New S’pore gameshow Moomoo Money Master puts newbie investors into high stakes situations to win S$30K

TheSmartLocal’s new gameshow ‘Moomoo Money Master’ turns beginners into savvy investors

Think your investment game is strong? ‘Moomoo Money Master’, Singapore’s newest business gameshow, is ready to put that to the test, pitting beginners against each other in a high-stakes race to win S$30,000.

Unlike shows like ‘Shark Tank’ or ‘Dragon’s Den’, where seasoned entrepreneurs pitch their polished ideas, this show takes regular folks through a crash course on investing, giving audiences a rare look at what it takes to make bank.

Airing from 26 Nov, this new show by local media company TheSmartLocal will push contestants’ financial savvy, intuition, and even social skills to the limit.

Demystifying investing

For many, investing seems a monumental task best left to professionals. But ‘Moomoo Money Master’ seeks to change that perception, putting 100 everyday Singaporeans into real-world investment situations to show that making smart money moves isn’t as intimidating as it may seem.

The show’s contestants were chosen through a public listing on LinkedIn. They come from all walks of life — from a project manager in a video game company to an executive at a car park management company.

Over four episodes, they’ll take on a variety of challenges, facing realistic investment decisions such as determining saving goals and diversifying portfolios.

But it’s not all fun and games by yourself. Contestants will need to work together or cleverly pull insights from competitors to make smarter moves.

Yet despite the alliances that may form, only one contestant will walk away with the S$30,000 prize.

Four days of challenges

Contestants will need to adapt quickly, as Moomoo Money Master tests their mettle through escalating challenges across four intense days.

From high-stakes quizzes to strategy games that probe their appetite for risk, each round gets progressively tougher, introducing social tactics, partnership deals, and even curveballs like real-world events to shake up their plans.

In the end, only three will make it to the final day, where they’ll face one last challenge that blends everything they’ve learned, vying for the S$30,000 prize based on their final net worth.
