things up here. If the guy he's talking about has more than 6 buildings, sounds like he's doing OK.

I know Joel Harden from going to parties on his yacht. From what I hear he does own a ton of real estate in several states. I don't know what the definition of being a Mogul is, but he's certainly done well for himself in real estate.

I represented Mr. Harden in securing patents, tradmarks and copyright protection for Mogul. The game is so drastically more comprehensive and so different from Cash Flow that there wasn't a single concern of infringement when meeting with the examiners. I understand that I may be viewed as biased as I represent the company, but try the game and I think you will be converted.

Mr. E. Roberts

I'm a business professor at Princeton. I think the game has great educational value, I recently purchased the game for use in my undergraduate course on real estate. So far, students have responded well to learning the real estate concepts in a fun & entertaining way. Mr. E. Roberts

I have played Mogul for about a month now and I can describe how the game is different from Cash Flow; Cash Flow teaches you that if you have more coming in than you have going out you're doing good. I just bought my second rental property and I can tell you it's alot more complicated than this. Mogul helped me to understand cap rates and basic operating statements and also to think about the management concerns in an organized way.

I just ordered mogul and I'm excited to receive it in the next few days. I'm a homeowner and since the market is down, I think now is the time to purchase my first investment property. I read about the game in the Chicago Tribune and the L.A. Times. John Mckey

Ben Bernanke

I'm the head of the Federal Reserve Bank, and we here at the Fed play Mogul all day long. It's the best way to learn about real estate during an financial crisis.

comment #14 - how have you been playing it for a month when the game came out the second week of November? A lot of the positive comments seem to be generated by Harden's staff and public relations team. The truth is that the games are not selling.

You can't patent a board game. If you somehow did, the patent would be so narrow that it would be essentially useless.

I have been looking for a summer villa for almost two years and I had almost given up because the market prices were falling and I was afraid to buy. Having spoken to a lot of people about this (both in the states and in Europe were I travel a lot for work) I found that the Greek islands and in particular the Ionian islands have not had a decrease in prices. And why was this? Because prices were low to begin with and they did not balloon to the rates of other countries such as Spain. In addition, I was thinking about Turkey which is even cheaper but its not as safe as its not in the EU and a muslim country. Looking at the Ionian Islands, Kefalonia and Corfu were already developed and very expensive. However I found that the Islands of Lefkada (Lefkas) was not expensive and it had a number of advantages. Firstly, it is connected to the mainland through a brigde so that there is no need to take a ferry to go anywere on the mainland. Secondly, it has tthe international airport of Aktio 45 minutes away and thirdly and most importantly, there is a very developed market of Villa rentals. This third factor meant that I could purchase a Villa and pay off my mortgage with the revenue from renting. I calculated that in 5 years I could have paid off all my mortgage and start earning money. From research I did, I calculated that the total revenue for a villa with a pool per year would be from 30 to 40 K after tax and expenses. This means that a villa of 100 sq. meters with a pool near the seafront which in general costs 300K will be paid for in 5 years if you put up front 100K. And from there on, you have an income of 40K to 50K a year after tax (since I calculate that these properties will increase in value as there will be less and less as years go by. In addition, you are left with a villa which in 5 years from now will cost 500K. Not bad at all. Having checked out the lefkada market, I found this company, www.cratusestates.com which builds villas with high quality materials (they used to build luxury villas in suburbs of Athens) and they gave me the option to pay less for the villa if I bought before construction. I was skeptical at first since I did not know what they built but the contract was very specific with materials and quality of construction and they gave me an almost 20% discount. I have bought one villa from them and its in the process of being built. If you are interested to have more details about this at nicos77@gmail.com I am very excited about the prospects and you can never go wrong with buying land and summer homes at an underdeveloped area. I predict that Greece will become the Florida of Europe and prices of land and buildings outside Athens will skyrocket as more Europeans discover it.

I was looking to go to Greece for a long time now but never got the chance. Now that the new museum of the Acropolis is open (and I hear that its incredible) I really want to go. But I only have 500 USD to spend and that is only enough for airfare. I had talked to all my friends about this and they told me to go to Florida instead J. But that would also be expensive and I would not get to see all the ancient stuff in Greece. A month ago, a Greek American friend of mine told me of this incredible deal that is being offered where you get to go with one friend for free to Greece as long as you bring 5 other people each. I though this was a scam and did not believe it but sent a mail anyways to this company, www.vacancestravel.com. They seemed very decent and their clients were very impressive (Harvard, national geographic, the Smithsonian). When they answer they mentioned this deal as my friend had told me. They actually provide all expenses to 2 persons (in a double room of course) if they get together 10 people to come with them. This was my chance to go to Greece for free (I had some frequent flyer miles so I spent nothing on the airfare). I got 6 of my friends and my college buddy got 5 more and we all went on the trip like a small reunion. I strongly recommend this trip if its your first time to Greece or if you haven’t seen the sites. Its 7 days and you get to see all the major sites with decent hotels and great food. After this 7 days, we all went to Mykonos for 3 days were I treated my friends to dinners and drinks for their participation. Great party. If you want some tips, send me a mail at npet77@gmail.com

I can't believe this, I used to be a Michael Jacon fan and was shocked to hear of 3 celebrity deaths in such a short amount of time and I just read this article that Jackson did in fact have a pulse at one point. Dr. Conrad Murray's lawyer is now saying that when Murray found Michael Jackson, he had a faint pulse. Murray's lawyer, Edward Chernoff, says Murray went into Jackson's bedroom and saw that he wasn't breathing. Chernoff told the AP, "He just happened to find him in his bed, and he wasn't breathing. Mr. Jackson was still warm and had a pulse." Chernoff says Murray immediately began administering CPR. Chernoff says Murray did not prescribe or give Jackson Demerol or OxyContin. Chernoff says any drugs Murray did prescribe were given in response to a specific complaint from Jackson.
