Video Script

Hi, I’m Randall, and I’m in a casino, and I think there are several things that you should keep in mind when you come to gamble. Number one: Make sure you understand how the games work, so you understand a certain strategy to play, if there is one.

Number two: Make sure you have a budget and stick to it. Uh, sometimes you end up spending more money than you really can afford.

And number three: Leave your credit cards and ATM cards back in your hotel room. That helps you, again, stick to that budget, so you don’t overspend, and spend money that you can’t afford to lose.
