GO FUCK YOURSELF hehe

.

20 years from now, after living in Vegas, you'll understand the wisdom I'm about to gift you:


Live in a trailer ( example ) You'll be surrounded by humble people dedicated to survival & a frugal lifestyle.


Present yourself as a tourist well beneath your means, when anywhere outside your trailer park. DO NOT, EVER, present yourself as a local. Do not


Be honest with hookers/escorts of where you are renting your AirBnB one week trailer rental in Vegas ;) You'll get better rates, he/she will be quicker, but well worth the discount. DO NOT let him/her stay the night. They will be gone in the morning, as will your wallet & phone / alcohol / pills / weed stash

Wear a condom

Don't gamble more then $40 a day

Get to know others in the trailer park, they are your most valuable resource. Take the free shuttles with them to the best deals in town.

Vegas is about the experience outside of where you stay.

Volunteer at local organizations, it will keep you mindful of where you'll be if you don't follow the advice above, especially, living in a trailer.


no joke :2 cents::thumbsup



EMPHASIS: In Vegas, nobody you take home will be impressed with where you live. They will always know someone a little better off with a bit of a better place just a ways away. Save big. Live in a trailer.

.

Squirtit...what are you talking about "DO NOT, EVER, present yourself as a local."

That is insane. This is a pretty normal city except for one tiny section called "the strip".
And everywhere in this town are LOCAL deals. Locals eat and drink 1/2 price at The Rio for instance. Similar stuff like that all over town.

Live in a trailer park? WTF??? lol

Unless you are a tourist paying $17 for a well brand drink and blowing thousands going to the "nightclubs" at the big casinos...living here is as cheap as when I lived in South Carolina.

It's exactly the same as living most everywhere else I've ever lived. The only difference is gambling is legal and the casinos are open 24 hours a day.

You will be hard pressed to find many locals (out of the over 2 MILLION people who live here) who actually go to the strip or EVER go to a Casino at 3 in the morning.

Most people in Vegas work normal 9 to 5 jobs, have kids, etc.

I know in the movies and in books it seems that the strip IS Vegas. But it's not. It's just a tiny, tiny section of a big city (geographically as well as population).

Hmmm dude moves to a new city and gets recommended Del Taco and Church's Fried Chicken

:helpme

If you are single (according to a friend who lives in Vegas) best thing you can do is install Tinder, and fuck all the tourists for recreation. "Endless stream of fresh meat"

:1orglaugh

I am not sure what it is made of, but Del Taco seems to be good quality food, as far as fast foods. Tacos, burritos, and quesadillas that they make, are very good (think crust tacos, regular tacos beef / chicken, thin tortilla tacos, bean burritos - all these are really good).

Church's Chicken is better than Popeye's and KFC, I dont remember any other chains, but it is better than them too, at least from my point of view. You can ask them for hot sauce, every time you get your order, and it goes really good with their food (chicken).

Moisturizer and sun block.

This for sure

Plus, learn to shop at 1-2am for groceries in the summer time
Avoid the strip unless someone is visiting from out of town or you have an itching to do some people watching. There are just as many good restaurants off the strips as on and at sometimes as much as half the price.

Take advantage of locals-only specials for those nights you do want to venture out. Most strip clubs have locals nights where there is no cover for locals. During the slower tourist times, casinos have good deals on room rates for locals.

I'm partial to the Station casinos for a nice place to go out, eat, gamble a little, etc.

I'm a notorious cheapskate, so I price match everywhere that offers it and take advantage of all of the trappings of being a local. If I have the urge to just grab a couple beers and drop $20, I'll hit a local tavern versus a snooty casino hotel bar. Half the price and no tourists to deal with

We also have a growing and vibrant arts scene downtown and a stunning Rocky Horror Picture Show cast ;-)

Like ride around in a cab being called a tramp to see the reaction of the driver or dropping spoons at the Peppermill?

My advice:
- Eat at Roccos on Charleston/Buffalo at least once every two weeks
- Look into the medical marijuana situation there
- Don't go to Buffets unless you are ridiculously stoned
- If you like to gamble, the casinos in Summerlin are your friend. 50 cent roulette ftw!
- Drive safely, Vegas is nuts on driving, just take your time.
- Most pubs have gambling meaning they are open 24/7, great for late night eats.

I actually looks at trailers, some where free lol. But the park fees where at least $350 most around $600. I have a nice apartment for $800 so I think that's a better deal. Probably grab some property next year and build a palace on it. Why not for these prices. $400k here gets you a million dollar home in LA.

I had the best apartment ever in Vegas. I got a great deal on a one bedroom with a den, which was perfect for me since I was single and working from home there. The place was super nice, laid out well, in a decent part of town - $780/month. Granted that was 12 years ago, Vegas has some nice places to live at a decent price.

I'm not sure how it is with trailers, but mobile homes have to pay car insurance too since they can technically be moved. It's really odd.

