I became addicted after experiencing 3 family deaths in a 3 years, using gambling as an escape instead of grieving and dealing with my emotions. I tried to self-ban myself and was told the person was not there, to come back the next day. This is against the Gambling Commission's rules and ultimately they were fined when I called the State Board. They sent somone to help me complete the self-ban form. I have not gambled for 7 years. Casinos prey on the older ,lonely and isolated. Senior groups who take buses to casinos are not doing those who are addicted or prone to be a favor. It is a growing problem that is not talked about enough.

I was thinking the same! They put a certain amount they'll gamble in the machine. Towards the end, as the money runs out, they win back the amount they put, essentially gambling the same amount forever until they pass. Sort of tricking them.
Currently recovering from gambling addiction. I know some people can do it without being addicted but either way casino always wins.....fuck the casinos.
A friend of mine introduced me to slots and I made $1k first night....15 years later...I'm still gambling. I quit for awhile and got right back after 2 deaths in the family. I became very depressed and gambling ( slots) became my confidant.
They barely touched on that and also I think from observation that their is at least two to one female to male ratio of slot players , maybe hubby has passed on, and maybe those flashing lights and god awful noise is not as addictive to the male brain, whatever, they (government and casino, clubs and pubs here in AU) have found a way to get woman to gamble and gamble a lot , they will ride that baby into the sunset.
I am 70 yrs old and I have been to casinos all over the US and on cruise ships. I have been to Vegas at least 50 times but I have never played till I was completely broke.I never spend more than a hundred dollars a day.I have always won more times than I have lost.Life itself is a gamble,you come into this world with nothing and you leave this world with nothing.So enjoy your life to the fullest.

Great idea for a video - the commercials vs reality. Most people don't realize those "old folks" in casinos might be gambling away their life savings. Very sad.
TRUE, I DELIVERED MAIL TO A NURSING HOMES SOME DO NOT GET VISITORS---THEY GO WITHOUT A SHOWERS FOR DAYS----THEY PEE ON THEMSELVES----THEY POOP ON THEMSELVES AND ON THE TOILET SEATS....I KNOW BECAUSE I USED THEIR BATHROOMS, NOT THE TOILETS....CASINOS TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE OLD AND THE YOUNG TO..THEIR KIDS IGNORE THEM..
Jose D some people deserve to die alone. Newsflash: Pedophiles and abusive/neglecting/irresponsible parents get old too. I know you expect pedophiles to get frequent, warm & fuzzy visits from their abused children. I do not.
There should be other opportunities to socialize without gambling.Seniors get lonely and isolated,they deal with pain and discomfort.The system uses their weakness to trick them into casinos and takes their hard earned savings away.Let's face it the casinos are only filling up the pockets of OLG. Shame on the casinos and the government to create these growing gambling problems.
Irma NV. - You're absolutely right my friend. Do you know who I blame though? The friking governments (State). They know all this but they're allowing it to happen. Money hungry and evil, telling the public to gamble knowing it's very addicting. The solution is to shutdown all casinos before ruining people's life.
I drive a casino bus they have fun they run every 2 to 4 hours during the day. Older people are just like anyone else you have to be responsible with your money.
What people fail to recognize is many of the seniors in these homes could have been teacher's, doctor's, lawyers or a decorated veteran. If they want to go, let them go! They paid their dues! However, in the elderly care facility they should also have weekly meetings about addiction and ensure the elderly have a set budget. All they really want to do is escape, be with friends and feel a live and young again. I gambled many years and speaking from experience. Family that abandon a person that goes to the casino, is just upset that when they pass they're not going to get their money. They should be ashamed of themselves and happy their loved one is having fun once a week. Again, in moderation.
Excellent comment but a little hard on family don't you think. Many elderly become impossible to deal with for various reasons and family members lose patience. It is not always greed or money.
Here in America door to door service would have casino owners and transit CEOs rolling in the aisles. Here you pay between $30 - $40 to get to casino and back. When you arrive you get a bonus depending on what casino you frequent. Usually its between $25-$35 dollars. That's not anything to get excited about, the slots (pokies) eat that up immediately. There no food vouchers. Our casinos make sure you "pay to play". The perks only come to you after the cash comes to them first.
Meh.. there are always addicts to everything: food, alcohol, gambling, drugs etc. There will always be those who lack self control and are easily addicted to things. Just how it is.
Tyler The Multiplier Genetics likely play a large role in having an addictive personality. However, that’s not an excuse. Plenty of people quit gambling and drugs for good. You aren’t responsible for your genetics, but you are responsible for your actions, even if it is harder for you to control compared to others.
Ryan people quit all the time but the chance of relapse when it comes to drugs, alcohol, sex, food, mental health etc...they are more likely to relapse then to quit it’s sad!
Ryan you say why blame casinos cause peep can get addicted to everything, well, I agree with you!! Re casinos......Guaranteed way to lose and have a frown as you lose is to stay too long .

Not enough is being done. So true. The cost of transporting people means they indeed become captives for as long as the casino designates. And don't worry about running out of money. The ATMs are ready to charge you big bucks while you drain your account in the heat of a gambling fever. I recently saw that a female attorney who has emerged from a rock bottom gambling addiction is going to sue the casinos for not taking responsibility or even recognizing the role they are playing in producing this gambling epidemic. Casinos need to be held accountable. If this was drinking, the bartender or establishment are accountable to stop serving someone who has had enough.. This poor woman said she would spend several days at a time there. Surviving on OJ and candy bars. And get this - cleaning her teeth with wet wipes. Obviously in the same clothes. Casinos could care less. But hopefully she will manage to set a legal prescidence so more people can get back some of the money they have lost.
People still need to be accountable. SOME may lose control, but they still decide to step onto a bus to go to a casino. If their retirement homes were actually in the casino or maybe physically beside one, then your comment may have some merit. These casinos are not a simple bus ride away, it can be 1.5-2 hrs ... one way. People like you lump all seniors and other "gamblers" into the same category of some sort of degenerates. Believe it or not (and I don't care if you think if I'm lying) but a lot of people do have control. I do believe we do need government for regulations, for example the US and net neutrality, but I am not on the extreme that we need the government to basically baby us. And I do feel for the woman in your OJ and candy bar example but lets say instead she went drinking and driving. Would you blame the LCBO instead?
Arthur Withheld Sir I'm not addressing people who think they can handle gambling. I am not lumping all gamblers together. If you feel you are a responsible gambler more power to you. No I am specifically refering to people who can not control themselves. People who actually get caught in the snare. So argue your point somewhere else as this article is obviously not about you. Its about problem gamblers that casinos manipulate and take advantage of. Its about people who have lost their ability to be accountable. Its about an addictive behavior that has reached epidemic porportions in America. Particularly with some of the most vulnerable of our society - seniors.
Darna Bedwell casinos have no legal right (or moral in my opinion) to spot and stop problem gamblers, the same could be said of problem shoppers who spend there money at stores instead of Casionos, and arguably more people have lost more money and gone into debt then going to casinos
Ken hurt himself, so why does his adult kids not want anything to do with him? Not like he loss the home while they were still home. I don't get it. My father was compulsive gambler-he made us angry at times-but we never abandoned him. And thanks to my mother, we never were homeless or without our needs met.
I am 86 years old and drive 1200 miles to Las Vegas to gamble once a year. When I can't drive to Vegas, it means that I am not capable of gambling either. I am smart enough to play only craps with 20X odds and $5 minimum. I quit when I lose $700 or win $1700, whichever comes first. When I win, it is a free vacation and when I lose, I debit it as a recreational expense. When my brains go, it's time to stay home.

