For the latest edition of the 18th billion Monopoly variation "Here and Now," Parker Brothers will begin phasing out multi-colored cash in favour of a Visa debit card system. The whole idea of using cash cards in children's games isn't new, anybody remember Mall Madness?:
I can only assume that this will lead to a new generation of children developing age-old sneaky monopoly tactics in new and modern ways. Will brothers steal each others identities? Will players have to manage both a monopoly checking and savings account? Will the little debit machine accrue interest on that? Is parking ever really free?

Break the car down yourself, however, and the amount you'll receive will increase significantly.
