Monopoly was started in 1904 when a Quaker woman Elizabeth Phillips created a game though which she in hopes that she could teach the single tax theory of Henry George. Do you think that this game is educational or just a game?

i think monopoly was meant to be a fun way of financial education. think about it, when you were a kid, or now, you learned something. banking, buying, selling and making decision for yourself. that totally makes sense if you're thinking of it as more than just a "game".

It can be educational because it does teaches about money. Handling money. Investments as well. It is a basic learning tool for investing in property and money.
