[quote=Anonymous]Read Addiction By Design. The slot machines are designed to addict the player and get them to play until they run out of money. Does your MIL withdraw a set amount of cash to gamble before she goes on the trip or does she replenish her stash at the casino ATM or borrow from the casino when she runs out? How much is she losing each time? Former mayor of San Diego, Maureen O'Connor gambled away her inheritance from her late husband (Jack in the Box founder) and embezzled 2 mil from his nonprofit foundation to the tune of $13mil playing slot machines to deal with her grief and loneliness. Casinos preyed upon her by doing everything they could to get her there and keep her gambling. She is destitute and living with her twin sister. Your MIL needs oversight now, probably by DH. [/quote]
