Senior Citizens Losing Cash

Another bad news story from the real world of pokies (see this link) (http://www.stuff.co.nz/stuff/0,2106,2371044a11,00.html)

That is sad, and they are ones that can afford it the least of all. /webboard/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif /webboard/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif

The problem is that there is no realistic way to police the pokies...and the adrenalin (whatever) rush IS addictive. /webboard/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif

Those Poor Little people.
But then again they do like to have a flutter once a week though

[stu]

It is very sad yet so very common. I know of a lady who spends all her pension each fortnight on that "little flutter?". I wish she had a computer or would buy one so I could introduce her to Pokie Magic games.

[Symo]

Yes that will be good stu. These pokie magic games are a god sent and to be able to show them to her and save her some money that she would normally not have, I reckon that would be almost charitable.

I take my laptop on planes with me now and play Pokie Magic whilst flying. Upside is that i get the odd enquiry about the software. Downside is that it drains the laptop battery in about 20 minutes (verses 2 hours for office type use).
