GARY GREEN GAMING SECURES STRATEGIC CASINO PROPERTY AT THE WORLD'S MOST CRITICAL LITHIUM SITE
LAS VEGAS, NV, UNITED STATES, April 9, 2025 / EINPresswire.com / -- Gary Green Gaming™, a name long associated with transformational plays in the gaming and hospitality sector, has entered into a binding agreement to acquire the only casino adjacent to the Thacker Pass lithium mine—widely recognized as the most vital lithium deposit on the planet.
This move strategically positions Gary Green Gaming at the epicenter of a $3.5+ billion energy infrastructure boom, catalyzed by Lithium Americas' $2.93 billion investment and General Motors' $650 million commitment. Thacker Pass is projected to supply up to 25% of the world's lithium demand, fueling the electric vehicle and clean energy markets for decades to come.
'This is not just a casino acquisition—it's a stake in the next great American boomtown,' said Gary Green, Founder of Gary Green Gaming. 'We're embedding ourselves into the foundational geography of the global energy transition.'
The Project: 'Electric Wild West' Meets Strategic Asset Play
Gary Green Gaming will redevelop and expand the legacy 'Say When Casino' into a comprehensive entertainment and hospitality hub designed to serve the thousands of miners, engineers, executives, and contractors converging on Thacker Pass.
Development plans include:
• Expansion and redesign of the existing roadhouse-style casino into a modern-day glitter place
• A 24-hour restaurant designed for shift-workers, travelers, and locals
• A boutique hotel for business and leisure guests as well as temporary housing for miners
• A major entertainment complex and broadcast-recording center, poised to become the media hub for lithium-related coverage as well as a showcase for national music acts.
• A shopping district targeting the needs of thousands of incoming workers and support staff while enhancing availability to the existing population
'In all our years of development, this represents the most compelling convergence of market timing, location exclusivity, and scalable demand we've ever seen,' Green added. 'That's why we're buying it directly.'
First Mover Advantage in an Untapped Market
As the only entertainment, casino and hospitality complex within close proximity to this historic mining initiative, Gary Green Gaming commands complete market share for entertainment, lodging, and dining in the region—a built-in monopoly amid exponential population and capital inflow.
'We see this not as a gamble, but a guaranteed play. Lithium is the new oil, and we're building the infrastructure for its human side—the place where business gets done, where workers unwind, and where the culture of this new economy gets defined,' said Green.

Trump Says Musk Wants to Talk After Explosive Public Feud
President Donald Trump said Elon Musk is "the man who has lost his mind," brushing off their high-profile fallout despite headlines suggesting the two may soon speak, per ABC News Chief Washington Correspondent Jonathan Karl . "Not particularly," Trump said about whether he was interested in a call, claiming Musk was keen to speak. 08:28 AM EDT Russia offers political asylum to Elon Musk over Trump feud Elon Musk looks on during a news conference with US President Donald Trump in the Oval Office of the White House in Washington, DC, on May 30, 2025.

ALLISON ROBBERT/AFP via Getty Images A Russian official said the American billionaire Elon Musk could be offered political asylum in Russia over his fierce dispute with U.S. President Donald Trump. Dmitry Novikov, first deputy chairman of the State Duma Committee on International Affairs, commented to Russian state news outlet TASS. "I think that Musk has a completely different game, [so] he will not need any political asylum, although if he did, Russia, of course, could provide it," Novikov said, in remarks translated from Russian. Musk and Trump, ostensibly political allies over cuts to federal spending, publicly clashed on June 5 in a series of social media exchanges and comments to reporters. The dispute's origin is the impact of Trump's One Big Beautiful Bill on U.S. public debt. Read the full story by Jordan King and Shane Croucher on Newsweek.

