In many cases, tribal members may receive financial benefits from their tribe's casino earnings, but this varies widely among different tribes. Some tribes distribute a portion of their casino revenues to members in the form of per capita payments, while others may invest profits into community services, infrastructure, or social programs instead. The specific arrangements depend on each tribe's governance and financial decisions. Additionally, not all tribes operate casinos, so benefits can differ significantly.
