Monopoly


quoted from: http://www.allthings.tv/web/index.php/category/Development/P8/
If I am right, the title of the book what I read this evening is "What I learned about business in Monopoly". It indeed made me shock. Here are several Chinese versions Monopoly in Taiwan. As I remember, we all play in one way which is to roll two dices turn by turn until somebody become bankrupt, then the game is over. It was all about luck and a little estimation only. However, I "learned" that the are some important and significant rules in this game. The way to buy a right of street, the way to build a house, the way to apply mortgages, the way to auction, and the way to caculate how much money we exactly receive when other players come to "visit" our streets and properties. Because of auction, mortgage, and the different rule to build houses, this game is much more familiar with fact in society and in the world. Of course, it is simple and easy to deal with all stuff happened in playing time. It is all about business. Risk and opportunity usually come together without absence of each other. It which is to be brave and careful all the time is the fundational condition to achieve a meaningful and successful life. Smooth process leads to a noraml or a fail future, but a process full of challenge leads to a various and beautiful future with posibility. There is not about goodness or badness. It is about what you really want in your heart deeply.
