So, today, I want to share with you an accumulation of my findings.
With such a game so deeply rooted into my family tree, I became curious one day to find out more.
I grew up playing Monopoly, and I could hardly wait for my son to grow old enough to teach him the game (my daughter is next). I don’t think I’m alone in saying that, though. I’d be lying if I didn’t say that Monopoly has threatened to tear my family apart on more than one occasion while playing. Remarkably, the history of monopoly is a genuinely contradictory one. When you think of Monopoly today, the first things that come to mind are usually “Jail,” “Go,” and a rainbow of brightly colored property spaces.īut, did you know that Monopoly has a hidden past? The Monopoly that families today have learned to love and play is far different from the game’s origins.
