Board Game: Monopoly
2Fun for the first three or four laps around the board, then it gets REAL tedious.

3Monopoly is awesome!, Its quite a bit like real life though, after a while, it gets boring and frustrating for everyone else except the JP Morgan/Rockefeller type bastards who were the cheating banker and it becomes time to start the game over.

5I only have Kissopoly.
No really. I've played eight, won eight. I might be the world's most successful Kissopoly player. Imagine that.

It's just like Monopoly, but you buy the different variations of Monopoly instead of properties.

7That's amazing.
In order to win ownership of each individual Monopoly square, you have to best the other players in a full game of that particular variant of Monopoly. It would take years.

The strategy is rather simple in my experience. Pretend you're Clear Channel with Powell as the FCC chairman, buy up everything you can, put the exact same cookie cutter shit on every property and fuck everyone else over. Its called Monopoly for a reason

9Q Which is the best property set to snap up first? This question should seperate the real magnate winners from the scrimper losers.

Buy the shit out of everything and mortgage single properties for more cash flow.
-1) All 4 railroads
* One reason why this is the best starting point: the revenue flow from railroads is much more constant over time whereas some of the other properties may have the same ROI but they come with bigger payouts over longer time spans. Owning 3-4 railroads is a cash cow: it will bring a continuous flow of money that can fund your monopolies.
# 3 houses on each of the orange C-G (St James/Tennessee/New York)
# 3 houses on each of the light blue C-G (Oriental/Vermont/Connecticut)
# 3 houses on each of the light purple C-G (St Charles/States/Virginia)
# A hotel on each of the dark purple C-G (Mediterranean /Baltic)
Checkmate! Now king me bitch!
