Ah Vegas!! Tinsel and neon! Suckers fly in, see some shows, do a bit of gambling of some sort, hock the Spouses rings and diamonds, gamble a bit more and then fly or hitch a ride home, full of lies about how much they won, and then go back again for a repeat a bit later.
Most of the money brought in has glue..and sticks there. Very little is brought back out. So there is surplus money there, looking for a home. MP and his BOYs are happy to sell them some shares.
