As a European: how do you spend tens of thousands here on vacation?

We do have casinos. And parking in Amsterdam.

Are you saying parking is gambling in Amsterdam?

Edit: in some cities in North America, a parking spot makes double to triple the amount compared to a minimum wage worker.

Are you saying parking is gambling in Amsterdam?

No, but our family of four went on a visit to the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, and the by far most expensive part of the trip were neither the museum tickets nor the restaurant bill, but the parking: about €16 per hour.

Should have taken public transit!
