The Apprentice Desk.
Twenty players, one week. Every call, piece of advice and right answer earns XP. On Monday the top five move up a desk, and the bottom five move down. Five desks: Apprentice, Analyst, Strategist, Judge, Oracle.
- Make one call to take a seat on this week’s desk.
Play with your class or your team.
Teachers, team leads and friends: open a private boardroom, share the link, and see who reads companies best. Everyone still plays the public game too.

Beat everyone else.
Points come when the real world settles your call: a court decides, a vote is counted, a deadline passes. Go against the crowd and turn out right, and you score more. Quizzes add points on the way.
- The board fills as the first calls are settled.
Every month. The best caller wins a signed first edition of The 42 Laws of BANKRUPT, sent when the book comes out on 31 October 2027, and their name on the site.
Every year. The champion has lunch with Max Noble, announced at the Max Noble Awards.
In the book. The top 42 callers of the first year are thanked by name in The 42 Laws of BANKRUPT.
More prizes as the game grows. No purchase needed to play or to win.
Five questions. One week. Beat the board.
Five questions from this week’s companies, the same for every player. Two points for each right answer, and its own leaderboard. A new quiz every Monday.

Read the card
Every company is on my Warning List today. The countdown tells you what happens next, and when.
Make your call
Tap Survivor or Write-off. You can change your mind until the date arrives.
The world decides
A filing, a court ruling or a vote settles each call. Then the story moves on, and you can call the next chapter.
Score and climb
A right call earns ten points, plus up to ten more for going against the crowd, times your stake: Hunch ×1, Think so ×2, Sure ×3. A wrong Sure costs ten. Five cards a day keep your streak alive, with one free miss a week.
Behind every company are people and their jobs. You call the business, never the people. Nobody here cheers a fall.
Triumphs and falls.
Every settled call, in one place. The ones that came through, and the ones that did not.
Came through
- Humac2026-10-25 · Rescued. Closed on 13 August, reopened on 16 September under a new owner.
Fell
- None yet. Every fall will be recorded here, with what it meant.
A game of judgement on public information. It is not investment advice, and nothing here tells you to buy, sell or hold anything.
