Does he hold the title to the car? Or is that already gone?

Especially applies to MGM resorts where your M Life card is worthless at the book. I have a gold card, would have a f**king Noir if they would actually recognize sports betting as points.
Instead I get s**t from the guy in the Junior Seau Starter jersey when I ask for more than two Aria drink tickets after laying down an $1100 bet.

Thanks Goose for providing an honest number.
He's gotta leave himself some leeway to close up shop if need be no?
Moving expenses? Plane fare?
He'll tap into the 401k if need be. No way he'd leave before college football season.

Yeah but the CG was betting at more locals places not higher end props ..I just suggested early on to him to sell those drink tix for a few bucks on the tourists for gas $ etc..I've given away as many as I have used at the Gold Coast/Rio over the years..(After they date stamp them nowadays) He could have killed it MarchMadness with kid newbies staying everywhere..But back then he had a serious roll.Also suggested rolling a little bit of cash at the Sportsbook bars VP machines.just to meet the bartenders and other regulars as he was a virgin there..that in itself is free food maybe everyday or other..I've met some guys at the Gold Coast (retired)and they spend thier days there and a buddy of mine in AC LIVES in the casinos and his car on Saturday night once in awhile..Just saying things can be done but grinding tough life..

Maybe, but $1,800 is what I used to bring for a weekend in Vegas, not to live there.
401k withdrawals take time to process. Then checks need to be mailed. Then the address on his 401K account won't match his Vegas address.
All this will be scrutinized and will prevent a withdrawal (especially a hardship withdrawal which is a hell of a lot harder to get than a direct loan that you pay back to yourself).
And if he goes through that $1,800 (which can happen in one bet)...

If somehow he actually ended up with absolutely no cash while waiting for the 401k $, surely goose would float him a couple hundred or whatever it takes to survive til it did come.

There are certain specfic conditions for hardship withdrawls. I am pretty sure gambling is not one of them. It'll take some creative writing to show/prove hardship.

Hence the "whatever". I cashed out a small 401k once and check was cut the following day. Goose can float him 10k if that's what it takes, he claims CG is a college football guru so surely he will want to keep him afloat. Heck if he wants to sign the 401k over to me I'll wire him cash for a fee.

What the CG refers to as a 401K is better known as a Trust Fund in the real world. The likelihood of this d-bag holding a job where he can sock away $50,000.00 in a five year period is slim to none. I am almost positive that CG came on to the covers scene a couple of years ago begging for covers members to fund him since he was down and out. I could be wrong, but I doubt it, I am almost certain it was him. I guess he forgot about that "401K" when he was freaking out about having to tell his parents he was penny-less back then.

We haven't talked on the phone in over three weeks. So I sent an email and asked him if he was OK and if he needed any help. This is what I got back...
GOOOOOSE Big plays on deck I'm rolling when I don't disclose info. Gotta keep it going. We r boys. Appreciate ur support brother. Hollywood CG is alive and well.
As long as CG is talking the talk, I gotta believe he's still walkin the walk. No sign of, not even any tone of, any desperation in that message. We shall see.

I can only assume that if 401k isn't involved:
1) He's dealing weed.
2) He's a low-level runner within the hotels for pimps
There is no way you turn $1,800 into 'alive and well'.
