2. Casinos wants to entice the younger generations to increase return as they age. Have Social Media platforms exhibited similar to behavior to increase retention? What is similar and what is different?

3. The author claims that the wealthy night club goers will affect how casinos operate over the next decade. To what extent did night club enthusiasts affect Vegas between 2013 - 2023?

4. The government cracked down heavily upon online gambling in the early stages. Would it have been more beneficial to regulate the industry, instead of trying to destroy it all together?

5. If you could travel to a specific era in Las Vegas's history, which would you pick and why?

6. Do you think continuous technological advancements will eventually make Vegas obsolete?

7. With gambling becoming more mainstream, do you think we will ever see a true competitor to Vegas arise within the United States?
