It's inevitable really at some point, probably every day actually, you'll lose money playing Monopoly GO! I don't mean real money, but just the money in your game account and in turn your net worth. We take a look at the best ways not to lose money and Net Worth in Monopoly GO!

People are constantly playing the game, and your account will always be open to attack from other players so whatever is in your account and whatever buildings you have in your current location are all up for attack!

While initially it can be quite easy to skip through the various levels of the game, grow your Net Worth and so on, as you get further into the game, it takes more and more game money to complete a location and get to the next one.

This presents a bit of a problem, because while there is cash in your account and while you have partially built locations, these can all be taken down and the associated money and Net Worth of your game account decreased.

While it's not always practical, the best way to prevent your Monopoly GO! account being drained, your buildings trashed and you Net Worth diminished, is to leave as little money as possible in your account and have nothing built.

Attackers can then only take from you the little amount of money you've left in the account and buildings cannot be razed to the ground because there are none!

The problem lies in the later stages of the game when it takes say over a billion to complete a location. This isn't always to get in one dice throw sitting. So what you'll need to do in that case to minimize your risk of losses is to again drain your own account as best you can by purchasing buildings, making sure you have full shields, then come back regularly to make sure your shields have not been drained.

What to know how much each level costs?

There is an alert system in the game which can alert you when you are being attacked so you can jump in, roll a bit and try to get more shields though.

Also there is the problem of being targeted by the same person, I've had this myself a couple of times, where the same person continually attacked my game, it's a bit of a drain on Net Worth, but probably the best thing you can do in that situation is to just unfriend the person .

You can do this by tapping Friends, then going to Leaderboard, selecting friends, then tapping on their name and selecting Remove.

This should mean that they can't easily attack you again... Unless they become your friend again!

With algorithm changes it seems that the frequency of Shut Downs are much higher, if this is happening to you, maybe the only way around it is to play the game only when you have enough time and dice to get enough money to complete a whole landmark. This is what is happening to me now, it's become much more difficult to keep money in the game, so I will only roll when I have enough time and dice to complete a whole landmark location.
