> The idea though was so the first player to go doesn’t have an advantage I... the player that goes first has the *EXACT SAME* statistical advantage, regardless how many round trips you do before allowing purchases. No matter how many times you roll the dice, each player will, on average, be ≈7 places in front of the person that rolls after them (not exactly 7, because there are rules for rolling again on matching dice etc.). This is true for the first roll of the dice, and it is true for the millionth roll. The distance between two consecutive players is on average equal to the mean number of places you move on a turn.

Life ain't fair. Neither is Monopoly. That's the point!

Which is basically just a die cast, but extended for no reason 😅
