If forced to play Monopoly, use this gameplan

If you wanted to go all in on this lesson you could make “real life Monopoly”, where one player starts off owning half of the board and has $10,000 in their hand. Two other players start with 1 random property and the customary $1,500. All other players start with no property and $50, they also only get $50 for passing GO. If any of those players are eliminated from the game they should be called lazy and told to pull themselves up by their bootstraps. The rich player should spend most of his effort trying to turn the other players against each other, telling them how players #2 and #3 are taking opportunity away from the other players every time they buy something, and asking them to contribute to funds to help those high number players. Also, if player #1 is ever forced to pay because he lands on someone else’s property he gets a bailout from the bank to cover his expenses. If any player objects to anything player #1 does they are called a communist and sent to jail.
