The scoring: The Real Price
Hunt the gap between the advertised number and what actually leaves your hand. Proof on paper — feelings score zero.
| Catch | Points |
|---|---|
| A fee or extra nobody mentioned, worked | 1 |
| The year behind a monthly price — Twelve Move | 1 |
| A total that exists but is never printed | 3 |
| True cost more than double the headline | 5 |
| Catching yourself before a money decision and naming the real reason | 10 |
The 9 weeks
One module per week. Each runs the same four parts: a short video, a task with a checkable answer, the scored round, and one slice of the thing they are building.
- 0 Setup and rules Money is decisions, not weather. The ledger starts here.
- 1 Where money comes from Three doors — time, something you made, something you own.
- 2 Every rand has a job A rand with no job already has one, and it is spend.
- 3 The real price The big number on the poster is rarely the whole price.
- 4 Pricing what you make A price has a floor. Beginners stand on the floor.
- 5 Where money sleeps Every place money sits takes something.
- 6 Debt, tax, and grown-up bills Compounding and bills adults pay — seen safely on paper.
- 7 Tax and being legit You have been paying tax since you were small. Being legit is a door.
- 8 Making it real A traced number is the difference between a plan and a wish.
What they hand in
