Their focus is mainly on the money that they can earn, and due to this, they ignore the fact that they are losing all their money and it is not generating anything useful for them.
Yes, I admit that it is true. Most of the younger generation now find it easier to fall into gambling because with their winnings, they can have extravagances such as parties with friends, buy things that they don't really need, or even other dreams that will actually only be a shadow if they don't want to. worked hard to get it and only relied on gambling.
We as the older generation or maybe the same generation as them but have more knowledge about gambling, at least tell them what gambling financial management is so that they don't experience big losses that can destroy their lives.

Gambling marketing is now easier. in fact, it is really aimed at the younger generation. that is one of the reasons why young people are more inclined to gamble. Moreover, apart from information that is easy to obtain and if we look at their mental condition, today's young people are more likely to be active and curious and want to try new things in their lives. Instead of wanting to get rich quickly, or at least get more pocket money, they end up falling into the world of gambling which makes them worse off.
Younger generations understand that money is everything in this era and they can't do anything if they don't have a lot of money, so they are always on the look out for ways that they can use to earn a lot of money and they probably find gambling as an opportunity to achieve that because we know gambling provides one the opportunity to either earn a lot of money or lose what they have, and people these days are ready to take such risks without giving it much thought only to try and achieve financial freedom in their lives.

I know it's a wrong mindset and gambling isn't the right way to do that, but you can't make them understand easily. Their focus is mainly on the money that they can earn, and due to this, they ignore the fact that they are losing all their money and it is not generating anything useful for them.

Such a polarizing question, where's the middle aged ones? I'm sure that if you add it, they're definitely the highest number of the gambling population in my country but if it were only the two, I'd say that it's the elderly, we may see more young people gambling on the streets but they're not that many, you just see the same kid probably gambling on different places, elderly gamblers do it in casinos, they do their thing where they can get their drinks, enjoy the ambience and if they're the perverted old man kind, touch the butts of hostesses in the casino, basically sexually assaulting them, plus the elderly got more money because most of them if not all are pensioners.
People middle aged also playing gambling like younger and older people but we don't knows if they are often playing gambling or just playing gambling occasionally. People middle aged are busy with their job and they are in their golden ages so if they just playing gambling without using their times to works and builds their wealth and their lives, there's something wrong with them. We knows that many people playing gambling, regards of their aged because gambling can easily tempts them to enjoy many gambling games. As long as they have money, they can playing gambling anytime they wants but one thing that they don't realizes is they can lose much money from gambling if they don't limits their time and money. That's happens to many people out there and many of them becomes addicted to gambling which is difficult to cured.

Most of the gambling platforms appearing in our country do not ask for KYC. Even an underaged bettor can play without any hassles or blockers which makes it quite alarming. Also, with the growing popularity of online gambling in social media, I'm confident that the young gamblers outnumber the elderly due to difference in understanding in technology overall. The target audience of gambling influencers are mostly young adults, and the said audience are biting the bait most of the time thinking they can replicate the luck of the person they're watching.

It would be best to have a definitive data on my claims, but from mere observation, I can see that the younger generation are a lot more engaged to gambling compared to the older ones.
You raise some good points but even then it is difficult to tell, the elderly are for the most part retired already, they have a lot of free time for their hobbies, they most likely already paid all their debts and have a pension fund as well.

So while the young are without a doubt more knowledgeable about the new technologies, they may not have as much money or time to spare for their hobbies, while on the other hand the elderly are not limited by those factors and can gamble whenever they feel like it.

Patience is key
This same question I asked my colleagues, in my country where I come from the younger ones are taking over now cause of the online casino. Back then it wasn't like this but nowadays the youth's are much more gambling more than the elderly people. When I was growing up the younger ones can't even go close to a betting shop one thing is that the elderly ones won't let them come in, cause it's not allowed but now you can see a age from 15 to 17 years at the betting shop.

Sweating very serious gambling even querieing with the elderly ones. It's not proper and it's because of the this set of ages that makes other people sees gambling as an failure and downfall to the people whose gambles. So in my country right now I won't say that the younger ones gambles more then elderly ones, I don't think so cause 100% of the elderly ones focus more on games due the situation of the country. Some of the elderly one's gambling it's addicted to them.

And they also have more responsibility more then the younger ones. You know the online betting have made everything easier to people mostly for the younger ones, once you have a cellphone I don't see why you should go to betting shop and gamble anymore. I've a nephew who's just 12 years his mom bought him a cellphone thinking the cellphone that she bought is going to help him out with some of his assignments, but not knowing that her son have developed the habit of gambling online.

