<<No he names LAS VEGAS as a place to avoid. >>

My mothers cousin should have heard that advise. He never had a job and never married, lived well with his mother. She died and left him over 3 sections of good land, paid up nice house and some cash. Value today would be over $10 million but he wanted to be rich so he heads to Vegas. Hocked it all and headed to the crap tables. When he was down to his last $50k the casino wouldn't cover that large of a bet, remember this was in the 60s when that was a lot of money. Dean Martin covered the bet and was nice enough to buy him a bus ticket home. When he died he was a bellhop at the Allerton Hotel in Chicago.
