I've always enjoyed the game LIFE. Its one of those fun fast paced games that are both entertaining as well as mildly educational with choices, careers, life events, etc. and teaches the concept of money.

A new version of the game LIFE also came out, where instead of using paper money you use a debit card. I'm sure other games have this, too. But I enjoy seeing classic games keep up with the times, both in play as well as in topics and content.

I like monopoly too, but think it takes too long for it to be a "practical" lets sit down and play a game option, unless you have 5 hours to dedicate to it!
