Losing perception of money in Vegas

[pats3peat]

RX a diverse group of degens and responsible gamblers. Id like your thoughts on perception of money when youre in a crazy place like Vegas.

I mean, you're gambling hundreds, maybe thousands of dollars and it seems like saving $10 on something youre considering buying (like at a gift shop or something) would be pointless because youre so used to big $$ gambling. Anyone else feel this way? You lose perception of money

All the time....Slinging' greens & blacks at the tables, 15$ drinks at a club, tipping galore.....3 days later find a shirt at the mall you really like but won't drop $40 on it.

I lose more perseption of money on the internet then I do in real life.

When I lose a live poker tourney It hurts more then losing one online.

I use coupons all the time now.

I buy all of my drinks wholesale. A friend of mine owns a juice route.


A girl I work with collects cans and bottles at work. She made 4,000 dollars in 12 months.

Agree, there is at at least a casino cashier within 200 yards of the Vegas BJ table, so its more like real money than an offshore balance.

redeeming 80,000 pop cans at 5 cents apiece, sounds like work to me. She earned that money, IMO !

Yea, definitely that too. Hard cash taken more serious than online.

Yeah back in the day I'd be in Tahoe football Sat and or Sun betting parlay cards and calling in my strait bets because couldn't afford opening up my wallet and dishing out my in pocket money,what if I lost you know.

Money has no value at the tables. If you're sitting at the bar, you think, "damn, I don't wanna pay $6 for a Bud Light." So you go buy in at the craps table, order a free Bud Light, drop $100, and feel good because you drank for free.

$6 Bud Lights no good
$100 Bud Lights okay

Gambling is retarded.