@@Bogolyubovos Playing odds on the crap table is the only bet where you have an even chance of winning against the house. You bet $5 on the PASS line and if no one wins, the number determines the exact odds. 20X maximum means you can bet up to $100 to take advantage of this "no house advantage". This is important for gamblers without too much money to wager and that is why $5 minimum bet is important. The big casinos usually have the 3-4-5 rule max odds and higher minimum bets, so the change of losing at the big casinos is greater than the casinos wit $5 min and 20X odds. You need to know the basics of craps to understand what i am saying.
Gambling has a lot of similarities with drinking. Most people can enjoy a glass of wine with dinner or enjoy a beer or two at a ballgame and it's not a problem at all. For others, they don't know when to stop and drinking destroys their family, career and health. I enjoy playing poker once or twice a month but I only buy in with chips I can afford to lose if things don't go well. Most players at the table are the same way but I've seen some that clearly can't afford to be there. When those players lose it's a bit disturbing to see their anger and dejection because you know that they're going to have to beg, borrow or steal to make their rent payment that month.
Casino's do target the senior citizens, that is true. I applied for a job when a casino was newly opening in Canada and they said that seniors are their biggest customers.
you're right, they should target 20year olds and middle aged people. It's well-know that those people have a ton of free time during the day on weekdays (between 9am and 5pm)... and North American population is getting younger. Also, I suggest we should gas people over 60. They pay no taxes, they're not "productive" and are therefore not entitled to have any entertainment. It's not a scandal if a 45yo gambles his money but a 65yo lady absolutely can't just because she's "old" and therefore a poor/mindless/victim/senile/vulnerable baby.
Ocourse we ate. I am no longer able to do any physical . the only thing for ud to do is go out to eat and go gambling. There is nothing else i am interested in. I pay every one of my bills when my check comes in. I do not have kids. And my house is paid for. So if i want to take a 100 dollars to the casino and have a little fun who's business is that?
It’s by choice we don’t have to be a gambler, drugs users, smokers etc.. but it’s out there you choose what you want to do with your life and how to live it. Just subbed to this channel to see what people have to say. Thanks and have a good day.
SOME SEE IT THAT WAY, I'M GOING TO DIE SOON, LET ME HAVE SOME FUN....BUT MANY WANT TO WIN THE BIG JACK POT AND IT NEVER COMES, BECAUSE THE SLOTS ARE SO FIXED IS IMPOSSIBLE TO WIN..
@Chester Smith My granny passed away over in the east coast six years and two months ago. She used to be an obsessive gambler and lost lots of money at Atlantic City many times before. She lived to be ninety-four years.
The old are bored. What else are they suppose to do??? Maybe government should allow old folks homes to have a little casino in their facility so they can play slots....
Really nice family you have there abandoning you because you are broke. I went on the fun bus (senior citizens bus) to the casino. They are at the casino for 6 hours before the bus returns. A lot of older people have nothing else to do so they spend their social security money.
I actually know ken, his situation is a lot more complicated than just being broke. The wife and kids have merit to leave! But ken himself is still one of my favourite people, and i look up to him!
I go to Casinos all the time. And we have mostly elderly on our plane trips. I see the older ones playing, but never big, they can set in front of a penny machine, etc.. for hours.
Of course if u got addicted to casino u gamble !!!! If you are responsible with principles first! Then have fun! When we are dead no more fun, the old need to have fun ?

Lighten up people. Seniors have a lot more fun playing, sometimes winning, eating out with their friends and meeting people their own age group at the casino than watching the paint at their apartments.@@slerickson01
@@melbedewy That's not true and I have a good reason to say that. For one thing most people who play there are come alone and also not everyone wins. Even if they win they come back and lose it all. This system was designed to get every penny you have until zero. At one time a young couple who were playing at a casino told me that they have lost over a hundred thousand gambling. They couldn't explain to me why they were still gambling after I asked them what then are you doing playing and gambling more of their money. Most people don't tell others that they are losing. Some does but the majority keep it quite, I think
every mall, movie theater and park on a Tuesday at 2pm is full of youngsters and middle age people... stop being delusional. Aging population... I guess you didn't get the memo yet. It's been sent some mere 20 years ago. It will get to you one day.
Most people are couples or groups of family/friends. MOST of us go with a set amount and stop if we lose. Just like a concert, opera, play, musical, etc. Except unlike that entertainment sometimes we walk away even or better yet ahead. Never did that at a theater.@@dragonlee4065
Here's an idea for a senior. Pace yourself when you get to a casino. Play a little. Get up and walk to get lunch. Play a little more. Get up go to the bathroom. Get back. Play a little more. Get up and go watch the band play a few songs. Never sit in front of one machine for 5 hours straight. It usually will zap you.
don't believe it. you don't live for eighty years and get stupid. they just want to have fun. the senior home dosent want them to do that because in the end they get there money and stuff. grandpa and grandma go spend it all
As u age all seniors got to have fun with moderation of course; now when they get worst they won’t have fun , of course we all keep eyes on mom dad grands : I brather see my parents happy having fun ; but with moderation they deserve it ; casinos is only fun but to me it can get boring ; is ok to spend if u got extra is ok to enjoy be happy , goodness young adults sons daughters please take care of parents and grands🙆🏻♀️❤️❤️🌹

