Sorry I got confused and in post 136 I took the “value” from the post in “rules and Participant game boards” thread rather than keeping my closing balance going. The difference was 50 BB so I have deducted it from my opening balance. I still would have been able to perform the actions that I have done.BB Open = 205 BB

O.5) Read a book set in the 1930’s; Monopoly was first published in 1935.
The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay by Michael Chabon is on the best 1930's HF list so I will tackle that one.
10/12 I think I just figured out what I am supposed to do. Here I posted an Opportunity Task but I really need a Tax task. I will use the same book for this task.
T.1) Read a HF book which where a main character’s profession features prominently in the story line.
Sorry for my confusion. Hopefully the book will fulfill the requirement.
