Is this an isolated phenomenon or it's just where im from? I see more and more gambling commercials, tv ads, and I see more and more gambling spots all over the streets. There were casinos before but im talking about places where people take bets usually on soccer and other sports, not a classic casino with the usual casino stuff. I see they are located near high schools too. This could cause a gambling addiction epidemic among the youth, which has a hard time making money these days and feel desperate and end up gambling whatever little they make.

I claim this cannot be a simple coincidence. The rich have always gambled, but lower end classes weren't gambling that much in the past as far as I know. There weren't definitely as many gambling spots all over the place before.

If gambling is illegal in your country, then it will depend on your government on how to handle commercial advertising related to gambling. There must be sanctions for such actions. But if gambling is legal in your country then it will depend on the community to stop promoting gambling near educational places.

From what I know, poor people gamble more than rich ones, and surely there are more gambling addicts among the poor. The main reason for that is lack of education among the poor. They believe in superstitions and frequently act against logic. So, don't worry about gambling spots located near high schools because in most cases educated people gamble rationally and never risk more than they can afford to lose, but rather worry about poor regions where people really need protection. It's too bad that the very people who need this information the most never visit places like this forum.

I can see this in our place but it is not that worst. Gambling is one of the best way to pass time especially for our elder wives. They gamble with their friends and sometimes their families, in fact this became their family bonding. It concern me since kids can see them gambling and sometimes this kids learn by watching them and that kid watching will grow used to that environment that will also raise a gambler. That will be a problem not only to his future family but to the people around him also.

It would be a good time that your economy is growing. You can see people gambling in your country is a testament that they have spare money for leisure and recreation. The bad side of it is, if it would be abused which could lead to chaos in terms of finance.

In my local casinos you don't find young people gambling, its usually the middle aged and people closer to their senior years. And they usually gamble by playing slots or Bingo which some might not even consider gambling since they clearly do it to kill time.

When there is a young person they are usually there to drink and smoke and usually quit playing after they end up losing $40 or so.

Like the above posters have said, which country are you from? There might be some tax incentives and that's why you see casinos and casino ads everywhere.

Probably your Government has opened up the avenue for gambling in your country. It may be possible that your government is eyeing for more tax revenue through this business because gambling is one such businesses where money makes money without having to produce anything tangible! That's a quick money churning business. But there should be an age limit to enter into this space otherwise it may have very adverse effect on the youth as you have correctly pointed out! School Kids shouldn't be allowed gambling most definitely! I assume you are from a South Asian country!

Gambling will definitely grow from different countries the only difference is how it can quickly grow so I don't think it's only from your country.

If it grows at a nonstop rate for example here in the gambling section we see a lot of casinos gets launched every month or two eventually a few will remain in operation because there's not enough money for every casino.

You mentioned that it could lead to people gambling more while I agree to this there could also be a small chance for the lower end classes to become addicted since they can't gamble for a very long time.

It depends in the community if they will welcome such business in your country. Even if the government will allow building of such structures for casinos left and right if the people don't want it, if the people will not patronize it this business will be out of business in no time. Maybe the people there in your country welcomes such kind of business that's why they allow this kind of business and the casino owners will not approve having a casino operations in areas where they think they don't have a market.

I believe gambling industries have grown fast right now, people have many choices to playing gambling, and now, they don't have to visit gambling place, but they can play gambling online. I see on many websites serving ads about gambling and with the easy way, people can start playing gambling. I think it will give some bad habit for the youth and they can be an addicting person in gambling. In the end, people especially the younger people will lose all of their money, and this could trigger poverty everywhere. But in another side, I believe that people now become smart, and they can filter which is bad and good so they can choose the good things that will give benefits to them and stay away from the bad thing.

Hey I see you have failed to mention your country, so my first question is gambling legal in your country?. If it is legal then it's natural for it to grow, and at times even government supports it, as it leads to higher revenues in taxes. I feel people love to live the thrill of putting money on their favourite teams and make easy money, while it's a shame to see they're spreading near schools you could seek the relevant authorities and bring it down.

I wonder what country you are in. There are countries who do not allow gambling near schools and church. Maybe the local government allowed it even when there are laws passed by the national government not to allow such operations to happen. Bottom line is blame it on corruption, it's not going to happen if the law is strictly implemented and applied to everyone.
