entertainment
 
If you were to either pick going to nightclubs or going to casinos, which of these two usually cost you more money?


Both of these activities i do for fun and its costing me a fortune. whatelse is there to do for fun in vancouver?

The way I see it. At nightclubs, you spend enough to get drunk (unless you're blowing all your $$$ buying for others) and then you stop. At a casino, you can just keep on going.

There are a number of things to do other than clubbing and gambling. Be more active and get some boarding done before the season's over!

Its a toss up for me. I'd say I spend more on clubbing because I rarely leave the casino losing $200 or more.

Yeah, but these huge casino's weren't built because people win most of the time.

Grandmaster TSE 01-14-2009 12:56 PM

it all depends
with a nightclub, you probably won't spend as much, but for sure it'll be an expense
with a casino, you probably spend a lot more, but you have the chance (or skills) to win

crazyturtle 01-14-2009 01:06 PM

well it depends, if you're addicted to gambling, then probably casino will cost more, unless you win a lot..

hotjoint 01-14-2009 01:33 PM

I'd say casino because everyone I know who "wins" at the casino isnt really a winner in the end because they lost money first and then "won" some of it back so they either lost money or broke even in the end.

vicvic 01-14-2009 03:28 PM

I think Casino cost more..

no, but whens the last time you won money at a club?

Berzerker 01-14-2009 03:52 PM

I don't gamble. Ever. Something about throwing money away just doesn't quite jive with me.

My GF and I don't drink so when I do go to a club I pay cover and then maybe a couple of Redbulls and thats it for that. I would rather go for a hike or so something active then waste time and money gambling or clubbing. There are plenty of social things you can do to entertain yourself if your even moderately active.

Berz out.

Well, obviously - if you're leaving the casino with LESS money, you should STOP going!

Club - at least you get something out of it. Pregame and it will cost less.

Also, the casino is fun - but I'd stop after I've paid "for the night's fun". Which is maybe $40. If you lose $40, you can say "yeah but I had fun.. spent $40 for the night".

Unfortunately, everything costs money - play pool, go to the movies, find a lounge and relax, etc..

red_2 01-15-2009 12:03 AM

i would have to say nightclubs, i spend more there than at casinos cuz i know i have terrible luck =/

maxxxboost 01-15-2009 12:57 AM

Casino would generally cost more?

Depending on your addiction wheater it is alcoholism or gambling.
If you go to the club to dance(pay cover) it won't cost you much, it is when you drink that kills.

Clubs, chill out with a couple girls and drink and have a sexy time

I'm pretty much like you, I went to the casino a few times to see what the hype was all about but I only played slots and lost $20 each time. I left feeling like shit. I don't know how people can drop thousands like its nothing.

I don't drink at clubs, its such a jack. I just pay cover and chill. And yeah there's so many other things you could spend your money to have fun, casinos and clubs are on the bottom of my list :thumbsup:
