Straight out of the Great Depression

It's the best board game yet! Invented during the US Depression it has been translated into many "languages" -- in this case, British pounds. We were playing this evening with wonderful friends. We were wheeling and dealing, just like it's played in the American dollar version. I remember being a kid in Chicago. We played secretly, hiding our loot behind boxes where we would furtively count out our funds and mortgage ourselves to the hilt. Sometimes we kept a game going all week...or longer. Tonight's game -- I won! YES!
