BANKRUPTCY..
You are declared bankrupt if you owe more than you
can pay either to another player or to the Bank. If your
,
debt is to another player, you must tum over to that
player all that you have of value and retire from the
game. In making this settlement, if you own houses or
hotels, you must retum these to the Bank in exchange
for money to the extent of one-half the amount paid
for them; this cash is given to the creditor. If you have
mortgaged property you also turn this property over
to your creditor but the new owner must at once pay
.
the Bank the amount of interest on the loan, which is 10% of the value of
the property. The new owner who does this may then, at hislher option,
pay the principal or hold the property until some later turn, then lift the
mortgage. If helshe holds property in this way until a later turn, helshe
must pay the interest again upon lifting the mortgage.
Should you owe the Bank, instead of another player, more than you
can pay (because of taxes or penalties) even by selling off buildings
and mortgaging property, you must turn over all assets to the Bank. In
this case, the Bank immediately sells by auction all property so taken,
except buildings. A bankrupt player must immediately retire from the
game. The last player left in the game wins.
MISCEUANEOUS: Money can be loaned to a player only by the Bank
and then only by mortgaging property. No player may borrow from or
lend money to another player.