Seniors on fixed incomes have no compunction to spend hundreds of dollars at the casino, but increase their Medicare premium by a few dollars - and it’s time to bring out the defibrillator. 😲
When I was going to casinos some times good some bad but I meet so many people that were awesome. when you win you share with others it's good karma it's good luck. You got to know when to hold them.know when to folde them.
We go to the casino twice a month as a way to get away from "dead people" at our family funeral homes. Went yesterday and I remarked, I've been dodging walkers and wheelchairs all afternoon. I do worry about them not being able to afford being there.
I think gambling at casinos as an activity foisted on elderly and disabled people in independent living facilities is just plain wrong. If this is such a fun and harmless activity, why not take kids in summer camps to casinos on school buses and gamble using their weekly allowance money? When you have a captive audience with limited capacity for being able to get around on their own and reduced mental capacity to think through what they’re doing before they do it, what you’re doing is stealing from them. It’s why children aren’t allowed to gamble. No one would ever suggest that gambling for kids is fine as long as they don’t gamble beyond their financial resources and attend courses on how to curb their gambling activities if those get out of control.
Indeed the casinos are targeting seniors -- the young -- the old. Older people get to still have some fun. The problem is people who spend too much. The person (Ken) is absolutely right -- you get to be with friends, not be sick, etc. If you bet minimum, then you can still have fun. Gambling Addiction is another problem. I am DISABLED .. I can play baseball, badminton, volleyball etc. I can hobble around the casino -- make some money, lose some money (more than I win). They money goes back to the Ontario government. Tou don't live long.
Lottery is just a "hidden tax" on the poor. The odds are clearly stated but people still plunk down a couple bucks just to be in the running. I can't blame or fault anyone who buys lottery tickets or plays the Lotto but obviously they aren't buying with any expectation of "really" winning, but are instead buying Hope. No wealthy people (that I'm aware of) play Lotto or other games with millions to one odds. Sell "Hope" to the poor just to shake a few more bucks out of the poorest taxpayers..
@@lvteachme973 , how about you play the game in order to get money in order to put it into things that will make you far more money so that you can earn enough to take down the Luciferian globalist elite from the inside? When you break the system, you break the cycle of exploitation.

An elderly member of my family got hooked on to gambling thanks to those brain-sucking slot machines; became so financially unstable and blind due to the addiction, that she desperately sold the family homestead to pay her debts without consulting other family members. This action made my relatives upset and till this day they hold a strong resentment to her for giving away our family's heritage -built & set by our ancestors. Nobody is willing to take care of her now that she's older, she still gambles and spends her pension asking others for more money, and takes antidepressants to cope with the abandonment of her loved ones.. This makes me very sad because this issue creates a lot of conflict between my family, no one wants the responsibility of dealing with a selfish and narcissistic being like my grandmother. Any advice?
It is people looking for an hope of hitting it big, what people don't see is the lose of their income or losing an amount that should be banking. It is also the local bingo groups that make it easy to lose money with the hopes of making an little bit to keep coming back. It is yes a social group for an lot of people and it is not just over the over 50 or older. It is also younger people looking for a quick cash win fall. If they could not get out there is always online gaming.
The other sad fact, when you think about it, is that these poor elderly folk are trying to win money to set their families up. If their families never come around, they sure will once Grandma's hit big. Sad, sad, sad.
Since government is subsidizing casinos, then the government should give seniors a kind of subsidy for entertainment they can use for anything they want, to keep them from getting into depression due to isolation or abuses from their caregivers or just from being idle all day and I bet there will be a lot less lonely seniors. And happy seniors means healthy mind and body.
Your brain is a super computer,all the technology in the world can not imitate it.The more information you put into it the wiser you become.Your brain is constantly learning it is always in learning mode.I am 70 yrs old and I am constantly learning new ideas and more ways to get creative.
I think a lot of them just do it out of loneliness and boredom sadly. 😔 but maybe for a little fun too.... Who knows. I don’t think they even really care about winning at the end of the day!
The way I see it, it is our money. If we want to gamble so be it. I certainly am not going to give it to the charities to give to themselves instead of helping people. My kids love for us to go.
My guess is that seniors have more money to spend than younger people, and probably a smaller percentage has 'gambling addictions.' This report is off base, I think.
Perhaps if the Children of these Adult Children with Children, included them more in Activity, there would not be the need for this Costly Crutch of survival and changes in their lives. In some cases perhaps some of them had or have a small nest egg that the rotten Kids did not know about. They are mainly pissed that they are not giving them the money to go to the Casino,, or other types of enjoyment. There are 2 sides to every story,, and somewhere in the Middle is the Truth. I wished I had my Parents back,, they were never out of my life, nor ever were in a NURSING HOME,, Sad Situation right here in this Video. They have done their job of raising their Children,, so just let them enjoy with their friends,,, WHO LISTEN and UNDERSTAND.
Casinos are like Alcohol or Drugs. You don't have to gamble, just like you don't have to drink or do drugs. If grandma likes her wine too much you attempt to intervene in some way. If a friend is into drugs you do the same. If you are gambling away the rent and grocery money you are no better, or worse, than a person who drinks/drugs away the rent and grocery money. Any 12 step program can work for ANY addiction if you are honest and set your mind to it. 1st you have to ADMIT the problem.
Twelve step programs are Antichrist, and ditto for drug rehabilitation centers that make people addicted to drugs so that they can switch from being addicted to one deadly drug to another deadly drug.
This is kind of demeaning to the older folks who look forward to going to Vegas . I am a 70 year old lady . I am getting on a plane in two days and heading for Vegas for a week . I go times a year . I look forward to the travel , I can afford it and it is fun ! I deserve it . Leave me alone .
what makes you think that you have a right to say what they should do with their money. I have my good memories with my friends and husband while gambling to show for it.
Businesses can "target" whomever they like. It's up to the individual whether or not it has an effect. We're all "targeted" by businesses all the time. I feel bad for these old folks. And I think, for some of them who don't get addicted, getting out and doing something normal is a relief, compared to sitting at home, alone, popping medication and watching Hard Copy or whatever.
they're also assuming that it's the same people going there week after week. What if someone goes to the casino once a month (that's 12 times in a year) and gambles (and let's assume loses) 250$ each time. How's that scandalous when you just spent 2,700$ on your 7-day all-inclusive trip in Mexico. Were you a victim of the scandalous marketing of the travel/airline/packaged tour industry?

