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?

Maybe as an old person, that's the way they could be entertained? I mean there's no other thing to do and they find gambling as a fun thing to do while being old. As you can see, you can't find fun and excitement in other activities that you'll just sit around and no major physical activities, only gambling right?

Even in just simple slots machine, they can feel active and alive while playing, that's what senior citizen needs. Or maybe they're the ones who grow up gambling and does have a lot of money and gambling is their way of wasting money.
