Yet Parker Brothers reported that the combined fictitious value of their monopoly money, meaning add up all of their orange $500 bills, yellow $100 bills, purple $50 bills, green $20 bills, blue $10 bills, pink $5 bills and white $1 bills, that combined fictitious value is $30 Billion. That’s with a “B”. So nearly 30 times as much Monopoly money than U.S. bills created every year.

Each one comes with $20,580. I am trying to figure the math, but apparently they sell somewhere around 1 million 458 thousand monopoly games per year. You would think almost every household in America would already have at least one game.
