When you think of problem gambling, do you imagine a smoke-filled room with cash and chips in the center of a table? Or someone pulling on a one-armed bandit? Things have changed! In the last decade, gambling has moved into the digital age. That means more people are just a click away from making risky and life-altering decisions, and the lines between recreational activity, financial investment, and gambling are blurred. Learn how mobile sports betting, online casinos, day trading, crypto, and video games are hooking a new generation who often don’t view their activity as gambling.
