Rich Man, Poor Man, Beggarman, Thief

Starting as "beggarmen," players circle the board working their way up the ladder of success. Beggars can get "charity" from non-beggars, rich men and poor men collect regular incomes, and thieves can steal from rich and poor alike. There's fast money to be made through investments and playing the horses, and faster money through gambling on a dice throw--but developing real estate is safer. The many options and sudden changes of fortune make this an exciting, free-wheeling game. (Description from Nov. 1985 issue of GAMES Magazine, p. 45)
