I thought the card was a "debit card", not a "credit card".

Anyhow, the game doesn't reflect the true realities of the times if it still doesn't include bankrupcy court in a player's travels around the board.

Debit cards have nothing to do with debt. They are just like writing a check. Debit cards are not credit cards.

It's just a board game...if parents only rely on Monopoly to teach money management, there's already a larger problem.

Has anyone else noticed all the pink, peach and blue colors they've been putting on real US currency recently? I find it ironic that as real world money starts to look more and more like monopoly money that Parker Brothers should make this change.
