Monopoly is a board game combining chance and strategy as players attempt to make money. Learn how Monopoly works at HowStuffWorks. Everyone gets 1500 dollars at the beginning of the game. My family distributes this money in a 2–2–2–6–5–5–5 fashion. This is two 500s, two 100s, two 50s, six 20s, five 10s, five 5s, and five 1s. Some people choose to give only one 500 and then se.

Gain cash and ride the rides. Monopoly Junior is an opportunity to travel around an amusement park while winning money from the board.

More importantly however, it is an opportunity to win money from your friends. Here are the Monopoly Junior rules.Monopoly Junior Rules: Setting Up the BoardPlace the board in front of you you can start putting pieces in place. The Chance cards go in their spot of the board.

Set the plastic ticket booths to the side and organize the stacks of money that have undoubtedly gotten disorganized in the box.Pick one player as a banker. This person will have the role of distributing and collecting money throughout the game. For right now however, they can hand each player their initial cash amounts. Each player receives five $1’s, four $2’s, three $3’s, two $4’s, and one $5.The last thing to set up is perhaps the most important. Choose which color car you’ll drive throughout the game and set them on the “Go” spot.Monopoly Junior Rules: A Basic TurnThe game is played in turns. The player with the highest number on an initial dice roll goes first.Each turn is played the same way with a player rolling the die and moving that number of spaces.

Your car will park on different spots and that’s where the game’s complexity emerges. Regardless of the consequences, follow the instructions on the space where you land.Here are the spots you can land.Amusement – If you land on one of the spaces with colored rectangles, you have landed on some aspect of an amusement park and, understandably, will have to spend some money. This can happen a few ways however.If the amusement does not have a booth set up by another player, you must pay the bank the dollar amount listed on the spot. As a result you now may control that amusement square by placing one of your color’s ticket booths on that colored rectangle.If, on the other hand, you land on a spot with an opponent’s ticket booth on it, you must pay the money amount on that spot to the owner of that amusement. If both amusement of the same color are owned by that player, you must pay double that amount.GO! – If you land on or pass the GO!

Spot, you may collect $2 dollars from the bank.Railroad – Railroads extend your turn. Roll the die again and move that number of spaces as if it were one roll.Pay $2 Dollars Spot – Going to see the Fireworks or a Water Show will cost you $2 dollars paid to the “Loose Change” spot opposite GO! on the board.Restrooms – If you land in the restrooms, there is no result to your turn. Landing on the “Go to the Restroom” is much worse. If you land there, pay $3 dollars to “Loose Change” and move your car to the “Restroom” spotChance – Draw a “Chance” card and follow the instructions. Some might move you elsewhere on the board. Some may direct you to put a free booth on a certain color.

If that color is completely occupied by one opponent, this is impossible and you can draw a new card. If however, both spaces are occupied by two different opponents, you can remove one of the two booths.Loose Change – Jackpot! With a few other spots funneling money to the “Loose Change” spot, there is usually a hefty sum to be won by landing there. If you are so lucky, collect that money and laugh at your opponents.Monopoly Junior Rules: Winning the GameThe game proceeds with money traded back and forth until one player has run out. Bionic commando.

When this happens, the player with the most money is the winner of Monopoly Junior.

Hi Jean,I care about the legacy I leave for future generations, and to hear you say you are pleased that Ecotricity have been refused planning permission for more wind farms makes me feel unoptomistic for the world in which my descendants might inhabit.As to subsidies, I’d much prefer to think of my tax going to subsidise the green energy sector than the arms trade, or numerous other ineffecient expensive government departments. Ecotricity is trying against difficult odds to do something worthwhile both globally and locally and I sincerely hope it succeeds. In regards to the distribution network getting funding, I would like to point out as a percentage its still less that what the tax payer has put into ecotricity. Its time the green movement stopped complaining and started acting.

Its getting boring now with the constant attacks on other companies to try and justify increasing their own handouts, maybe ecotricity should be the market leader it claims to be and starts to generate cheap affordable renewable electricity without the need for tax payer support, if you could achieve this you will make a huge difference and get the ball rolling on the low carbon economy you hope to achieve. You need to focus more effort on research and development rather than government handouts and complaining. I agree with Alex when he asked where Dale went. He never keeps his blog up to date anymore and I dont recall the last story in the papers either. He seems to have gone from public interaction and with it has lost his voice.

