With the recent rise in gambling activities especially even among the elderly those seen as elders who supposed to be advising the younger generations about the genders of gambling getting involved in related activities, infact if you enters a local gambling shop in my country you will not no an elder from a youth because you see elders also engaging in gambling especially virtually sport betting.
So am asking the forum what do you think is the cause of the rise in gambling related activities in our society is it due to bad economic situation or simply addiction?
Let have your view please
Probably it's the economy. Here in my country, there are some points that there are too many illegal gambling operators here and many of my people got hired and spread gambling in the whole society. It kinda affects the whole country, there are so many promotions of gambling sites in the country, even some affiliate links spread all over the social media.
So, it's a huge part that it become a trend because of the economy and the acts of the government that didn't make a move about it.
Addiction plays a role too, of course if a person always plays gambling even, he loses a lot of money, sometimes they also tried borrowing money to their friends just to gamble.
So yah both affects everyone, both pushes every individual to gamble and spend money.