This is incorrect when it comes to addictive products like alcohol, nicotine and other drugs, and gambling. Businesses aren’t allowed to target vulnerable populations in many countries, but we definitely need more regulation. Let’s see how you feel once you get old and could become addicted, seeing your old friends lose everything.
@@gabebarbieri194 When I get old, I would like to think that I'm not completely mental, and still have the ability to make decisions that are in my best interest. That's what I expect from all people. Adults shouldn't need hand-holding, especially by a government through regulatory action. Casinos are popping up everywhere now, but you don't have to go to any of them. Marijuana is legal in more places around the country every year, but you still don't have to puff if you don't want to.
Sean Ye government isn’t the solution to all human problems, fool. There is such a thing as a will, dignity and personal responsibility. Stop asking govt to babysit everyone. You may be a low IQ weak victim. Not everyone is.
No one can blame the government about this casinos we make our own decisions on gambling No one is forcing us to go gamble. The temptation is everywhere we decide to make or leave.
Why is it that when people talk about older people they act like older adults have no brain. Dragging these people to the casino's?? I did not see one person being "dragged" Yes you can get an addiction but very few people do. I don't belong to any old folks home but I do love to gamble and I am 67 years old. I pay my rent and my bills and then I go gambling. I wont save my money for my kids or grandkids. I have kids that love to visit me. Not like the gentleman in this video where his kids don't want to have anything to do with him. I would think those kids were already selfish in the first place. I wonder how many kids would come to him if he happened to get lucky and win millions. I am so sick of people thinking because you are over 50 you no longer can think or yourself.
LONELINESS---DEPRESSION ---DRIVE SENIORS TO THE CASINOS...THE CASINOS ARE FIXED TO SCREWED YOU....THEY PLAY LOUD MUSIC ON PURPOSE---THEY DIM THE LIGHTS ON PURPOSE---THEY BLOCK THE WINDOWS SO YOU CAN'T SEE OUTSIDE...
They worked their whole damn lives. Let them go do whatever they want to do. Half of them were going to give it away to some aloof grandchildren anyway
Actually, done responsibly, taking advantage of all the "comps" offered by the Casinos, it's difficult to find a more economical avocation. But people who don't care to learn the game and are there for strange emotional reasons, need to get the heck outta there.
Gambling and poker machines are incredibly evil incredibly unproductive , I have lost enough and I have realise it’s a huge scam it did take one night of going into a casino saying I’ll just spend this $50 I ended up losing $1,000 in that very same night and that was enough for me !! Incredibly evil casinos are destroying the fabric of society when you don’t win it makes you incredibly angry , first you will win then you will lose big time as the bets get higher
Iam 74 yrs old I just came from micho picho I spend 45 grand with my friend since we were children she to is a widow ! She like a sister to me! Her parents were well off only child so we are happy ! She got to meet a gental men in Hawaii ! I didn’t like him he never payed a meal so I told Shirley he was a loafer! So we lost him ! I told Shirley let him fine a lady that will pay his meals🙆🏻♀️🙏😁

Bingo in nursing homes is common, win and you get an apple. Families could step up and care for their loved ones, however this society is so selfish they let the old folks rot in nursing homes. Not only.the lonely old folks are to blame, the selfish children and grandchildren need to get priorities in line.
This was 11 years ago. We millenials remember perfectly well how long boomers have insisted it is our generation which is full of snowflakes and self-made victims. Cry us a river.
That's true one time I stayed all night after 830 am I saw the first buses arrive the sinors didn't walk they had no pain they ran inside some with Walker's some whelll hair pushing people.
Seniors who spend their Time n Money in casinos SHOULD be ashamed of themselves!! Join Senior Associations n participate in activities such as tai chi exercises; yoga stretching; social dancing; jazz dancing; karaoke singing; buffet lunches n dinners; excursions; overseas tours; fund-raising events; seminar talks; play mahjong, bridge, poker, monopoly, cluedo, scrabble, chess, n MANY MORE social activities AND functions. AND of course, u CAN meet MORE people n make MORE friends! And if u hv Excess money, donate money to the Association so that greater expansion AND betterment can be carried out.

I became addicted after experiencing 3 family deaths in a 3 years, using gambling as an escape instead of grieving and dealing with my emotions. I tried to self-ban myself and was told the person was not there, to come back the next day. This is against the Gambling Commission's rules and ultimately they were fined when I called the State Board. They sent somone to help me complete the self-ban form. I have not gambled for 7 years. Casinos prey on the older ,lonely and isolated. Senior groups who take buses to casinos are not doing those who are addicted or prone to be a favor. It is a growing problem that is not talked about enough.
J. U. Thanks for your exceptional note! Good for you!!

Put a row of free slots in the elderly home. Problem solved.
LOL!!!!!!
Winners get extra fruit cup for dessert.
I was thinking the same! They put a certain amount they'll gamble in the machine. Towards the end, as the money runs out, they win back the amount they put, essentially gambling the same amount forever until they pass. Sort of tricking them.
Currently recovering from gambling addiction. I know some people can do it without being addicted but either way casino always wins.....fuck the casinos.
Rocket001000 Rocket001000, ur dead right. house always wins. it is a business. i feel so bad for gambling addicts. it is a drug to some people.
A friend of mine introduced me to slots and I made $1k first night....15 years later...I'm still gambling. I quit for awhile and got right back after 2 deaths in the family. I became very depressed and gambling ( slots) became my confidant.
Big wins, could cause addiction 😢
As long as you are not addicted, it is fine
Target the seniors?? I know where this is going---their kids & grand kids see their inheritance going out the window!!
Good critical point. Diminish the amount they receive directly, while they control what is dispensed digitally through insurances and trusts.
They barely touched on that and also I think from observation that their is at least two to one female to male ratio of slot players , maybe hubby has passed on, and maybe those flashing lights and god awful noise is not as addictive to the male brain, whatever, they (government and casino, clubs and pubs here in AU) have found a way to get woman to gamble and gamble a lot , they will ride that baby into the sunset.
Its not the kids or grandkids money
I am 70 yrs old and I have been to casinos all over the US and on cruise ships. I have been to Vegas at least 50 times but I have never played till I was completely broke.I never spend more than a hundred dollars a day.I have always won more times than I have lost.Life itself is a gamble,you come into this world with nothing and you leave this world with nothing.So enjoy your life to the fullest.

