Elko County dropped 5.6 percent.
What it isn't:
A) The price of gas is lower.
B) Airfare is down.
C) Room deals are finally re-appearing
What it is:
1) Easy unsecured credit is drying up. More people are having to live within their means.
2) Home values are down, which reduces the amount of equity people can borrow against.
3) Many have been laid off.
4) Many fear they will be next.
5) Casino/Resorts focused on luxury vacations, which are one of the first things cut when times are tough.
6) Seasoned players are fed up with bad VP pay tables, 6/5 blackjacks, raised minimums and 1c slot proliferation.
7) Casinos removed the "no strings" attractions such as cheap food. Now you have to play a lot to get a little off.
Looks like some people on here need to get a job... or get laid... lighten up, kids!!!
It's amazing to me that this guy got away with this for as long as he has. Maybe it's time for a ride in the desert with Gweedo. (totally kidding)