My question is that who tought him how to predict a game, he was eventually earning from it while his mom gives him money sometimes to feed at school, so now in my country the younger ones tare trying to take over but they can't beat the elderly one's.

Why? Cause they started it right from when there was no online casino betting so they can't compete with them. Is there any restrictions that younger ones are not allowed to gamble now, I don't think their is so with time the younger ones will eventually take over here.

Even the elderly one's they all started when they where younger ages it's just the few of them that started, at the age of 30 to 40 years and most of them it's because of one condition and another that made them go into gambling.

But the younger ones it's the love of football and they use the advantage of that to bet and win money. So right now in my country the gambling level of the younger and elderly one's equal with my observation.

Have you personally seen that kind of attitude coming from the elderly who like to spend time in casinos? They sexually assaulting the hostesses ?
Here in my country that is breaking the gambling and house etiquette in a very serious way and one could easily be thrown out the place for such things. Perhaps the culture of our countries are very different from one another, but I am still curious whether that is tolerated there or not.
Also, kind of ironic you mention the elderly can afford to gamble there because they receive money from their pension programs, because here it is completely the contrary situation, the pension is so low they can barely manage to eat, if they do not have the support of the rest of their family.

It only shows how different the situation of gamblers can be, according to where they live.

Since online gambling is already taking over the gambling market and gradually illuminating and outshining the old traditional method of gambling which is going to gambling outlets and shops, young people are more exposed to the modern way of gambling, which is online, so I can say that young people gamblers more now because they can now access casinos and gambling sites online, rather than going out of their houses to a gambling outlet before they can gamble. And since the older ones are no mostly exposed to these gadgets that allows them to access gambling online, they're still left with the old traditional way of gambling.
You may be right but there are also some gambling that you find more older people getting involved than young people just that majority of the gambling games are conquered by younger ones because they have possibilities of making money and using it to play gamble since older people may not have much strength to work again so in most cases they find it difficult to play because they don't have staking power (money to stake) but when talking about young people being more exposed to modern day gambling online, you need to know that some older men also play gamble online as I have seen several old men with expensive phones and gadgets and they do come to gambling agents to fund their online gambling accounts.

Exactly. Added to that, in the streaming community, there are a lot of streamers who think what they are streaming is gambling. I think this is a new movement or way of promoting gambling or online gaming, and because gambling sites are complying with the laws, they are permitted to let streamers promote their websites. Thats what is happening right now, and thats why many youngster are being more exposed and can easily access and try online gambling. Although there are still traditional or physical casinos, we cannot ignore the fact that online gambling is becoming more powerful as it is easier to promote, easy to access, and with more convenience.
Thats why I can say that in this generation, we can expect that more and more people at an early age are exposed to and known to gambling, and this should not be ignored because it can affect something if this topic is not taken action on.



The Government, Parents and social regulatory organisations and We can take action to cope the high rate of  promotion from influencers and exposure on social media platforms with different fantasy promises. The younger generation is breeding irresponsible gamblers and those who forget the right means to get decent income but all lack the zeal for hardwork. This can lead to decline with government check mating these rampaging campaigns of online gambling sites.

I have lived in many communities and some States or regions in my country and there are some communities I went and I discovered that women are more productive by going to farm and other daily activities to provide food in the family than men. While the male sons and fathers are busy playing bet with Checkers Game and popular known in my locality "Draft Board Game" and bet on "Whot Card Game". And their.wives would go to farm or fishing to feed the families. Till date those things are common in the places I have visited in the country, mostly the elderly ones who the young once are busy using the casino centers and websites to play their games.

The elderly ones are still busy playing games with the traditional methods so most of us didn't notice that they are gambling but they bet with money and that has become automatically a gambling habit while the younger generation is using the new methods of online and casino Halls. Mostly of this elders would left home early morning to the draft games centers and stay there till evening. Playing games with one another. In most time they use places that sells drinks and smoking things like cigarettes and others. Those places are always busy with elderly people.

Do you see such elderly people in your country? Or is it only in Africa? Is the younger ones play gamble more than the elders?

