About this Event

Join Nevada Humanities and professor of economics Mark Pingle (University of Nevada, Reno) at The Glass Die on Sunday, October 12 from 1:00 to 2:30 pm for a in-person event. At the beginnig of our program, Pingle will introduce the concept of quantitative easing using examples from 2008-2011 and during COVID to enable participants to understand what quantitative easing is and when it makes sense to use it. Afterwards, audience members will have the chance to put theory into practice and play the board game QE (Lucky Duck Games, 2019).

In the game QE, a term that stands for "quantitative easing", players represent nations who are bidding to bail out companies that are “too big to fail” during the 2008 economic crisis. The central banks have unlimited financial resources, so lots of money is going to be printed, but the central banks also face disaster — print too much money and the country they represent goes bust. At the end of the game, players score points based on the companies they have collected and the player with the most points wins. However, the player who spent the most money during the game is eliminated from competition. They have inflated their currency and trashed their economy.

This is a free event. Space is limited and advanced registration is required. Please note that The Glass Die is a 21+ establishment. Individuals under the age of 21 will not be able to attend.
