Elderly People Predict How Well They’ll Do at the Casino. They’re Wrong

Casinos are effectively babysitting halls for the elderly, allowing them to waste away your inheritance one quarter at a time. I get it — being old can be pretty boring, and if your grandchildren don’t call you, or if Ethel cancels Bridge night, what else are you supposed to do besides blow your entire Social Security check on Black?

This senior living home took some of its residents to the casino, filming just how much they hoped to earn while there. Some people had more modest expectations, such as being able to buy dinner for everybody, while others promised that they’d be driving out of the casino in a brand new car.

Yeah, they pretty much all lost.
