6. Staying at an expensive resort hotel/casino may sound all ritzy and fun, but they are outrageously priced, a waste of money, and only good for maybe a 'one time' stay before one realizes it's all fake glitz and glamor and money out the window (I once paid $329 for a premier suite at the Luxor and for what I paid I could stay an entire week at Travelodge and have just as much fun).