If Elon Musk's Wealth Was Evenly Distributed Across America, How Much Money Would Every Person Get?
We've seen the headlines that reveal how rich the world's top billionaires are — but it's hard to comprehend just how rich they are. Consider this: Let's say you had $1 billion in your bank account and had to spend $100,000 every day, for an entire year. After 365 days, you would still have $963,500,000 (nine hundred sixty-three million five hundred thousand). Discover More: Find Out: Over the last two decades, billionaires have ballooned their wealth to unparalleled levels. In 2005, Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates ranked as the world's richest person, with a net worth of $46.5 billion, as reported by CNN. Today, that title belongs to Tesla CEO Elon Musk, whose net worth stands at $368 billion as of June 5, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index. Even when adjusted for inflation, Gates' former net worth would be equivalent to roughly $76 billion in today's dollars. It is worth noting that other billionaires have also increased their wealth during the same time. For instance, tech billionaires Mark Zuckerberg and Jeff Bezos are worth $229 billion and $227 billion, ranking second and third globally. For many Americans, this trend is not sitting well. The sky-high cost of living has catalyzed support for redistributive tax policies, especially among younger voters and the progressive base of the Democratic Party. While higher taxation may or may not happen in the years to come, here's hypothetically how much you'd get if the world's richest man gives a check to every American. The United States Census Bureau estimates the current population to be around 341 million people, ranking only behind India and China. If Musk's enormous $390 billion were equally divided in the U.S., each person would receive $1,144 (rounded to the nearest dollar). A couple would receive $2,288, while a family of four would get $4,576. Despite the enormous wealth of billionaires, much of their fortune is tied up in stocks, real estate, and other holdings. Only a small percentage of their assets is held in cash. Based on data from Forbes, Musk has a 12% ownership stake in Tesla and to date, he remains the largest shareholder in the $1.15 trillion electric vehicle company. This is in addition to a 42% slice in SpaceX and a 54% interest in xAI, among many other businesses. Interestingly, Bloomberg reported that Musk's financial holdings appreciated by 77% after joining the campaign trail with President Donald Trump late last year, as reported by Bloomberg. Investors became bullish on Tesla and Musk became the first person to ever reach a net worth exceeding $400 billion. Since then, Tesla's market value has fluctuated as a result of volatile market conditions, macroeconomic factors and the threat of a global trade war.

Exclusive: Violet Grey Names Former Bluemercury Executive as Group President
Tracy Kline, a former executive from the American beauty retailer Bluemercury, will join Violet Grey as group president on June 9. Her role will include overseeing the company's team, supply chain, stores, merchandising and marketing. Cassandra Grey, the company's founder, said it had taken a long time to find an executive with the right profile for the role, saying that her and CEO Sherif Guirgis, had been engaged in conversations with Kline since the end of 2024, and that Kline was picked for her expertise but also her people management skills. '[Kline] is sort of a unicorn — she's an operator, a merchandiser, a brand builder, and a team builder, too,' said Guirgis. Kline's appointment is the latest in a series of steps the boutique beauty retailer has taken to regrow and reestablish its presence following Farfetch's divestiture in September 2024. Grey and Guirgis, who previously worked in private equity, re-acquired the business and focused on expansion. The brand was originally founded in Los Angeles with a single store and e-commerce presence. Since Grey and Guirgis assumed control of the company, it has opened a new boutique in the well-heeled Upper East Side of Manhattan and launched a number of new exclusive luxury brands such as Poiret Beauté and Habelo. Its new incubation arm, Violet Lab, released a $1,100 fragrance under the Madame Grey brand in May. Against a cooling beauty market, the company, which is known for its glossy editorials and its 'Violet Code' rubric for admitting new brands to its selection, is hoping that its tight focus on premium beauty and stringent brand criteria will help it stand out. 'Our customers like that we're vetting [brands] and only accepting those we think could add value to our customers' lives,' said Grey. Kline said the company's curated approach will be a key differentiator going forward. Originally founded in 2013, Violet Grey was known for taking lesser-known brands like premium skincare makers Augustinus Bader and Dr. Barbara Sturm and launching them into the US market. 'This is where the trust comes in with the clients… [we're] not just launching every new brand that they hear of, and that's out there,' said Kline.
