Being poor is a choice, you are just too stupid to not pick it
As everyone knows the simplest way to make money is to trade stocks. If you don't know how, try asking your Fathers assistant or the guys at the racket ball club.
A failure to make enough to live lavishly is a fundamental personal failure on the part of the person.
Just stop working at McBurger-fil-a and get a better job.
In this life simulator you can -
- Trade stocks like a pro!
- Place Market orders after-hours during a downturn!
- Operate on Margin!
- Purchase ETFs!
- Take advantage of the working class*!
- Get hooked to coke as your reach exceeds your grasp!
- Uncover the cabal of lizard people manipulating the world**!!!
*Don't worry, they are probably black, foreign, or women
** JK its just old white guys

10/10 for a 1 dollar game. Its not perfect but it has more features than a lot of 10 to 20 dollar games in the same category.
Normally I go into detail on my reviews to try and be as helpful as possible to those that may plan on getting the game. But in this case it's not even worth that kind of time. BORING is the best description here.
2/10
In general the game is ok, but for some reason the in game stock market stops working after 2-3 days and the trends of stock prices don't change.
I would feel bad writing a bad review, since he/she's an indie developer, but I've not enjoyed the game.
Basically, you're paying someone to offend you.
The offenses and curses remain in part even if you specify in the settings that you don't want that.
The game simulates some complex mechanics, but the pixalate interface doesn't make playing very comfortable.
Just to unlock basic functions you have to play for days, or take loans with absurd rates.
I feel like 10€ is too much, but for 2€ it would be a cool game.
"Describe what you disliked about the game."
NO
Has more stock options than most other serious trading simulators!! WHAAAAT?!
Now I went into Poverty is a Choice blind, and what I found was a hardcore stock trading sim covered in edgy wrapping. Oh yeah, I like it. Y'all know I've been on a crusade to find a modern Drug Wars here on Steam, and while this isn't exactly that, it's both close yet different enough to totally be it's own thing. Yes, you buy-low-sell-high, but things take a more orthodox direction here with traditional stock trading.
Again, there is a lot of dark humor thrown in to lighten things up, but at the end of the day you will be gathering all the information you can to make sure you earn money each day to support your lifestyle, and even hopefully make it better. There are a great number of various upgrades you can get to help you out. Too many to go into here, but they almost all seem functional (I've tried a good number of them). I even had a pen and paper handy to take notes. Yeah, it gets pretty serious.
Who would I recommend this game to? Well, if you like buy-low-sell-high 'spreadsheet simulators' that have a daily routine akin to Papers, Please, then by all means pick this up. In other words if the store page interests you, you are probably going to appreciate it.
Pros:
+Super fresh
+While it may not look like it at first - there is a good bit of depth here
+The music is so awesome
+I love organizing all my windows on the desktop; reminds me of Banished in that sense
Meh:
=While I am grateful that there is a potent dark humor dialogue, I think it's misleading some people that this is a click-bait game or something trying to seek attention unnecessarily (and, hey who knows, maybe it is - all I can say is that there is definitely a strong game here)
Cons:
-There is definitely a learning curve that could take some time if you are not familiar with trading stocks
A super indie title that I'm glad to own. While the price is probably a bit high for such a niche audience, it makes up for it in freshness.
If you're looking for a relaxing game with good humour and great music I'd highly reccomend this game.
For anyone who has not traded stocks before it may seem daunting but before you know it you'll be trading stocks like a pro.
Despite some curse words, the game (at least what I played) is not overly offensive.
It is a stock trading sim that frequently insults you.
The gameplay is not really interesting enough to keep me looking for jokes, and the jokes are not funny or frequent enough to make me want to suffer through the gameplay.
Is probably 3X too expensive.
Can't recommend at this price.
