Technically, I guess someone else could land on Vermont Ave on their first turn, and then you buy it from them for $1,500 because you really like Vermont Ave. Then on your first turn, you get the $150 school tax card.

Who would pay $1500 for Vermont. I would not even if I needed it for a color group. 1 time I had $14 dollars left and could not pay the $15 poor tax card and several times I went bankrupt in jail, could not pay the $50 get out of jail fee.

why pay $200 over 15% at the beginning of the game?

[Logan]

why pay $200 over 15% at the beginning of the game?

Because you're trying to lose in the quickest way possible. Duh.

[Greyroofoo]

Because you're trying to lose in the quickest way possible. Duh.

then why is he arguing about buying Vermont for $1500?

Because it would be even worse to buy Baltic for $1500.

Donald Trump would be proud.

[EagleFan]

Sounds like the Raider playbook for Monopoly.

[SnDvls]

anyone could land on any property space 1st and elect to not buy it thus putting it up for auction and you buy it for the $1,500.

*tweet* "Picked up the dice early. False start. Go directly to jail, do not pass go, and do not collect $200"

SI

[Warhammer]

Ummm... Isn't losing in Monopoly that quickly really a win?

[Pumpy Tudors]

If you just burned your money or threw it out the window, you'd be bankrupt. You could probably do it before you got to roll the dice, so that's pretty quick.

"Possible" is a bitch of a word.

"Possible" is a bitch of a word.

Or someone could land on Vermont and you buy it for $1500 and then roll 2 and pay $150 school tax card. (gone in 1 roll)

[Passacaglia]

I thought they changed all the properties to various places around the country instead of Atlantic City streets.
