I'm writing this thread because the last time that I went to a land base casinos, I have seen a lot of senior citizens and older people who are still playing. But the thing is that some of them really are in the wheelchair and with someone with them helping to push the button in let's say slot machine games.
What do you think could be the reasons that they are still gambling though?
It could be that they want to still engage themselves and be as active as they can and they can do it through gambling? Or somewhat of a mind exercise for them?
What I notice also is that most of this seniors could really be rich as they have a lot of people behind them, some could be their grand kids or some could be their maids. Or it could be better if they will just go and stay at home as they could be vulnerable in such places?
We must not forget that gambling is a source of entertainment. And entertainment is a basic human need. So it may be that the people you see, even those in wheelchairs, are gambling, perhaps they are getting that entertainment or excitement from it that keeps their minds sharp as they get older as from their boringness.
Anyway, if they can afford to gamble at that age, I mean both financially and mentally, then I don't think there's anything wrong with that, they're just getting entertainment from it, and there's no need for us to interfere with these matter.