And Dave the government does fund all renewable energy, have you not seen the price increase every few months. The money is taken from the bill payer and directed towards the green energy providers and generators. Without this green providers could not survive. I think is is about time Dale got back on his soapbox and spoke again, but not about funding and who gets what but the things that matter like he used too. Alex raised a valid point when he told dale to go back where it started and ignite that forgotten voice again. Hi Stuart, you must be kidding, we’ve had so many articles in the papers in the last few months, double page spreads, profiles news pieces – where are you looking if you think we’re not in the papers.

There’s barely a week goes byOK my blog site got a bit neglected, you’ve got a point there, up until this latest post – that was due to being very busy, wrestling with the day job. My bad.WRT bills and money, as above, recent price rises are all about rising global energy prices and rising Distribution costs – as per my post. Wind energy onshore is costing a fiver a year, not more and not rising fast at all.And if you think that’s bad, have you any idea what the new nukes will cost – roughly 3 times as much for each unit of electricity generated – without decommissioning costs.I suggest that would make a more appropriate target for your rising bill anxiety – it’s hideously expensive – and as you say – unable to survive without (massive is fair in this case) support.Cheers.

Hi Alex, I’m not sure if you read my post properly.Your first line refers to the ‘network getting funding’ and how it’s less than what the ‘tax payer has put into ecotricity’.But my post is not about funding by government. What I’ve flagged up is the way the Distribution part of the energy industry is working.Privatised Monopoly providers, regulated by OFGEM, posting incredible levels of profit – and at the same time imposing above inflation price rises on bill payers, for years past and to come. That’s the gist of story.It’s about a part of the energy industry unseen it would appear, by the media and by politicians, and of course the public.Ecotricity has several projects in R&D. FYI.This week we installed our prototype Urbine. A 6kW Vertical Axis machine.We have the Seasraser, undergoing extensive modelling, in preparation for a sea trial.And a device we simply call the black box, it’s aimed at households and creating something we like to think of as ‘intelligent demand’I’m not sure where you’re coming from, your post seems to have an agenda of it’s own, you don’t seem to have read or understand what I’ve written, but have an amount of personal feeling you need to get off your chest.What’s up. Firstly i must apologise im not after insulting you Im just having a go/rant.

Lately all the blogs and posts from ecotricity are about industry monopoly, government rulings, finance and operations very little is written about your true core values which is providing clean renewable energy at affordable prices, ecotricity has many projects so why not focus on promoting what you are doing rather than everyone else to keep your independance and individuality. The papers are full of information like the blogs recently so why imitate you should (in my opinion) shout your own voice “here’s what i’m doing” and give people information on what can be done like you used to. Im probably the biggest pain in my employers ass as i constantly relate our prices and service to fuel poverty; each price increase pushes thousands of households into choosing between heat or food, and with the amount of subsidies offered to green energy, nuclear and coal the ever growing numbers of wind turbines force people to make that choice and its something that should not be a common occurrence in today’s world.

The funding of energy supplies is the biggest threat to our industries future the more funding people get the more the price increases for the end customer (the rich can afford the trendy solar panels and heat pumps but the people who need them the most cannot). The way the industry finances itself at the customers expense drives me mental, you should be focused on finding a way to generate electricity cheaper than coal, the amount of time, money and effort you must got to promoting stories about other companies good/bad should in my opinion be spent on building more generation capacity rather than promoting propaganda. The news on the new wind park is great, 66mw is a lot of power, but in true value doesn’t reduce the overall price of a customer bill. The domestic VAWT is interesting though, I love building those things as Hugh Piggott taught me a lot over the years with his books and seminars, the Searaser needs better results than the neptune project. If you are truly serious about your R&D i will send you a load of info and projects I’ve collected over the past 2 years, its interesting how dirt and water can power everyday appliances if you know how to use it. Also hydrogen fuel cells are easy to build and reliable; there are so many other options to chose from than just wind. If you want the info I will post you a collection of files etc on CD so email the address to post it to if your interested to the email on this post, don’t want anything in return you just read it and let your R&D mind go mad especially if you like step by step guides on how to build cool green energy stuff.
