Pennies

In class we played a game with pennies where you start with 3 pennies and you bet how many pennies you want out of the 3. Whoever won goes to the next person who also won. Whoever lost, lost their pennies. The more successful people were the ones who had more pennies. The game was easier for the people who had more pennies. In real life people who have more money have more stuff and more opportunities, than people with less money. People with more money have options for college which leads to better jobs. Not everyone in our society has equal opportunities.
