Role reversal
Bill’s Budget Tips:
- Pizza is your friend
- Do your gambling downtown or at Treasure Island
- Go to ABC or CVS. Do not go where you limo or cab driver wants to take you.
- Go during the middle of the week
- Buy access to the VIP lounge. The net cost is less than you think.
John’s Luxury List:
Get a pool cabana – it’s worth every penny
Try a pre-fixe French menu at least once in your life
Order at least one high-end spirit or cocktail per day
Pay for the room with a view
Buy access to the VIP lounge
