Just so you know...
Ghost Towns don't just happen.
They are the result of the current town occupants NOT keeping an eye on the future.
Now, Nevada has plenty of Ghost Towns. They were built for an immediate need because so many people flocked to these towns for one thing: to mine Gold or Silver.
The problem turned out to be that when the Gold or Silver ran it's course, the towns expired because of ... well, NOT keeping an eye on the future.
So, not foreseeing the future or turning their business eye toward another income stream, the town expired.
This is happening all over the world.
Rhyolite Casino
And, it could happen to us right here in Las Vegas NV!
But I don't think so.
The reason I don't think Las Vegas will fail anytime soon is that this is a city built for tourist!
And, for this city to die, Las Vegas will have to stop changing. That's right.
Las Vegas is continually changing. They adapt. The Casinos still operate, but they always find another way to attract tourist to our beloved city.
Recently, there was a push for more retail. We have more malls here than anywhere in the US -- that I can think of.
Just about every Resort embraces a mall concept which is easily accessible from the casino.
So, if you grow tired of the slot machine taking your money?
Okay! Then, you have the ability to window shop the assorted stores in the resorts mall.
Retail is dying because of the Internet?
Okay! Then, take in a show at a resorts theater -- OR, have dinner at a spectacular resort restaurant.
Sooner or later, you'll have spent your hard earned saved dollars somewhere in or about the resort.
So, all you who live in middle of nowhere America. Are you still waiting for that factory job you lost to automation to come back? (Hint! It isn't returning.)
From what I'm told, Las Vegas has a shortage of workers.
Okay, the job doesn't require you to spend hours on end operating a machine drilling holes in metal; or welding two pieces of metal together. The machines can do that themselves now. But, then again. You need to adapt to see success in the ever changing economic environment.
Have I said Las Vegas enough, yet?
