Whenever anyone suggests playing Monopoly I always insist on following the rules as written. (Auctions, no money on Free Parking, building evenly across properties, when there’s no more houses left in the bank no one can build houses, etc.) The game goes a little faster that way… because everyone eventually agrees to quit and play something else.
When I was a kid the family rule was that the game is only over once there’s a “real” winner, meaning all the others gone bankrupt. Always great for the first loser and easy 3-4 hour games. I just liked playing the bank and sorting bills.

If you play by the rules the game isn’t that long, either whoever owns orange or who gets lucky at the beginning just wins the game.
