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?
Based on several studies, gambling is a game that processes the mind and parents are required to continue to process their minds in order to prevent dementia and other old age diseases, usually parents who continue to gamble have the support of their children for several reasons such as children are busy working and so that their parents' time is not spent just sitting at home, moreover, parents who gamble are rarely addicted.