Great idea for a video - the commercials vs reality. Most people don't realize those "old folks" in casinos might be gambling away their life savings. Very sad.
If you don't regularly call/spend time with your elderly parents/grandparents, you're part of the problem.
exactly.
TRUE, I DELIVERED MAIL TO A NURSING HOMES SOME DO NOT GET VISITORS---THEY GO WITHOUT A SHOWERS FOR DAYS----THEY PEE ON THEMSELVES----THEY POOP ON THEMSELVES AND ON THE TOILET SEATS....I KNOW BECAUSE I USED THEIR BATHROOMS, NOT THE TOILETS....CASINOS TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE OLD AND THE YOUNG TO..THEIR KIDS IGNORE THEM..
Very true!
Jose D some people deserve to die alone. Newsflash: Pedophiles and abusive/neglecting/irresponsible parents get old too. I know you expect pedophiles to get frequent, warm & fuzzy visits from their abused children. I do not.
So very true.
There should be other opportunities to socialize without gambling.Seniors get lonely and isolated,they deal with pain and discomfort.The system uses their weakness to trick them into casinos and takes their hard earned savings away.Let's face it
the casinos are only filling up the pockets of OLG. Shame on the casinos and the government to create these growing gambling problems.
Irma NV. - You're absolutely right my friend. Do you know who I blame though? The friking governments (State). They know all this but they're allowing it to happen. Money hungry and evil, telling the public to gamble knowing it's very addicting. The solution is to shutdown all casinos before ruining people's life.
The "system"? Conspiracy much ?
@@sunnyscott4876casinos
The last time I went to casino i saw older people too but then I realize i was looking at myself in a mirror.
I drive a casino bus they have fun they run every 2 to 4 hours during the day. Older people are just like anyone else you have to be responsible with your money.
exactly.
What people fail to recognize is many of the seniors in these homes could have been teacher's, doctor's, lawyers or a decorated veteran. If they want to go, let them go! They paid their dues! However, in the elderly care facility they should also have weekly meetings about addiction and ensure the elderly have a set budget. All they really want to do is escape, be with friends and feel a live and young again. I gambled many years and speaking from experience. Family that abandon a person that goes to the casino, is just upset that when they pass they're not going to get their money. They should be ashamed of themselves and happy their loved one is having fun once a week. Again, in moderation.
Excellent comment but a little hard on family don't you think. Many elderly become impossible to deal with for various reasons and family members lose patience. It is not always greed or money.
I agree! Let them play!
Here in America door to door service would have casino owners and transit CEOs rolling in the aisles. Here you pay between $30 - $40 to get to casino and back. When you arrive you get a bonus depending on what casino you frequent. Usually its between $25-$35 dollars. That's not anything to get excited about, the slots (pokies) eat that up immediately. There no food vouchers. Our casinos make sure you "pay to play". The perks only come to you after the cash comes to them first.
Meh.. there are always addicts to everything: food, alcohol, gambling, drugs etc. There will always be those who lack self control and are easily addicted to things. Just how it is.
Ryan is self control have to do with your genetics or is it something you develop while growing up?
Tyler The Multiplier Genetics likely play a large role in having an addictive personality. However, that’s not an excuse.
Plenty of people quit gambling and drugs for good. You aren’t responsible for your genetics, but you are responsible for your actions, even if it is harder for you to control compared to others.
Ryan people quit all the time but the chance of relapse when it comes to drugs, alcohol, sex, food, mental health etc...they are more likely to relapse then to quit it’s sad!
Ryan you say why blame casinos cause peep can get addicted to everything, well, I agree with you!!

Casino's are not built on the backs of winners.
Totally agreed!
Not enough is being done. So true. The cost of transporting people means they indeed become captives for as long as the casino designates. And don't worry about running out of money. The ATMs are ready to charge you big bucks while you drain your account in the heat of a gambling fever.
I recently saw that a female attorney who has emerged from a rock bottom gambling addiction is going to sue the casinos for not taking responsibility or even recognizing the role they are playing in producing this gambling epidemic.
Casinos need to be held accountable. If this was drinking, the bartender or establishment are accountable to stop serving someone who has had enough..
This poor woman said she would spend several days at a time there. Surviving on OJ and candy bars. And get this - cleaning her teeth with wet wipes. Obviously in the same clothes. Casinos could care less. But hopefully she will manage to set a legal prescidence so more people can get back some of the money they have lost.
People still need to be accountable. SOME may lose control, but they still decide to step onto a bus to go to a casino. If their retirement homes were actually in the casino or maybe physically beside one, then your comment may have some merit. These casinos are not a simple bus ride away, it can be 1.5-2 hrs ... one way.
People like you lump all seniors and other "gamblers" into the same category of some sort of degenerates. Believe it or not (and I don't care if you think if I'm lying) but a lot of people do have control.
I do believe we do need government for regulations, for example the US and net neutrality, but I am not on the extreme that we need the government to basically baby us.
And I do feel for the woman in your OJ and candy bar example but lets say instead she went drinking and driving. Would you blame the LCBO instead?
Arthur Withheld
Sir I'm not addressing people who think they can handle gambling. I am not lumping all gamblers together. If you feel you are a responsible gambler more power to you. No I am specifically refering to people who can not control themselves. People who actually get caught in the snare. So argue your point somewhere else as this article is obviously not about you. Its about problem gamblers that casinos manipulate and take advantage of. Its about people who have lost their ability to be accountable. Its about an addictive behavior that has reached epidemic porportions in America. Particularly with some of the most vulnerable of our society - seniors.
Darna Bedwell casinos have no legal right (or moral in my opinion) to spot and stop problem gamblers, the same could be said of problem shoppers who spend there money at stores instead of Casionos, and arguably more people have lost more money and gone into debt then going to casinos

I am 86 years old and drive 1200 miles to Las Vegas to gamble once a year. When I can't drive to Vegas, it means that I am not capable of gambling either. I am smart enough to play only craps with 20X odds and $5 minimum. I quit when I lose $700 or win $1700, whichever comes first. When I win, it is a free vacation and when I lose, I debit it as a recreational expense. When my brains go, it's time to stay home.

