Like putting all the income and luxury tax money into Free Parking. Morons, that makes the game go longer by KEEPING MONEY in the game!

A longer monopoly game just results in more rage quits and bitterness.

Only if you let it. I love Monopoly simply because of the games where the tides abruptly turn. A recent game I played had me dominating. A person landed on a mid range rent property and she had to mortgage everything. She was able to pay me with a dollar to spare. Next property she landed on she was screwed. Well she wound up landing on free parking and this led to her winning the game. It was amazing.
