Each player assumes the role of the Head of the family and the goal of the game is to obtain insurance coverage in relationship to their income and responsibilities. It all packages up neatly into a small 12" by 4" by 1" box and includes a folding circular playing board with built-in spinner and wood playing pawns.

Game components include : Gameboard w/ Spinner, 4 wooden Pawns, 40 Insurance Policy cards, 14 Budget cards, 21 Salary cards, 16 Playing pieces (4 wives, 4 houses & 8 children), Play money & instructions.

Two to four players. No age given but around 9 & up. John Hancock Insurance / American Publishing Corp. from 1965.
