I have just registered for the game, but cannot access it from the Login page.

Make sure you're using the email address and password you used to sign up for the game. You should have received an email message containing this information. If you can't find this email message and can't remember your password, go to the Login page and click on Lost Password and it will be emailed to you.

If you cannot get the login to work, check whether a firewall (at home or work) may be blocking your connection to the game server. Turn your firewall off and try to login. If it still does not work, you may prefer paying the Prosperity Game via email.

Be sure to bookmark the Login page - or make it your home page - since playing the game is the ideal way to amp up your energy first thing each day.

I signed in for the second day and it seems that my information is gone. I have a $100 check just as though I had never played yesterday.

At each step of the game, make sure you click the button under your entry. That's how your information gets saved.

I entered items into my list of "100 things" but I don't see them anywhere.

You must click on the Update Your List of Things button at the bottom of the page in order to save your changes. Also, special characters (such as * / " ) can not be used in your list.

I'm concerned about spamming and having my email address sold. I also feel a bit uncomfortable entering my deepest thoughts and desires into the game system. Does anyone read what we've written? Do you do anything with our information?

We've created this game so that you could have a very positive, highly satisfying experience. Your sense of safety and comfort is a major element of this. Our system is built so that players have complete privacy. The information is stored in a database that is not accessible by anyone -- not even the system administrators. Your lists and your desires are your personal property and we are simply creating a space for you to get in touch with them and then we are holding them for safekeeping. As for your email address, we give you our word of honor that our email list is not shared with anyone. Read our privacy pledge.

The game speaks of "visits", is this the same as "days"?

We've designed the game to be played at your convenience. While we recommend that you get in the habit of aligning your prosperity energy by playing early in the day on consecutive days, if you can't be by a computer on the weekend or if your schedule gets tight, the game patiently waits for you to decide to get back on track. Even if you skip a week, the game will not ask you where you've been (grin) but will be eager to support you in moving ahead.

How much do we get each day?

Here is the schedule of checks: $100, $250, $500, $750, $1000, $1250, $1500, $2500, $4000, $5000, $5500, $7500, $10000, $12500, $15000. You can continue playing the game each and every day for years and years, receiving checks that increase by $1000 each day.

I was in a rush today and wanted to skip some of the questions but the program wouldn't allow it. Why is that?

We've designed to game to help you become attuned to the experience of becoming energetically aligned with prosperity. Therefore, we feel that it is in your best interest to give yourself the very short time that it takes to move consciously through the steps of the process each day.

After you've played the game for a while you'll be surprised at how much you'll learn about yourself and your shifting energy by reviewing the comments that you've made and by seeing how the "desire" and "resistance" graphs have changed over time.

When I played the game today, it didn't start with the check page, but another later page. Why is that?

The last time you played, you only partially completed the day. The system is taking you back to where you left off last time to complete the day. You'll see a message to this effect on the Welcome page.

When I logged in today, I had partially completed a day and was at the Track Your Resistance step, but I don't remember what I spent my check on! How can I find out what I've already done for this day that so I can complete it?

Click on Your Previous Visits in the left menu. After first heading, it will say "This is the day you are presently working with." Click on that day number heading and you'll see the information you've previously entered for that day. Then, just click on Play the Prosperity Game in the menu to complete the day.

This is so much fun! Can I play more than once a day?

Although the game logic will not prevent players from playing the game more often, we do not recommend spending more than one check per day. You may choose to login additional times in a single day to add to your list of "100 things", to review your graphs, or to read hints and spending suggestions - but you'll dissipate your own energy expansion if you rush to spend more than one check each day.

I was wondering if you have to spend the money each day in its entirety, or if you can save it towards a bigger purchase. Also, are we supposed to be specific about the cost, including taxes, etc., or can we approximate?

As far as spending all of the money each day, the goal is to spend with the clear positive expectation that there will always be more on the way. Internalizing this sense - that we will always be provided for - is one of the main objectives of the game.

As far as exact amounts, do your best to "guesstimate" and use "ballpark numbers". Don't worry about tax or delivery costs. This should be light and fun. If it becomes work or pressure, we have complicated it too much.

Can I use the money to: pay off credit card debt? make investments? open college funds for my kids? tithe 10%...?

Great questions! Here is the most important distinction related to this game: 'What' you choose to spend your money on is not as important as how this choice makes you feel. The goal is to use the money to feel positive and expanded by it.

As I've written in response to people who ask about using the money to pay bills (although the same applies to all other related situations), the question is, "Will paying off your bills help you to feel more light and expanded?" If so, go for it. If, on the other hand, diverting the money to pay off bills ends up making you feel frustrated and down (because either you resent having to spend towards the bills or because choosing to pay off your 'real world' bills plunges you into a negative focus on your current financial situation), then I would suggest not doing so.

If thinking about a purchase helps you to feel good, then you are on the right track. If thinking about a purchase leaves you feeling constricted and dissatisfied, try another choice.

You've written that we should not spend our money on other people. Do I only buy for myself? Can I take my partner on a cruise and out to meals and hotel stays, etc.? I would be lonely without company and I would not chose these things if I were to do them alone.

As stated in the response above, your goal is to spend this money in a way that gives you the most joy and creating memorable experiences for those you love fulfills that criteria.

Please note that although I did advise against lending or giving money away, I never said that you needed to shy away from sharing your good fortune with others. There is a vast difference between creating experiences for your family and friends to enjoy with you and giving your money away to other people so that they benefit while you, because you now gave away what you had, do without.

Once again, too many of us on the spiritual path find giving easier than receiving. The goal of this game is to help you become aligned with a greater level of receiving. Once we take good care of ourselves (focusing on Self-first), we will find that we have so much more to give.

Today I hit overwhelm. Spending yesterday's money was tough and today I panicked. What does that mean?

It means that the game is working!!!!!!

If you sense that your "financial set point" has been thrown off balance by the influx of positive new messages about abundance and the benefits of circulating your money...

If you feel your energy shifting and changing - with new thoughts, emotions and/or body sensations arising in response to playing the game...

Keep at it! The game is "stirring things up" just as it should. ;-)

STICK WITH IT!

Commit to playing the game daily until the 15 days is complete (and then consider continuing if you feel good about the shifts).

Don't be surprised if you find keeping up with the game more difficult that you first imagined.

You might yourself putting off a day and promising yourself that you'll double up your spending the next day to catch up. You might find the little voice in your head telling you that this is just a silly game. You might find it challenging to decide what to spend when we reach higher values. You might actually find it intellectually or emotionally disconcerting to pretend to have money that you do not have.

All of this resistance is NORMAL. Remember, your aim here is to shift your energy so that you become aligned with a higher vibration. In order to do this, you will be inviting "transformation." Transformation is a wonderful process but it is rarely achieved without any discomfort. Think of it as stretching beyond where you've been before or strengthening your muscles. If you were working out in a gym you would not be surprised to experience a bit discomfort before you reached a new level of physical fitness. The same is true here.

So, just as in the gym analogy, you wouldn't want to give up your workouts even if you experienced resistance during the first few weeks. You know that, if you keep on going, you'll move right past the resistance and be on your way towards the fabulous physical body that you've always wanted.

In short - keep your commitment to yourself and follow through daily for the next three weeks. The benefits will last far beyond the 15 visits...
