Years ago, while on a trip for work, I went to a Casino at Ledyard, CT. to see what it was like and see if there would be any entertainment there. I heard there was good food and entertainment at casinos. The place had a HUGE parking lot filled with cars (MA, RI, FL, CT, NJ, VT). On the plane to go to my worksite there was a man was flying in from Washington state to go the casino.
In the parking lot there were just common looking cars. The people walking in were common looking people. There were hundreds of different sorts of card tables, electronic slot machines, wheels of fortune and crap tables. It was NOISY.
I looked at the people, the workers, saw an Indian museum, looked at the paintings. There was no entertainment or food worth paying for. There was a place called “Casino Credit”. I imagine you could lose all your money, borrow more, lose it, and pay long after the excitement was gone. Why do they do it? Is it: “I must have it all, I must have it now, any other life is better than the one I have, I must get excitement, I need to be an important person”?
