True. I've never been much of a gambler (besides actually betting on football lol). I once sat at a bar I think at the Strat, and the bar tender asked if I wanted any quarters...I told him: "No, I'm a winner." He looked at me as if I had two heads. Besides, I was never a drinker either, so Vegas has mostly been good to me when I lived there. It was the people in my direct surroundings that were bringing me down lol. And besides that: I was always near the casinos while I was at work, so didn't also want to be there in my free time. I lived in totally different places too. From the glassbottom motel (is that still there?), to crack city (besides the Strat) and from Decator to Harmon. The last place where I lived was just opposite from UCLV.

Vegas has changed a great deal but not for the better and so much drugs so much prostitution all over the place wherever you go and a lot of shootings up in North Las Vegas many people still go to the casino to enjoy themselves on the weekends remembered it's an amusement park for adults . We have a lot of transits from different parts of the state coming into Vegas in a great deal of homeless people never ending.
Yeah, I've heard that before. At the time I've seen many people come to Vegas with big dreams. Only to see them destroyed by their own actions of gambling, drink and/or drugs. Kids outside of the casinos while their parents were gambling their holiday savings (or worse) away. I've seen many hit rock bottom there and I know it's only gotten worse...Sad.
Everyone has dreams but Las Vegas is not the place to try to find him there's no money at the end of the rainbow but they still keep coming back . And yes they are people that lose their homes their cars even the children from gambling away they left their life savings
