Thank you for solving! Many thanks to Larry (lbray53 at the XWord Muggles Forum) for the "turn the corner" inspiration... please stay tuned for more puzzles at PHILSCROSSWORDCORNER
Answer explanation: the rebuses in the four corners in the grid are a pictorial representation of the four corners of a Monopoly board... GO for "pass go," JAIL for "in jail / just visiting," CAR for "free parking," and POLICE for "go to jail"... in Monopoly, you get $200 for passing go (turning the southeast corner), so the meta answer is SE $200
Hah, nice one. Saw an interesting video not too long ago about optimizing Monopoly strategy using AI. Crazy stuff.

First time I’ve used rebus on Crosshare! Usually solve on Puzazz so I can shade and circle lol. Fun one! Best get some sleep now, else tomorrow there might be some bank errors not in my favour…
hahaha thanks for making it over here... my favorite card was "you have won second prize at a beauty contest collect $10" - i thought that was the shadiest card ever... only second place?! how dare they
Fun, thank you! SW was a bit tricky, had never heard of the (Battle of) CER.

Ahh - had to peek at the hint, which gave it away. I could not get past thinking of rotating the squares in the corners… but cute, fun concept nonetheless!
