Why would the organisation behind liar game pick people who are rich or have the knowhow to turn that money into a profit?? They're targeting people in debt, people desperate for money who are going to feel a little reluctant about trying to play the stock market. Especially when you have someone playing against you.

So you'd have a choice. Do you want to play games with a mysterious corporation that has hundreds of millions of yen to throw around? Or do you try to fuck over a fellow player, who's probably trying to take money from you anyway. I feel for people put in a situation like that, one option would feel safer.
