Money In Vegas

[queen of hearts]

I seriouly wonder how much money is spent in Las Vegas every year??

I know there are people go go to Vegas to gamble and they end up spending several thousand dollars in a short time. I am sure they aren't the only people who do this either.

So I know that there is a ton of money beng spend in Vegas every single year and that is just in the casinos.


There are restaurants, hotels, clubs, shows, tours, museums and more that also bring in a great deal of money into the area. No wonder it is also one of the highest crime rated areas in this country.

Still I would love to visit there some day, maybe on of these days tht will happen, but as I have said before I won't be holding my breath over that one,

I'm sure the money coming into Las Vegas has got to be in the billions each year.
But if you stop to think about it, I bet the overhead and upkeep in Las Vegas has got to be in the hundreds of millions each year too.

Visiting Las Vegas for the first time for any person is an experience they'll not soon forget, if at all.

When I use to drive truck, I drove by Las Vegas on the highway many times, but only stopped a couple times.
I think I tried five bucks on a slot machine once and lost it; didn't know much about gambling on slots back then.

My first real stay in Las Vegas was for four days and I stayed at the Mirage.
Loved visiting the dome where it's kept at about 85 degrees or so when the weather is sizzling outside (I stood by the small waterfall a few times to cool off).

The all-you-can-eat buffet at the Mirage had the best food I've ever tasted, when they had the buffet (not sure if they brought it back since they had closed it).

Whenever you get a chance to go to Las Vegas queen of hearts, you'll be talking about that experience for years.

Believe me I would love to visit Vegas. All I have to do is talk my life into allowing it and my budget as well.

My old man's parents go there at least once a year and I may be going with them the next trip that they take.

Vegas is one place that I refuse to travel to alone. That would be way to frightening for me and probably dangerous!

Though hopefully one of these days I will get the chance to go and I will jump on it, because I have read, researched and heard so much about it that I look forward to experiencing it for myself.

I wonder do the casino's in Vegas have penny slot machines or are they all much more expenive ones??? I am wondering because I hear penny slots are fun and they give you the chance to gamble for longer periods of time.. That is something I would want if they have them!

I can't even imagine the money that is spent there in one year! I am sure it's probably a number that I can't even say lol!

I know for myself I'd have to seriously limit the amount of money that I'd take to Las vegas because I am sure that it would be easy to get caught up in everything and go overboard!
