Googol----Macro Economic Simulation Game

Googol : Google was derived from the name “GOOGOL” which implies a very large number [10 power 100] . Here we want to see if you have the ability of impacting billion lives by acting the finance minister of India.

Every time the monetary Budget is announced a few people start criticizing the Finance Minister.

Finance Minister has got a tough role and has to go with many factors while deciding the Policies of the Country: - GDP; Inflation and Unemployment rate are the main factors which should be taken in to account for every nation. Moreover a very high value of one factor would decrease the value of the other factors. So he/she has to adjust all the three factors in such a way that the country becomes powerful.

You are considered more powerful if you are able to bring out a change in the whole industry; whole

economy. Managing a country is supposed to be a true test of leadership; on one hand you have to manage

the Country’s Deficit and on the other hand take care of your rating among the people. Some time people

might not understand your idea or motive behind your strategies...One section of the society might be happy

with your plans and the other section of the society might be annoyed as the policies applied are against

them.

As said by Sanjot Mahlia( The Yale Sponsored Guy): The ‘educated’ Indian is well aware of the

condition of the poor, the apathy of the corrupt politician and the flawed system, but is too self centred, busy in making the most of the ever ballooning stock market to be bothered about changing the system or making an effort to be part of the ‘dirty game’ that is politics. He will go to any extent to criticize the government, its policies, policy makers and the fact that elections are fought on the wrong criteria of caste and creed and that people vote for the same wrong reasons, but will do nothing more. It is perhaps talk and actions (or the lack thereof) of this sort that renders their education futile and perhaps advocates their labelling as mere literates and not educated. Needless to say these are the very same people who are presently reaping the benefits of the growth of the Indian economy. It is perhaps for the very same reason they bear an apathetical outlook towards the system and its flaws.

Managing India might bring out your true leadership skill forward. Welcome to Googol. Manage India in your 5 year terms and make it happy and prosperous in terms of Lower Unemployment rate; Lower Inflation and High GDP. [Simultaneously take care of your approval ratings]
