What's Up STACKERS!
For the past couple of years, The Steemit Platform has connected hundreds of thousands of people across the world... and it's been a delight to getting to know many of you.
As some of you guys already know, I currently live in Las Vegas, Nevada for over 16+ years. Yeah, the place where people call Β "Sin City" with the Slogan... "What happens in Vegas, Stays in Vegas" π€£
There's a lot of misconception about Las Vegas. So many people think it's just a place of debauchery which is not even the case. Yeah, Vegas was built with that philosophy but over the last couple of decades, it's not what it seems to be. π€·πΌββοΈ
To me, Las Vegas is one of the best places to live in the United States but without all the negatives people talk about.Β
There are so may benefits living here, you may say to yourself "WTH.. are you serious?"Β Yes, most people only see Las Vegas Strip which is only 2 miles long containing just entertainment but outside of that, it's freaking awesome.
Here are some of the great things about Las Vegas:
- No State Taxes
- Cheap Housing (My Mansion is cheap lol)
- Great Weather, It hardly ever rains here... the sun be blazin' βοΈ
- Best Entertainment and Food you can buy, 5 Star Kinda Action!
- The Best Conventions for Entrepreneurs
- Great Airport Hub for easy travel anywhere
- Family Members visit often π€£
- Traffic is non-existent to most cities
- Lake Mead and Mt. Charleston (Summer and Winter Fun)Β
- Tons of Billion Dollar Resorts
- So many other things, let your imagination run wild
Vegas was built on money and guess what that does? It brings innovation and growth to the city. What do they say? Always follow the money and you will live a better life. π¬
Will I live here the rest of my life? It will probably be my main "HUB" for a long time. However, I heard people are building crypto "Cities/Locations" across the road. I'll probably change my thinking decades down the road but in the meantime, this is the spot.Β
So the question is, where are you guys from?Β
I'm looking forward to your comments! Also be sure to get engage with people who replies on this post, you never know who you can get to know better on here. ππΌββοΈ
Have an Awesome Sunday, Keep On STACKIN! π
For those who's interested in following my "Content" and "Daily" Posts... you can just follow me @stackin to get my updates.
I am in South Florida. Good weather. Like it.
Next place I could live but the weather is crazy there, Reading, PA.
Keep on #steemin'
I love living in Vegas, it has a little bit of everything, it is like living in a small town disguised as a big city.
People just donβt know vegas, they just see the strip ππ
Yes definitely, it is very rare that I go to the strip, especially since my kids were born
Good ol' Duluth MN right now.
Hoping to move to the Minneapolis area once I can get enough passive income coming in!
Holy Shit, I'm from Duluth!
Im a steemit Match maker lol
Lmao! My fiance is also on steemit
Lol I said I USED to live there, but had the good sense to run for my life :-) It is just such a small city it was surprising to see someone else from there.
I am from Belgrade, capital of Serbia...It is a beautiful city and it's about 2 Million people if you include the all the small cities around it.
We have a great Ada lake, where over 1 million people come to swimming, sunbathing and other summer attractions
Ada Ciganlija is one of the most visited places in Belgrade, and for a good reason. You can go swimming, biking, rollerblading or just enjoy a walk by the lake. The place is full of bars and restaurants and most of them work all year long. During the summer it can get crowded with a seaside atmosphere.
100% accurate!!! I just purchased a home in Las Vegas as well! Although I have only been living here for 6 years. The one thing that I would add that is a huge huge plus is it's a 24/7 town! I'm from Milwaukee where everything closes early, it's incredibly annoying once you get used to a 24/7 town! I get all my groceries late at night when there is hardly another person in the store, it saves so much time not having to wait in lines!
Great to meet another local Steemian! So right, it's a 24 hour town. Nothing ever closes :)
Iβm from Morocco π²π¦
Heard there's lots of money there lol
π
Wales, UK in da house!
Mad respect @louisthomas! Love your vids man, been following you on YouTube vids for a while, I miss those nature vids since you moved lol
Hi @louisthomas, another UK in da house, But I live in England. In East Sussex on the coast. Nice to meet you. (Hopefully you know @pennsif already right?, he is doing awesome things for Wales (and everywhere else for that matter) on Steemit).
I am from Bangladesh.
@stackin LAS VEGAS is a resort city in Nevadaβs Mojave Desert close to the borders of California and Arizona.
i love this city...
Vegas spawned out of the sand, from nothing but a desire to create something great. There is no other city in the world like it. It is beyond over-the-top.
Thanks Bugsy! He had a vision.
Iβm currently living in Florida. An hour north of Miami. We also live in a state free tax state. Iβm 15 minuets from the beach. I am waiting for long over due visit from you mister!
I may visit in the summer time. My spots are ocean drive but most of the rooms there are shit but itβs lovley lol
CAnnot wait!
I live here in Las Vegas too. I am a local stand-up comedian, I work on and off the Strip. Iβd love to meetup some time. I tell everyone about Steemit and Steem, Dtube, all of it all the time. Iβm learning still but I am about to go full time on Steemit and just have my Steemit posts zapped via zapier to Facebook and all that, I am tired of their censorship and them making money from my and our content. Steemit is for the Users, and Iβm all about that!
Thatβs awesome! There are a few STEEMIANS here in Las Vegas! Hit me up on facebook πͺπΌππΌπ―
The Big Lebowski!
I am from Bangladesh. @stackin

