Monopoly City Part 1

Once during the early 1900, some guy or guys, I presume their surname to be Parker. So lets call them Parker Brothers decide to walk around the street of London, thinking how cool it would be to be able to buy those landed properties and build houses or hotels and see who would be the richest bastard on the street. But some how I guess they were poor so they had no choice but to settle their score on a piece of paper with fake properties, probably a pebble representing a house while a stone represent a hotel, and leaves as their money. Over time they decide to add a free parking zone to park their imaginative cars, then came the prison to punish those monkeys who keep buying up all the nice stuff. A few decades later and poof you have the infamous Monopoly Board game.

Back when I was still a kid, you start with 1500, the cheapest property only cost 60! While the most expensive, the infamous Mayfair would cost you a whopping 400! Passing go only gives you 200. But I'm sure most of you are quite familiar with it, if not at least you played one of those cheap and knocked off version like Usahawan or Sardine or something. After so many crises like Dubai Crisis, Sub-Prime Crisis, Credit Crisis, Asia Financial Crisis and Pork Klang crisis and inflation and Nanotech suit cryses. The new updated Monopoly City start you off with 38000000 or 38,000,000! Yup my blog may have a lot of typos, but your eyes do not deceive you neither is a typo! That is 38MILLION!
