10. China Wins!

China was the first country to create paper money. This occurred over 1,400 years ago. How long did it take before people attempted to counterfeit? It didn’t take long and China was very vigilant in their punishment. Anyone caught counterfeiting their paper currency had their heart cut out. You can read that again. I’ll wait.

More Monopoly money is printed every year than real money (there is $15,140 in a game). I guess this makes sense considering that nothing causes more fights and struggle in families than money, except a friendly game of Monopoly. There are few things worse than watching someone buy up the red and yellow properties, except of course losing because you land on Marvin Gardens with a hotel.