Lots of people don't know that I'm half German (FUCHS) LOL ... Never been to Germany, might have to put that on my bucket list π

I'm from the Netherlands and Vegas is on my bucket list, When I get there we should have a vodka π
Alrighty, only ciroc vodka tho π€£π₯

New York City ;) ainβt ever sleeping in this city
I always thought you lived in Europe, not sure why I thought that lol
Howβs the traffic there π jk

Broome, Australia, has one of the top 10 beaches in th world...cable beach...population 15000, nearest city 1500 miles away
I heard it awesome there! Isnβt the minimum wage like $18 and you guys get paid holidays lol... I have no idea, I left the βsystemβ 20 years ago π
Beautiful things I love in a city Las Vegas:
I am from Morocco .
it is a beautiful country is a beautiful country for tourism but most people prefer to go abroad
Thatβs what I heard also! Thatβs a place on my bucket list! π
I live in a small town called Faridpur.It is bounded by the Padma River to its northeast. My house is not far from Padma river. Its a very beautiful place. Its really a quite place. People here are really nice .

Looks peaceful, a different vibe than Las Vegas but I dig it π
Thanks Man.
I am from the little country of Europe, it's call Moldova, it's a great country with great people!
All places are good to occupy, it all depends on how we enjoy it. I come from Indonesia and Indonesia is heaven to me with its natural beauty.
Thank you for providing information about las Vegas. hopefully one day I can vacation there.

