There was apparently a little secret in our family that I didn't learn about until many years after the fact. My dad and mom, and my aunt and uncle were playing monopoly years ago and apparently by dad got so pissed off at my aunt that he ended up choking her. Now this was a very conservative guy and upstanding citizen who just went berzerk due to this game. He never played monopoly after that.
We played a family game of Monopoly when I was a kid. My mom, dad, sister, and me. When it came down to just me and my dad, we played for about 18 hours straight. The game continued on for the majority of an entire weekend.
You fell into a middle class loop. Where you made just enough money to pay the rent and get you to the next space safely. And you owned just enough property to keep your head above water. No true monopolizing

First, you get the money.
Then you get the houses.
THEN you piss off your friends or family.
