Exactly. mwah:

Some people are making up those little rules for our real Life Monopoly

[quote="Old Reliable":653e9]you produce too much money and you produce inflation, thereby lowering the cost of each dollar (or pound) and that can't be a good thing. in 1930s germany, I believe it cost a billion german marks for one dollar. some astronomical money.[/quote:653e9]