I live in Seattle but I love Vegas!
love the silver gig. Iβm a big supporter and believer of silver and itβs potential with the coming markets. Right on.
@trezmala If you like Silver you should see my latest VLOG......The Lady of The Bunker Pours Big Bars.........
I use to live in Olympia many years ago, I remember when I was young and Mt Saint Helens erupted π³... Great city but just donβt like the clouds lol
I am from Bangladesh.Today i came to know about a completely new vegas, i used to know vegas as a sin city where all kinds of adult things happens.But after your statement about the facilities it seems to me its a pretty cool place to live.Thank's for the post.@upvoted andresteemed.
It changed a lot, people visit Las Vegas now for the shopping, food, and the resorts now instead of the drinkin and partying lol
Hi @stackin, I have to admit that Las Vegas is only place in USA that I'd really like to visit when I have more money than sense. Also would love to have a helicopter ride over the Grand Canyon. On my bucket list.
I live in a small town on the coast on England, in East Sussex, UK, where life stops after 7pm!
I'm in Central California staying safe cause Forbes tells me I'm in a city that is one of the 10 most dangerous U.S. cities.
Vegas has one of the most dangerous streets in the USA, I think itβs the top 10, I drive by it all the time, it looks peaceful lol
I'm living in Germany, very close to the border of the BLACK FOREST. A very quiet area.
Best regards to Las Vegas.
Meditation time π
This is a wise post! I'm sure, people think about cities like so many other things on patterns. For example: Las Vegas is a city of sins, bears walk around Moscow and so on. And only a person, who lives in this city, can correctly and truthfully characterize it
Such facts, most people only see the two miles of the Las Vegas strip, itβs amazing though lol
5 stars strippers? LOL. Kidding bro.
6 Stars haha
I hail from Malaysia, specifically, Borneo. Its sun, sea and great food all year round!
Vegas is a hub for sure! I'm on the East coast... cold and damp over here!
I'm from Duluth, MN originally, Lived in MPLS for awhile.... moved to Cocoa FL for about 6 years and now I'm in Texas! whoo hoo
Wow.. So Vegas is this awesome! I hope to visit there..
I'm from Nigeria, i currently live in Kaduna State but i will be leaving by April.
Yeah, its a place people need to visit at least once π
I'm from Montreal, Canada. One of my art patrons lives in Henderson, NV. I'm going to visit him in April. He's a carver/sculptor himself and knows a lot about mold making. Part of the reason I'm going to see him is to see about making molds to do some poured silver (maybe gold?) Mandalas. All you gold & silver folks on here have given me some cool ideas of how I could apply my art to precious metals, stoked to see how it develops!
Henderson is Nice! Just a few miles from the strip. Nevada is called the Silver State for a reason lol
I am from Galati, Romania! Now my question to you is: what do you know about Romania? without searching google: P
Hardly nothing, just heard they have great food there lol
Indeed the food is very good and many beautiful women! lol
I also think you've heard about Dracula: P
i'm getting ready to move to Henderson NV
Great location, they have an awesome resort there called Green Valley Ranch! Maybe a future Steemit meetup location? π
I currently live in Ibadan, Oyo state Nigeria, largest city in west Africa. , the pace setters state , almost every major establishment in the country started in the city ,
Cheap housing
Very great weather
Low traffic, well compared to Lagos
Tons of million dollar resorts
A very fun place to be with , peaceful too!!!
Yay!!! I am Nigerian too, but i stay in Ondo, Ibadan is fun to be in minus the dirt πππ. Keep steeming brother!!
I am Nigerian, presently in Ondo State. Vegas has always been on my bucket list. I hope i still get to "sin" a little in vegas because whatever happen in vegas stays in vegas πππ.
When ever you make it here... hit me up, the drinks are on me lol
Love Vegas. One of my favorite cities in America for sure. And very accessible for anyone trying to get there. And so much going on there every single day. Love what you said about it being a great place to do business....So many conventions and meetings....
I'm in the complete opposite of hot desert heat. Currently freezing my rear end off in Edmonton Canada but originally from Toronto.
Which I'm very biased towards :)
Canada - great place to live in the summer. Can't stand it in winter.
I use to live in Alaska and Colorado... Just canβt stand it anymore, the snow that is haha
I am from Algeria but I live in Russia, in the town called Rostov on Don and we will have FIFA 2018 here because Rostov Arena stadium is really and it can hold more than 45000 watchers. βΊ
I am your neighbor Charles @stackin, Scottsdale, Arizona very much like Vegas but we have State Taxes.....
Yeah, my brother use to live in Gilbert Arizona. Itβs no Vegas tho lol
is he a Mormon ???
Never went to USA, it's on my list of places to go, and Las Vegas is one of them, Sin City... i got plenty of sins to commit there :P
I'm from Portugal, even though i love my country and more or less love my fellow countryman i hate my government, our government are ruining Portugal one year at a time, but i guess this is happening all over the world...
When you change to one of those CryptoCities do tell, we can be neighbours! The first round of drinks is on me!...all the others are yours xD
Just a small city in Central Wisconsin. Pick a direction to go and soon there are Farms, Forests, Fields.
I live in the North Caucasus city of Nalchik. This is a very beautiful though not as big as LV city, it is very green! More than 10,000 rose bushes blooming every year there are different colors and varieties. There are many sanatoriums, rest homes and hospitals, and not far from our handsome ELBRUS!
ATL in the house here!...I think we theres probably more action in Vegas but its much prettier here all the green trees and wildlife...moved from so cal I got tired of the desert! haha
I am in the Sunshine State @stackin.
East coast about an hour from Orlando.
We get a lot of sun here but when the wind starts to blow, man does it blow. Brings a lot of water with it...some from the sky, some from the sea.
Near Cocoa? That is where I lived :-)
Down the road a bit...work in Melb...live in IHB.
Cool not far from where I was. I'm in TX now and really missing the FL weather. I think Key West was my favorite city!
Yeah las Vegas is cool, but I live in Los Angeles California which is a great place to live in and it's also fun...
Vegas would have to be the most Libertarian place in the whole US. A few things there that are legal but nowhere else. Personal freedom!
Las Vegas,,, I just head about it and see it in pictures and videos..
I always have this idea that Las Vegas is only for wealthy tourists around the word.
I live in a small city called Azilal, in the very middle of Morocco and wishing to be in Las Vegas someday soon.
I live in the Pacific Northwest :)
Ha I always knew there was more to Vegas than just the strip. I'll have to visit there one day. I'm from Orlando Florida and people think it's all Disney. It's pretty centrally located so you can day trip to quite a few places.
It ain't just all about the mouse lol
