Seriously...If you think Las Vegas is the best place in the world, then come try it out and see for yourself.

Honestly...Just read up on the current facts first about Las Vegas before you start flying by the seat of your pants, yeah? Dont make the mistake of the Vegas glamour image being the absolute motivator for you, because the plastic tends to fade after you've settled, much like everywhere else...

If you really want to come to Vegas, I would recommend getting a student visa and coming here as a student first. Getting a student visa is easier than getting a work permit, I believe, and it will buy you a few years for the economy to get better.

Our local university is UNLV.

Most joints will not consider you for employment UNTIL you have an ACTUAL work visa in hand.

You can not get a work visa if you don't have a company who can sponsor you.

Nowdays, it's is very difficult to find a sponsor.

agreed.....and for good reason.....the point being, unless you have come and worked and thus have your work visa, MOST if not all places are not interested.
