I think you'll be fine with the weather. It's a "dry" heat.

The biggest issue in moving to Vegas is the gambling. It's a very seductive mistress and most people have to be very, very careful not to piss away their earnings.

I learned my lesson way back in 1995. I moved to LA in 1993 and would often do the drive to Vegas to party and gamble (and this was back when there were $1, $3 and $5 tables, everywhere, unlike now). I'd do well early in the night but the more I drank, the more I lost. I'd lose $400 a weekend, which at that time, was little more than I was earning net taxes per week.

I finally had a decision to make: Gamble or drink. Either or. Not both.

Drinking won.

I rarely, if ever, have gambled in Vegas since then. It's all about friends, drinking, eating, etc. since.

Good luck to you!