@@Bogolyubovos Playing odds on the crap table is the only bet where you have an even chance of winning against the house. You bet $5 on the PASS line and if no one wins, the number determines the exact odds. 20X maximum means you can bet up to $100 to take advantage of this "no house advantage". This is important for gamblers without too much money to wager and that is why $5 minimum bet is important. The big casinos usually have the 3-4-5 rule max odds and higher minimum bets, so the change of losing at the big casinos is greater than the casinos wit $5 min and 20X odds. You need to know the basics of craps to understand what i am saying.
Gambling has a lot of similarities with drinking. Most people can enjoy a glass of wine with dinner or enjoy a beer or two at a ballgame and it's not a problem at all. For others, they don't know when to stop and drinking destroys their family, career and health. I enjoy playing poker once or twice a month but I only buy in with chips I can afford to lose if things don't go well. Most players at the table are the same way but I've seen some that clearly can't afford to be there. When those players lose it's a bit disturbing to see their anger and dejection because you know that they're going to have to beg, borrow or steal to make their rent payment that month.
Good show loved the Shaun O'Sullivan update hope you follow up.
Abusing elderly.
yeah poor elders. Just because they're 60 means they're dump, vulnerable and mindless... NOT the elders I know!
Casino's do target the senior citizens, that is true. I applied for a job when a casino was newly opening in Canada and they said that seniors are their biggest customers.
Alma Belhumeur yah, but im a homosexual??
@@jiggajigjones8210 an UGLY homosexual, unfortunately.
you're right, they should target 20year olds and middle aged people. It's well-know that those people have a ton of free time during the day on weekdays (between 9am and 5pm)... and North American population is getting younger. Also, I suggest we should gas people over 60. They pay no taxes, they're not "productive" and are therefore not entitled to have any entertainment. It's not a scandal if a 45yo gambles his money but a 65yo lady absolutely can't just because she's "old" and therefore a poor/mindless/victim/senile/vulnerable baby.
Ocourse we ate.
I am no longer able to do any physical . the only thing for ud to do is go out to eat and go gambling. There is nothing else i am interested in. I pay every one of my bills when my check comes in. I do not have kids. And my house is paid for. So if i want to take a 100 dollars to the casino and have a little fun who's business is that?
It’s by choice we don’t have to be a gambler, drugs users, smokers etc.. but it’s out there you choose what you want to do with your life and how to live it. Just subbed to this channel to see what people have to say. Thanks and have a good day.
They worked hard their whole life, they will be dead soon, let them enjoy themselves.
SOME SEE IT THAT WAY, I'M GOING TO DIE SOON, LET ME HAVE SOME FUN....BUT MANY WANT TO WIN THE BIG JACK POT AND IT NEVER COMES, BECAUSE THE SLOTS ARE SO FIXED IS IMPOSSIBLE TO WIN..
@Chester Smith
My granny passed away over in the east coast six years and two months ago. She used to be an obsessive gambler and lost lots of money at Atlantic City many times before. She lived to be ninety-four years.
I agree, My In-laws enjoyed playing at Casino.
Don’t want to leave your family anything?
*the JEW has spoken*
Don’t bug us we are fine leave us alone !!!!
The old are bored. What else are they suppose to do??? Maybe government should allow old folks homes to have a little casino in their facility so they can play slots....
Minute Exercise ya a free casino games. That don’t scam or take money away.
Lol they'll still be jumping on the busses to gamble for real $$
Minute Exercise gr8 idea
Gambling is a temporary escape but a costly one
Minute Exercise you’re delusional.
Really nice family you have there abandoning you because you are broke.
I went on the fun bus (senior citizens bus) to the casino. They are at the casino for 6 hours before the bus returns. A lot of older people have nothing else to do so they spend their social security money.
I actually know ken, his situation is a lot more complicated than just being broke. The wife and kids have merit to leave! But ken himself is still one of my favourite people, and i look up to him!
+Aiden Berman Who gamble away everything they own before they stopp thats Extreme addicted.
Leaving is one thing, not speaking to him is something different.
If the kids got sick they would expect their parents to help them.
nice that he spent all the money he owned and now will be taking their children's money too
I go to Casinos all the time. And we have mostly elderly on our plane trips. I see the older ones playing, but never big, they can set in front of a penny machine, etc.. for hours.
Of course if u got addicted to casino u gamble !!!! If you are responsible with principles first! Then have fun! When we are dead no more fun, the old need to have fun ?

We will all be Old one day and be at the Casino Gambling away our Lively Hood!
If the casino doesn't get it the medical bills will.
Every casino I've ever been in is like a geriatric ward, so depressing.
Exactly and its been that way for a long time. I thought they were fun and hopping in Reno in the early 70’s though.
Lighten up people. Seniors have a lot more fun playing, sometimes winning, eating out with their friends and meeting people their own age group at the casino than watching the paint at their apartments.@@slerickson01
@@melbedewy That's not true and I have a good reason to say that. For one thing most people who play there are come alone and also not everyone wins. Even if they win they come back and lose it all. This system was designed to get every penny you have until zero. At one time a young couple who were playing at a casino told me that they have lost over a hundred thousand gambling. They couldn't explain to me why they were still gambling after I asked them what then are you doing playing and gambling more of their money. Most people don't tell others that they are losing. Some does but the majority keep it quite, I think
every mall, movie theater and park on a Tuesday at 2pm is full of youngsters and middle age people... stop being delusional. Aging population... I guess you didn't get the memo yet. It's been sent some mere 20 years ago. It will get to you one day.
Most people are couples or groups of family/friends. MOST of us go with a set amount and stop if we lose. Just like a concert, opera, play, musical, etc. Except unlike that entertainment sometimes we walk away even or better yet ahead. Never did that at a theater.@@dragonlee4065
See the lady at :58 running gracefully to ensure she gets he favorite slot machine. Lol.
I thought the same thing. She said no one is going to hit her jackpot ill be damn
They didn't have acks and pain when they get to the casino with there Walker's whilchares they don't walk they run in .and push you out of the way.
@@marthagonzalez5528 In fact, the brain chemistry changes produced by slot machines and video poker serve as pain reducers.
Here's an idea for a senior. Pace yourself when you get to a casino. Play a little. Get up and walk to get lunch. Play a little more. Get up go to the bathroom. Get back. Play a little more. Get up and go watch the band play a few songs. Never sit in front of one machine for 5 hours straight. It usually will zap you.
don't believe it. you don't live for eighty years and get stupid. they just want to have fun. the senior home dosent want them to do that because in the end they get there money and stuff. grandpa and grandma go spend it all
well put!
As u age all seniors got to have fun with moderation of course; now when they get worst they won’t have fun , of course we all keep eyes on mom dad grands : I brather see my parents happy having fun ; but with moderation they deserve it ; casinos is only fun but to me it can get boring ; is ok to spend if u got extra is ok to enjoy be happy , goodness young adults sons daughters please take care of parents and grands🙆🏻♀️❤️❤️🌹

