THE READING ROOM
ACCEPTING A CHALLENGE
CHARLES DARROW was an unemployed engineer when he devised what he
thought was a pretty good children’s board game.
He took the first version to a toy company in 1935, but the company rejected it, saying, the game contained
fifty-two fundamental errors. Many people would have given up at this point. But Darrow accepted the challenge to improve the game.
Today, that game is so popular that its maker, Parker Brothers, prints more Monopoly money than the amount of real money printed by the US Government.
