Great short video. On a side note, Trump's dad looks just like Tom Selleck but a little older.

The Scottish accent makes a nice touch.

During the first campaign, Ivanka said as a little girl she would sit on the carpet near her father’s desk and build things with Lego. Trying to imitate him while he was working on designs for real skyscrapers and shopping areas.

The famous architect,Frank Lloyd Wright, was also fond of the game of monopoly AND building blocks. He was formally recognized in 1991 by the American Institute of Architects as “the greatest American architect of all time”.

Learned early on the value of owning Boardwalk and Park Ave.

Mine, too , until Block City came along, and— of course —Legos.
And I think no game—except Chess—is better than Monopoly. When my best grade school friend and I played it, we’d put the “penalty money” we had to pay the bank in the middle of the game board, and if we landed right on “Go”, we could keep it.
Kept the game going for days!:)

I sometimes play a vintage monopoly game on CD against the computer.

A few times I’ve won without Boardwalk and Park Place.

Not often.

I saw a report a few years back from the Monopoly world championship tournament. The strategy the top players used was interesting — and they did NOT place a high value on Boardwalk and Park Place.

Railroads for me. Also, Mediterranean and Baltic.

Cheap to build hotels and good odds to take others pass Go money.

Then the purple properties past Jail.