I would say that in the US you have literally the melting pot of gambling. You will see the legal age limit all the way up to folks in wheel chairs that are too old to even walk. Gambling is like a lifeblood for some folks due to addiction and enjoyment. There is certainly a newer fad going among the younger generations for online gambling and gambling with Bitcoin, something that the older generations surely don't have much knowledge of for the most part, but then again some of the older and sharper chaps and ladys do have the wherewithal to gamble in these settings.

Do you see such elderly people in your country? Or is it only in Africa? Is the younger ones play gamble more than the elders?
from various cities in the areas that I have visited, the majority of young gamblers are greater in number than older gamblers and almost the majority of these young gamblers bet on slot games and other luck based games and what is more surprising is that in one of the cities I have visited there are young male gamblers. the numbers of men and women are almost equal and this proves that online gambling has developed very quickly, it doesn't even limit women not playing it because of the fact that in certain cities there are also many young female gamblers who bet on slot games.
and for elderly gamblers in almost all the cities I visited, they only bet on traditional bets, but that's only a small part because most elderly gamblers prefer to buy lottery tickets just to spend their money and very rarely get a big jackpot.

development of advanced technology has had a major influence on gamblers in all states and I am also very sure that since online gambling is easily accessible from anywhere, the increase in young gamblers will be greater than that of elderly gamblers.

I live in a country where religion is very strong. even five major religious groups exist in my country. That's why gambling is strictly prohibited here, but surprisingly, people really like to gamble online. In fact, according to data from the financial transaction analysis agency, the first rank in slot gambling is dominated by young people.

whether it is an achievement, or even the moral and religious decline of young people in my country, what's more, this activity has been banned by the government.
Five religions are a lot. AFAIK it was only 2 or 3 at most available religions per country but this is good actually because this means we have a lot of options to choose from and we can transfer to other less strict ones, in case we have been baptize, xxx, etc... (IDK what it's called for other religions).

Another thing that can restrict gambling is the government and this one is global. That means no matter what your religion is (even if they allow gambling) you still can't do it because your government already blocked access to it. And if you insist of doing it, you will get punished once they caught you in action. The OP's question can depend on the legality age of gambling in a country but I think you are right that many young people are engaged in online gambling compared to its offline counterpart.

In fact, in the past, this was the emergence of a generation of parents who gambled offline, and even though they were banned, they still did it, and in fact it seemed like something had become a culture in the area. But as time progresses, maybe that will change a little.

In fact, in my country, what is currently happening is that those aged 17 - 20 are becoming very rapidly increasing in number as online gamblers. Moreover, online gambling is very worrying. because the effect is truly extraordinary, it can even make the younger generation here addicted. This is very bad, isn't it? At a time when the country is always preparing young people who are good for the future of the country, the existence of online gambling which is very accessible means that many young people are actually becoming online gamblers.

But on the other hand, this may not be 100% their fault. Yes, this trend is like a trend. not to mention the government's efforts to eradicate online gambling to minimize or reduce the risks and crimes that are not yet optimal. and this requires very good and significant cooperation from the government and society, especially parents..

In my country both old and young are into gambling.The young now gamble online by predicting national sport like football and they also visit casino hall to bet, while the old play traditional game and stick their money and the person that happens to win go home with the loser's money.The rate at which the young and the elderly ones are so addicted to gambling is not really helping the society.

Well, from what is happening around me here there are no much female gamblers or i rather say they are very difficult to see but i know there will be some women gambling without anyone knowing about it. The percentage of female gamblers is very low compared to male gamblers here.
The majority is dominated by adult men, but it also does not rule out the possibility of some women doing it too.
Especially now that online casinos are easy to access and anyone can gamble, even underage children accidentally play camouflaged gambling games as children's games.

Looking at many facts now, many games are ultimately categorized as gambling games,
but played by everyone without knowing age and gender limits.

Slot games now seem more popular because it is quite easy to play and only by filling a few coins they can play.
True, there would be no precise numbers but we can assume that it would really be something dominated by men or males that do play up with gambling industry considering that we are more that adventurous and something that loves that thrill and also does have that finances that could  support out such activity. On the time we do speak about those minors who do able to play then this is something that cant really be filtered out on which we know that in todays technology and accessibility then it wont really be shocking that there would really be that such involvement.

Numbers cant really be known but pretty sure that they are there and there's no way on stopping it out because accessing it would really be that so easy or just a few clicks with our mobile phone.
Doesnt matter much though because as long its not prohibited or banned then you could really expect that there would really be those involvements on which its a common thing
and not something that can be stopped.
