Here's another little tip from your Uncle Johnny. The average visitor to Las Vegas loses about $175 per trip. Let's do the math. Official data states that about 39,000,000 (39 million) visitors go to LV each year. Of these, about 87% gamble. That's about 34,000,000 (34 million) people who gamble per year. These gamblers collectively lose about $6,000,000,000 ($6 billion) per year. These numbers are taken from 2010. Dividing the losses by the number of gamblers, this means that each gambler loses about $175 per trip to Vegas on average. I think the Vegas data states that the average gambler brings about $580 for gambling, so each gambler would lose about one-third of that sum on the average trip. Of course, many people win money and many more lose, with some losing everything they brought and more. But you can find the latest data and do the math yourself for any period of time, and then you'll know how much to bring and how much to expect to lose -- if you have a truly "average" experience.

How would you resolve gambling in the Philippines?

"Resolve"? Gambling is not a problem to be resolved. It's a valid and legitimate activity. What makes gambling in the Philippines contentious is that the revenues derived from the activity goes to a presidential slush fund. That's simply wrong. All revenues from gambling should be spent on education and health ONLY. And, while on the subject of education, children should be taught why casinos never lose. They should be taught the formulas that way we can wean them off gambling within one or two generations. Gambling will then mainly be done by tourists (like Las Vegas, Singapore and Macau).

What is the ruling on taking part in competitions held on the internet?

There is nothing wrong with taking part in competitions held on the internet or elsewhere, if the entrants will not lose anything and they will either be safe and sound or will win something, because that does not involve gambling. Gambling means that the person does not know whether he will gain something or lose something. But this is subject to the condition that the competitions are not contaminated , such as questions about permissive things or songs, or other things that are forbidden in and of themselves. Then they would be forbidden for this reason, not because they involve gambling.
