    Jail is the best place to be lategame. Don’t have to pay someone rent if you can’t move. And no risk of picking up a tax card.

    It’s not a punishment to sit in jail, it’s a privilege, if I could. I’d spend the entire game in jail. It’s the only place you’re safe.

        This is from Hasbro themselves

        Even though you are in Jail, you may buy and sell property, buy and sell houses and hotels and collect rents.

      Prison. Not jail.

      Jails are temporary holding areas until you get to see a judge. Which means you could still be innocent at that point.

      Prisons are for folks that have been prosecuted. They belong in prison.

        Tell that to Hasbro then and not the random internet person talking about the game mechanic which the game calls Jail.

        Get the fuck out. In monopoly it’s called Jail. And Monopoly is the topic being discussed.

        So no one cares about if it’s called Prison or Jail in the real world. We’re not talking about the real world. We’re talking about Monopoly.
