Of course, a bad economy is the cause of the rise in gambling, especially where there are no jobs or the available job is not enough to pay the bills. What comes to mind is what could be a possible way of making money. This is how many people run into gambling, thinking that it can generate money for them. Most people who gamble with the mindset of making money don't remain the same, as some become addicted due to their lack of understanding of gambling, and they don't mind gambling all the money they have on them.

I can remember when the economy was becoming so bad that I noticed many females starting to gamble. Before that, it was so rare to see women in gambling, and now you can see all genders gambling, both small and big.due to economy hardship.

Well, the countries with the highest number of gambling players are rich countries, where people have better living conditions, I'm talking about countries like:

In poor countries like mine, people focus more on getting money to eat today and having a chance to live another day. The next day they also go out on the streets to get money to buy food. They won't stop buying food to go and gamble. Of course, there is a small portion of people who gamble a lot and commit suicide because they used money they couldn't afford to lose.