I would not build a house there, unless I would have "too much money", and I would buy something instead. Vegas has been one of the fastest growing cities in the World, and there is a lot of very nice and new houses on the West (and South) part of the town. All these houses are different, they did not make them all the same, or anything like that. You have a lot of "bells and whistles", things like roof terraces, and other things. Anything you may want, is already there. I would prefer to live in a nice area, around nice people, instead of having a big piece of land somewhere in North Las Vegas, which has a "different feel".

I would say that real estate over there is one of the best, if not the best in the World, also as compared to other places in the United States (kind of, I am sure you would find a lot of good apartments / houses in the other parts too, as it is a very rich country).

Not that I would want to live there, but this is a three story apartment / penthouse with an elevator in Sky on the Strip.

I would take a rooftop terrace or a 3 story penthouse any day.

Having a dog is a pain though in a tall building plus living on the strip would be just too tempting I think. A 3 story house with a terrace sound awesome!

^^^^^^^^^^^^^ THIS! :thumbsup:thumbsup

I've already added a screenshot from there, but this part is very nice as a whole:

North West

Especially the left side of the 95 Freeway.

So land lots in LV are 600K more expensive? Because not sure if there are huge price differences in materials and labor between those 2. When talking about building a house.
Or more likely you are comparing different neighborhoods...

I am kind of getting in too many details here, but I used to live there for over seven years, and this is a good question for me.

One thing that I forgot to mention is Sam's Club. You definitely want to sign up and shop there. There is a good Smart & Final close to Decatur and Charleston, I would recommend checking it out too. I've seen another one that was very bad, and these are the only two that I've seen. In the good one they had a lot of good products, like frozen chicken wings, and other things that one person was buying, and selling in his restaurant.

Sam's Club + (Costco) + (Smart & Final) + Food 4 Less + 99 Cent store (or / and Dollar Tree) is where you want to shop, I would say. Sam's Club is very good, and the prices are low too.

You can get a whole roasted chicken (warmed up and ready to eat) for as low as $2.00 (they lower the prices at the end of the day, if food does not sale) in Walmart Neighborhood Market. This one is generally more expensive, so I would not shop there, but chicken is very good.

You can check out H&H Hawaiian BBQ, for a change too. This one is not as good as the other places that I've mentioned so far, from my point of view.

Property is about 50k for a nice area. That's 350k to build a palace.

Or just buy one, everything is new and pretty modern in the design. Looking forward to house shopping next year. It's hard to get a view here though, everything is flat.

I banned walmart and sam club which is the same company years ago.

But thanks for the tip! I use Costco, they treat their employees way better and still have awesome prices and good products.

I've been watching the market there and it's pretty decent time right now with a big inventory, esp with foreclosures. You can buy a decent sized 1 bedroom condo/apartment (not in the hood either) for less then the cost of a car. Example would be in Summerlin / West Vegas at around 40k-50k. HOA fees run about 150-200/mo.

So if you needed or wanted to mortgage a 1 bedroom it would cost you about est $250+$200 HOA.

$500 a month for a condo built in the mid 90s

:2 cents:

Who's fucking forum bot is this?

God damned Sam's club and fucking 99 cent store? Are you fucking kidding me with this bullshit? You can get that shit anywhere!

Lol, read all his posts in this thread, I think he's namedropped at least 40 restaurants and stores. This was his best line of the thread, "I am not sure what it is made of, but Del Taco seems to be good quality food."

Looks like fatfoo is back and has landed new sponsorship deals.

dont go to casino. dont be addicted.

If you don't do the strip then aren't you just living in a desert city with all the same chains as any town in the US? Like what's the point?

I think that brother may have forgotten to mention this place:

7-11, it's a very convenient store where you can get soda and also fill up your gas tank. They also have candy and sandwiches

lol

Money may not be a factor in 100% of situations, but as far as I was saying / recommending 7/11 is 160 - 180 / 200% more expensive than Sam's Club / Food 4 Less / 99 Cents. Whole Foods Market is good too, I am not saying... I was recommending these places because they are good + cheap.

How much is the hot sauce and where do you recommend placing it on the chicken?

Johnny, I think people are amused because you aren't recommending anything that is exclusive to Las Vegas.

You could be talking about a tiny town in Alabama and saying the same thing.

We ALL are aware of chain stores, fast food, etc.

The OP was looking for tips that are exclusive to Vegas. :)

...and they have slot machines. :)

This fucker said "Whole Foods" and "cheap" in the same paragraph. :1orglaugh:1orglaugh

There isnt a damn thing cheap about Whole Foods.

I prefer L&L Hawaiian BBQ, actually. Of course, it's right down the street from me! :thumbsup:thumbsup :winkwink:

Vegas is cool.

Thanks for that brilliant observation, Captain Obvious.

Come visit then!

If you don't gamble, this place is awesome. Fight the urge and enjoy all the cheap awesome stuff everywhere.

Stay out of casinos :) lol

What Kira said...

... or move.

lol my place is pretty quite, maybe I got lucky. So far it's been pretty chill, I just treat the strip like a vacation and only do one night at a time.

Already lost some cash though, that hurts lol. I suppose it's a initiation here. Probably take off when it gets too hot.