Seniors on fixed incomes have no compunction to spend hundreds of dollars at the casino, but increase their Medicare premium by a few dollars - and it’s time to bring out the defibrillator. 😲
I can confirm that on weekdays (non-summer period), most of the clientele in casinos are all elderly.
@ jackiechan511 You are so correct, and I hate that I am one of those people, although I am trying to stop taking my money to the Devil's Den
When I was going to casinos some times good some bad but I meet so many people that were awesome. when you win you share with others it's good karma it's good luck. You got to know when to hold them.know when to folde them.
We go to the casino twice a month as a way to get away from "dead people" at our family funeral homes. Went yesterday and I remarked, I've been dodging walkers and wheelchairs all afternoon. I do worry about them not being able to afford being there.
I think gambling at casinos as an activity foisted on elderly and disabled people in independent living facilities is just plain wrong. If this is such a fun and harmless activity, why not take kids in summer camps to casinos on school buses and gamble using their weekly allowance money? When you have a captive audience with limited capacity for being able to get around on their own and reduced mental capacity to think through what they’re doing before they do it, what you’re doing is stealing from them. It’s why children aren’t allowed to gamble. No one would ever suggest that gambling for kids is fine as long as they don’t gamble beyond their financial resources and attend courses on how to curb their gambling activities if those get out of control.
Indeed the casinos are targeting seniors -- the young -- the old. Older people get to still have some fun. The problem is people who spend too much. The person (Ken) is absolutely right -- you get to be with friends, not be sick, etc. If you bet minimum, then you can still have fun. Gambling Addiction is another problem. I am DISABLED .. I can play baseball, badminton, volleyball etc. I can hobble around the casino -- make some money, lose some money (more than I win). They money goes back to the Ontario government. Tou don't live long.
Lottery is just a "hidden tax" on the poor. The odds are clearly stated but people still plunk down a couple bucks just to be in the running. I can't blame or fault anyone who buys lottery tickets or plays the Lotto but obviously they aren't buying with any expectation of "really" winning, but are instead buying Hope. No wealthy people (that I'm aware of) play Lotto or other games with millions to one odds. Sell "Hope" to the poor just to shake a few more bucks out of the poorest taxpayers..
Exactly why I don't play the lottery. I'd rather have hope in something more sensible.
@@lvteachme973 , how about you play the game in order to get money in order to put it into things that will make you far more money so that you can earn enough to take down the Luciferian globalist elite from the inside? When you break the system, you break the cycle of exploitation.
randy95023 yes, 'selling HOPE' to the poor, is big $$$$ to casinos/government!

"It seems fundamentally wrong, morally wrong to take people who you know are lonely, " well instead of just trying to control the seniors choices, perhaps give them something as an alternative... iono....
An elderly member of my family got hooked on to gambling thanks to those brain-sucking slot machines; became so financially unstable and blind due to the addiction, that she desperately sold the family homestead to pay her debts without consulting other family members. This action made my relatives upset and till this day they hold a strong resentment to her for giving away our family's heritage -built & set by our ancestors.
Nobody is willing to take care of her now that she's older, she still gambles and spends her pension asking others for more money, and takes antidepressants to cope with the abandonment of her loved ones..
This makes me very sad because this issue creates a lot of conflict between my family, no one wants the responsibility of dealing with a selfish and narcissistic being like my grandmother. Any advice?
It is people looking for an hope of hitting it big, what people don't see is the lose of their income or losing an amount that should be banking. It is also the local bingo groups that make it easy to lose money with the hopes of making an little bit to keep coming back. It is yes a social group for an lot of people and it is not just over the over 50 or older. It is also younger people looking for a quick cash win fall. If they could not get out there is always online gaming.
I went to the casino 2 weeks ago. I’m 24. The head manager knew most of the elderly players by NAME I was so surprised.
thanks very much...
I bet all the machines get heavily rigged in the casinos on their visits , Obviously in the casinos favour 😡
The other sad fact, when you think about it, is that these poor elderly folk are trying to win money to set their families up. If their families never come around, they sure will once Grandma's hit big. Sad, sad, sad.
True true true
Since government is subsidizing casinos, then the government should give seniors a kind of subsidy for entertainment they can use for anything they want, to keep them from getting into depression due to isolation or abuses from their caregivers or just from being idle all day and I bet there will be a lot less lonely seniors. And happy seniors means healthy mind and body.
Your brain shrinks as you age and your bank account shrinks as you gamble 😆
Your brain is a super computer,all the technology in the world can not imitate it.The more information you put into it the wiser you become.Your brain is constantly learning it is always in learning mode.I am 70 yrs old and I am constantly learning new ideas and more ways to get creative.
@@orlandogarza2965 that's true but it's also true that lots of people don't have control at casinos and don't know when to call it quits 😆
Taking out the ATM MACHINES is too much like RIGHT! 🤑🤑🤑
I think a lot of them just do it out of loneliness and boredom sadly. 😔 but maybe for a little fun too.... Who knows. I don’t think they even really care about winning at the end of the day!
Gracias a los valientes hombres y mujeres en la Agencia de Patrulla Fronteriza. Este tiene que ser un trabajo extremadamente difícil.
? No se trata de ese tema.
The way I see it, it is our money. If we want to gamble so be it. I certainly am not going to give it to the charities to give to themselves instead of helping people. My kids love for us to go.
The care facility management should ensure the rent is paid before they board the casino bus. LOL!
My guess is that seniors have more money to spend than younger people, and probably a smaller percentage has 'gambling addictions.' This report is off base, I think.
Agreed
Perhaps if the Children of these Adult Children with Children, included them more in Activity, there would not be the need for this Costly Crutch of survival and changes in their lives. In some cases perhaps some of them had or have a small nest egg that the rotten Kids did not know about. They are mainly pissed that they are not giving them the money to go to the Casino,, or other types of enjoyment. There are 2 sides to every story,, and somewhere in the Middle is the Truth. I wished I had my Parents back,, they were never out of my life, nor ever were in a NURSING HOME,, Sad Situation right here in this Video. They have done their job of raising their Children,, so just let them enjoy with their friends,,, WHO LISTEN and UNDERSTAND.
Joey Gagliardi yes, "LEAVE THEM ALONE "
Casinos are like Alcohol or Drugs. You don't have to gamble, just like you don't have to drink or do drugs. If grandma likes her wine too much you attempt to intervene in some way. If a friend is into drugs you do the same. If you are gambling away the rent and grocery money you are no better, or worse, than a person who drinks/drugs away the rent and grocery money. Any 12 step program can work for ANY addiction if you are honest and set your mind to it. 1st you have to ADMIT the problem.
Twelve step programs are Antichrist, and ditto for drug rehabilitation centers that make people addicted to drugs so that they can switch from being addicted to one deadly drug to another deadly drug.
They got the money
This is kind of demeaning to the older folks who look forward to going to Vegas . I am a 70 year old lady .
I am getting on a plane in two days and heading for Vegas for a week . I go times a year . I look forward to the travel , I can afford it and it is fun ! I deserve it . Leave me alone .
Sunny Scott "LEAVE HER ALONE!!"
I knew it! Those player cards track players and report how much money each player is betting!! That's why I never get one
They'd be better off even just shopping the money away, at least they would have something to show for it -
That's how I feel. I'd rather shop or travel.
what makes you think that you have a right to say what they should do with their money. I have my good memories with my friends and husband while gambling to show for it.
Businesses can "target" whomever they like. It's up to the individual whether or not it has an effect. We're all "targeted" by businesses all the time.
I feel bad for these old folks. And I think, for some of them who don't get addicted, getting out and doing something normal is a relief, compared to sitting at home, alone, popping medication and watching Hard Copy or whatever.
Amen.
they're also assuming that it's the same people going there week after week. What if someone goes to the casino once a month (that's 12 times in a year) and gambles (and let's assume loses) 250$ each time. How's that scandalous when you just spent 2,700$ on your 7-day all-inclusive trip in Mexico. Were you a victim of the scandalous marketing of the travel/airline/packaged tour industry?

