This article provides instructions and tips on how to implement an eight week Ultimate Trader Challenge on your campus. The Ultimate Trader Challenge drew inspiration from Kyle MacDonald and his, [http://oneredpaperclip.blogspot.com/ One Red Paper Clip] story. Kyle became famous after he managed to make a series of up trades that led him from starting with a small red paper clip to his final trade of a house. This entrepreneurial idea of making smart trades can be implemented and modified to fit a college campus. The basic idea behind it is to have students start with a small object, like a pen, and after 8 weeks, see which student was able to make the best trades. Holding a challenge of this sort on your own campus helps build a community and is also a great marketing opportunity. {{#Widget:Youtube|id=F1_OoICS2b8}}
