Golden Nugget Casino ATMs Give Golden Geegaws


The casinos in Las Vegas and Atlantic City are doing business with a King Midas touch by offering gold along with cash from their ATM machines. 

The machines in the Golden Nugget casinos offer buyers a 300-item variety of gold bars and coins at their Gold To Go ATMs. The valuable metal objects are priced by the ounce or gram, with electronic tags adjusted every minute to coincide with fluctuating market values.

The machines have been very busy, apparently attracting customers who want to gamble on the ever-changing world gold market, along with trying their luck at the casino slots and table games. For more information, go to goldtogomachines.com
Opinion: Enjoyable Hong Kong International Airport (HKG) PDF Print E-mail


Your travel4seniors.com editor recently spent some time in one of the most enjoyable airports in the world. For savvy senior wanderers, the words enjoyable and airport rarely go together.

Most terminal experiences are filled with frustration, delays, incompetence, bad food, scowling security, unruly mobs, dirty waiting areas and other annoyances. Happily, I found Hong Kong to be totally different. My fave European airport is Amsterdam’s Schipol, but as good as it is compared to US terminals, Hong Kong is one step closer to perfect.

Wandering among  the upscale shops, bright outdoor plazas, welcoming eateries and comfortable resting areas is pleasant. Security check-in is efficiently quick, as well as picking up bags after flights. Management brains at US airports should take some lessons from HKG.
