Thank you kimbao!!!

Ok for once I can agree with you somewhat. Sure I might get bored of the women, lights, restaurants, etc.

I probably will everything gets less exciting after a while. So when I get bored I'll leave. No big deal right? I always have a home to go back to if I get bored of Vegas and I am thankful to God for that.

Now I don't agree with you that I'll end up broke on the street and once again I'm thankful to God for that...BUT I really don't want to discuss finances so I'll just leave it at that.

Wait how would I be messed up physically, mentally, financially, emotionally? You say everyone has a breakin point. Breaking from WHAT?

You say people who have nice homes and nice cars and lots of money STILL leave bc they didn't think it would be what they thought? Are you saying that the pretty women have left Vegas? No more shows, restaurants, strip clubs? I'm not looking for more than that.

Explain that (please). I want completely understand what it is you're saying. These discussions help me out a lot.

Not sure that I said you WOULD be broke, I said (or meant) if...

Anyone who has any bit of common sense and continues on the path you are excitedly going there for, could end up those ways-just spent. Not just financially-the rest I mentioned too. Look at actors or people who begged for fame and then end up a wreck after they "live the life" that you want to. It reeks havoc on you. So, by breaking I mean from the crazy lifestyle you are looking for.

You don't have to leave when that lifestyle bores you, you just have to have the sense to stop it. Live normally. Sure have fun still, but chill a little. That lifestyle is mentally and emotionally empty. Sometimes that is ok for a while, but eventually it will catch up to a "normal" (and I use that term loosely)person and they will need more. Maybe you won't.

And I never asked you to discuss your finances. I personally don't care what they are, that is your business and your responsibility. Besides, what would make you think I would be dumb enough to believe anything you say about your finances anyway. Tough enough believing some of the simpler stuff you say. But that is ok, because maybe someone else will read these posts and it will help them make their decision, right?

What your saying is good but it still doesn't answer the central question. You saying I will be spent from that lifestyle.

Ok, how is classes 5 days a week and strip club, dinner, and a show on the weekend going to get me spent? How is hanging out with a hot girl even though she just wants my money going get me spent(other than buying her clothes or w/e or paying her bills)

I mean I can ball like that and not get spent...how could that get me spent? I'll def. b ballin (hot babes hehe), decent car etc etc but how am I getting spent?

Once again I won't discuss money but one thing is for sure I wouldn't have a car or even be coming to vegas if I was broke or was going to become broke obviously. Luckily I am blessed enough to own a car and have the opportunity to come to vegas even.

i really think everyone should just stop responding to him, I guess, or just start a new official chat thread or just an official lexusman thread or something like that...the Mods obviously seem not to care since there's no way to be off topic in this thread...i mean, you guys can continue to respond to him, i might continue if he says something that actually makes sense, but at the moment he is really making himself look stupid by changing all his stories every other hour...

Exactly! He wants to now become a doctor, but says...if I get bored of Vegas I'll move back home...where does that leave med school? Seriously, I wouldn't be surprised if this kid is 12 years old and just plain bored. It's semi-entertaining at least to respond when there are no questions that need to be answered on the other forums. It's good writing/argument practice

mod cut: attack removed

Kimboa didn't reply...guess he couldn't find a reason why Vegas wouldn't work out (if you did tell me please!). Jono thinks there's only 1 med school in the country LOL!

But on a more serious note my point is this.

Everyone has helped me by telling me how Vegas won't work out or could not work out.

All these suggestions have helped me find solutions.


Best example I can give is you guys telling me that strippers only want me for my paper.

Solution: give them my money and have good time.

Difference: Now I KNOW they couldn't care less about me.

So my point is all the suggestions you have given have really helped me better prepare.

If there are more potential issues or things I should be aware of let me know!!


I want to know every single thing that could potentially be a problem for me in Vegas so I can better prepare.

Thanks to all!

No, what you want us to tell you is every potential problem in "life" so you can better prepare. You've been told a lot of things but you let it go in one ear and out the other and put your own spin on what is left. Just deal with where you are now and do that as best as you possibly can and everything else will fall into place.
