I took out the game of Monopoly and I set myself as the banker and gave myself all of the properties. I put hotels on each property and owned all the railroads/utilities. I then called in my family of 5 and asked them to sit down and play with me, naturally they wanted to clear the board and I said no, and explained this is a slightly different game. I explained that my great grandfather left me alot of properties and all the money to buy the other properties. I explained that it is acceptable because this type of thing happens all the time in real life and the law supports it. Naturally nobody wanted to play, so I had to sucker them in with a few “loans” to get them started. The loans had interest of course.
