Thoughts on Las Vegas

With this economic downturn, will Vegas come back. Or it is good that Vegas might be in decline. With our savings tapped out, a decline in the gambling industry would result in a decrease in debt and an increase in the savings rate. The money is not spent on the casino should be used to pay down debt and pay for a nest egg.

I have gotten over on the allure of Vegas. This is not a lot for me to do other and especially if you want to escape the booze-filled nightlife of Vegas. The only thing that I like to do in Vegas is play cheap craps at Slots of Fun.

People need to save for their retirement instead of dropping quarters in a slot machine. The slot machine is a vampire. It sucks your money like a vampire sucks your blood.
