Default Re: Monopoly money gone (aka \'shoot me now\')

"By replacing the cash in Monopoly with a Visa debit card in all future editions of Monopoly, Hasbro puts an end to almost a century of "Monopoly money" jokes and wasted minutes waiting for your sister to dole out $50 because she's the chairman of the board. Instead of divvying up paper 500, 100s and 50s, you'll stick your card into the ATM machine in order to add or subtract from your total. The only problem: knowing how much money everyone else has without some kind of visual indicator. – Jason ChenBy replacing the cash in Monopoly with a Visa debit card in all future editions of Monopoly, Hasbro puts an end to almost a century of "Monopoly money" jokes and wasted minutes waiting for your sister to dole out $50 because she's the chairman of the board.