This is incorrect when it comes to addictive products like alcohol, nicotine and other drugs, and gambling. Businesses aren’t allowed to target vulnerable populations in many countries, but we definitely need more regulation. Let’s see how you feel once you get old and could become addicted, seeing your old friends lose everything.
@@gabebarbieri194 When I get old, I would like to think that I'm not completely mental, and still have the ability to make decisions that are in my best interest. That's what I expect from all people. Adults shouldn't need hand-holding, especially by a government through regulatory action. Casinos are popping up everywhere now, but you don't have to go to any of them. Marijuana is legal in more places around the country every year, but you still don't have to puff if you don't want to.
If government make gambling illegal. I wouldn't how many people will start to complain. We all need self control.
Sean Ye government isn’t the solution to all human problems, fool. There is such a thing as a will, dignity and personal responsibility. Stop asking govt to babysit everyone. You may be a low IQ weak victim. Not everyone is.
Not a phone in sight! Just people living the life
No one can blame the government about this casinos we make our own decisions on gambling
No one is forcing us to go gamble.
The temptation is everywhere we decide to make or leave.
Should we also legalize all drugs?
Why is it that when people talk about older people they act like older adults have no brain. Dragging these people to the casino's?? I did not see one person being "dragged" Yes you can get an addiction but very few people do. I don't belong to any old folks home but I do love to gamble and I am 67 years old. I pay my rent and my bills and then I go gambling. I wont save my money for my kids or grandkids. I have kids that love to visit me. Not like the gentleman in this video where his kids don't want to have anything to do with him. I would think those kids were already selfish in the first place. I wonder how many kids would come to him if he happened to get lucky and win millions. I am so sick of people thinking because you are over 50 you no longer can think or yourself.
LONELINESS---DEPRESSION ---DRIVE SENIORS TO THE CASINOS...THE CASINOS ARE FIXED TO SCREWED YOU....THEY PLAY LOUD MUSIC ON PURPOSE---THEY DIM THE LIGHTS ON PURPOSE---THEY BLOCK THE WINDOWS SO YOU CAN'T SEE OUTSIDE...
They worked their whole damn lives. Let them go do whatever they want to do. Half of them were going to give it away to some aloof grandchildren anyway
Tell me who don't exploit someone
Actually, done responsibly, taking advantage of all the "comps" offered by the Casinos, it's difficult to find a more economical avocation. But people who don't care to learn the game and are there for strange emotional reasons, need to get the heck outta there.
This is well-intended, but the images of slot machines are a trigger for those of us who are gambling addicts.
They need to concern themselves with their own money why is it when someone gets old people start treating them like they're their children again
Gambling and poker machines are incredibly evil incredibly unproductive , I have lost enough and I have realise it’s a huge scam it did take one night of going into a casino saying I’ll just spend this $50 I ended up losing $1,000 in that very same night and that was enough for me !! Incredibly evil casinos are destroying the fabric of society when you don’t win it makes you incredibly angry , first you will win then you will lose big time as the bets get higher
Imagine that - doing something that the bible tells you not to doesn't work out for you. :)
"Casinos exploiting seniors?" - This is in the form of a question? LOL
I play poker and, besides us, during the day there are ONLY senior citizens around the property
Go during a Weekday and all you see are Baby Boomers!

Bingo in nursing homes is common, win and you get an apple. Families could step up and care for their loved ones, however this society is so selfish they let the old folks rot in nursing homes. Not only.the lonely old folks are to blame, the selfish children and grandchildren need to get priorities in line.

These seniors do it because A: No family is around and B: They get a huge kick from the flashing lights and funny noises
Clean bathrooms, free tea/coffee, snacks help too.
This was 11 years ago. We millenials remember perfectly well how long boomers have insisted it is our generation which is full of snowflakes and self-made victims. Cry us a river.

I went today and it was senior day holy crap thought I was going to be ran over by walkers
That's true one time I stayed all night after 830 am I saw the first buses arrive the sinors didn't walk they had no pain they ran inside some with Walker's some whelll hair pushing people.
They don't walk in they run in.i saw them at 8.30 am when the first buses arrive
2% for casino cash advances?? lol try 20%!!
Seniors who spend their Time n Money in casinos SHOULD be ashamed of themselves!!
Join Senior Associations n participate in activities such as tai chi exercises; yoga stretching; social dancing; jazz dancing; karaoke singing; buffet lunches n dinners; excursions; overseas tours; fund-raising events; seminar talks; play mahjong, bridge, poker, monopoly, cluedo, scrabble, chess, n MANY MORE social activities AND functions. AND of course, u CAN meet MORE people n make MORE friends!
And if u hv Excess money, donate money to the Association so that greater expansion AND betterment can be carried out.
They keep,them there TOOO long and they know it. A couple of hours and lunch would be good.
This is soo bad. Someone will eventually sue them.
The commercial was just shot a very long time ago that is it.
THEY TARGET EVERYONE ! ! THE SENORS JUST WANT TO HAVE SOMETHING TO DO ! !
