HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

I have more than this sitting in my wallet.

This must seriously be a joke, right?

I would start to be even slightly concerned until I got to over $10k. At that point, I'd just get $1k chips and solve that problem. You don't need a box until you are thinking of bringing substantially more than $10k.

not all of us are beautiful people born with silver spoons in our mouths. money is relative. his 1k may mean more than your "pocket change." i like ppl's who are arrogant.

If 1k is that important, then maybe one shouldn't spend money to go to Vegas to gamble.

Wait a sec - so a guy is concerned about losing $1500 and you guys are saying that if he is concerned about losing that money, perhaps he shouldn't be gambling?

What kind of logic is that?

Do me a favor - since you guys are not going to miss it and I could really use it, why don't you all send me $1500. I mean, its such an insignificant amount of money - you would be stupid NOT to do this!

PM me for the details.

Thanks!!

i used a money belt when i was in europe to hold my passport/ travelers checks/ large bills.

it made me feel safer then using a wallet, and i also had a wallet with some money in case i did get robbed.

from other posters it sounds like the strip is safe and that having 1500 on you is not a huge amount, but if it makes you feel safer, more secure, then for the $13 or whatever its definetly worth it.

The people who are making fun of this guy for thinking $1500 is a lot of money are silly. Arrogant too. It's all relative -- Bill Gates would laugh at what these people think is a large amount of money as well.

However, posting on 2+2 about whether you need to buy a money belt to carry around $1500 is equally silly. It's not like you're going to have a target on your back if you've got some money on you. It's Vegas, everybody is walking around with money. And regardless, if you think you might need a money belt, just go to the freaking store and buy one for $10 for Christ's sake instead of posting on a message board about it. Seems to me the OP is just trying to brag about his bankroll (which obviously doesn't fly around here), or he's just not too bright.

How come no one has given the correct answer:

Get a safety deposit box at the casino you will be frequenting.

Just put your wallet in your front pocket and keep your chin up. You'll be fine.
