For gambling industry, I don’t know about which stocks to recommend, but, as long as we’re talking about the legal ones, gambling companies will have a perfectly good future. The desire of people to gamble is very high, including in stocks. Day trading comes very close to gambling. People like to gamble. If there’s a football game, especially if it’s boring, you’ll enjoy it more if you bet a few bucks. The human propensity to gamble is huge.

對于博彩行業(yè)，我沒有什么推薦的股票，但是如果單指那些合法的博彩公司的話，我覺得它們還是有很好的發(fā)展前景的。人們想去賭博的渴望很高，包括股票這個領域。日內交易跟賭博很相似。人們喜歡賭博，如果現(xiàn)在有一場球賽，尤其是那種很無聊的球賽，你要是投了一點賭注肯定會看得更盡興。人們傾向賭博的心是很強的。

When it was only legal in Nevada, you had to travel or break laws to gamble, but now states are legalizing it. The easier it is, the more people who will gamble.

以前只有內華達州賭博合法，所以人們要違法去到很遠的地方賭博，但是現(xiàn)在政府已經把賭博合法化了。賭博越容易，人們就越愿意去賭。

People will always want to gamble. I’m not a prude about it, but to quite an extent, gambling is a tax on ignorance. You just put it in and guys like me don’t pay the taxes – it relieves taxes on those who don’t gamble. I find it socially revolting when a government preys on its citizens rather than serving them.

人們總是愿意去賭博的。我不是說賭博不好，但是賭博從很大程度上來說就是對無知之人征收稅務的一種行為。你把賭博的盒子放在那兒，很多像我一樣的人不會去“交稅”——對于不賭博的人來說這減輕了稅務。我覺得政府讓公民犧牲在賭博上，而不是去為公民服務這個行為讓人反感。
