Although the box is rather worn the board and game pieces were intact and in virtually new condition! It was just the way the seller described it.

Which bills you need will depend on which version of the game you have. At one time, all dollar amounts in the game were multiplied by 10 to keep up with inflation. I have the 1997 version of the game. Denominations are $500, $1000, $10,000, $50,000 and $100,000. Older version use $50, $100, $500, $1,000, $5,000 and $10,000.

You can find score sheets and printable $10,000 and $50,000 bills on my web site at http://scottbryce.com

Kerry – Maybe some of the readers can chime in. We’ve only played one version, so wouldn’t be able to tell.

I had this game in the late 1970s, can’t remember which version I have.

As for the game we have the 1964 version and we play every night! After a while of playing we decided to modify the game to our own liking and try to make it even more challenging.
Example: We make our formula higher, and we have changed quite a few landing spots to our liking, like where you can buy stars and hearts. We changed those to lose 5 stars but gain $1000 and so on…also in the career zones, we’ve made changes.
Awesome game, we love it!

Chrissa – Unfortunately, the game is stored at another family home. So we can’t check to see the quantities of each denomination. However, I don’t think the money supply is finite in the game, so you could use whatever you’d like for currency (such as poker chips).
