More than 50% of the world population gamble in one sport or the other and some are making good money while some are still hoping and praying for their luck to shine.
That sounds unrealistic. You’re basically saying over 4 billion people in the world are gambling since that’s 50% of the total population. Without any data to back it up, that claim doesn’t hold. And I also don’t believe gambling is a “source of crime,” because if gamblers were really defeating sportsbook, they would’ve stopped operating a long time ago.
