Whew, I'm almost around the board.
I was hoping to get Boardwalk, but my roll came up one short, so I landed on Luxury Tax.
Just my luck !
So, how much will I be paying for this ?


A. $75

B. 10% of my current assets

C. $200

D. $100

Interesting side note..
The amount went up in the U.S. a few years back!!

Hint, you guys... $200 is what you get for passing go...not the luxury tax.

Memory is strange.

But..I did remember this.
Odd.

That's funny, Toni..
Even as a kid..I did not like monopoly.
We'd play it for HOURS, though.:-)
