Everything you know about Monopoly is probably wrong. Monopoly is not a game of luck, but a game of skill and strategy. Yes, dice are essential to the game, but luck is only a small factor. The 18 strategies in this book were created to hunt down and eliminate luck from your game as much as possible, and to allow you to win as close to 100% of the time as the dice will allow. Also, Monopoly is not a game of real estate, but a game of war. It is won only when one player is left - When one player remains who has not gone bankrupt. In other words, when all the other players go bankrupt, you win That is how Monopoly is won. Not from buying, renting, or saving money, but by bankrupting your opponents. And how are you supposed to do that? Well, that's what the whole book is about Most Monopoly "strategies" in other books focus on which properties to buy, but which properties a player is able to buy vary greatly from game to game because of luck, (good or bad). As these "strategies" therefore rely on luck, they are not really strategies. Most of the strategies in this book, however, apply no matter which properties you land on, (no matter how lucky or unlucky you are). These strategies offer many ideas on trading, mortgaging, how to expand/build, and how to out-smart your opponents. They also include three chapters about which properties to acquire or to avoid, and one that can help you turn-around a losing game This book will teach you how to: (1.) Take control of the board by preventing opponents from obtaining monopolies while acquiring your own. (2.) Double the amount of cash at your disposal. (3.) Become sneakier and harder to play against while identifying weaknesses in your opponents. (4.) Invest in properties that can do the greatest damage to your opponents with the least cost to you. (5.) Trade to leave opponents deep in debt with monopolies they can't afford while securing your own position. This book is easy to read, understand, and apply for the beginner, as well as enlightening to the already accomplished player. So, if you enjoy Monopoly and simply want something fun to read, or if you very seriously want to learn how to become almost invincible on the Monopoly board, then this is the book for you
