Without the extra money, you have to be more careful in how you spend it.

On the down side, most people don't like playing with me. When someone buys everything and lets luck do the rest, they usually get creamed.

LOL I'll bet people don't like playing with you. Adding stuff to Monopoly is a universal tradition. Heck we used to take the money from other games and add it to the bank. Then we allowed loans, double hotels and all kinds of stuff. Threw all the fines/taxes etc. into the middle. For sure we still do the Free Parking one. We play it as a family so the cut throat approach just isn't in the cards.
