It is every ones' dream to live a fancy life and enjoy what life has to offer. Sports betting has become popular among mature Kenyans, i.e 18 years and above. Both men and women are willing to take chances to stake a certain amount of money and hope its returns are huge.
These have proven a worthy form of investment as those lucky pocket huge returns, eg the Sportpesa mega jackpot winner who netted Sh230,000,000 after staking just a hundred bob!
Sport betting companies give offers to members which they can't resist. Some of these offers include free bets which enable one to kick-start their betting career without putting his/her money at risk of loss.
Others offer free deposits as members do not pay for transaction costs when they credit their accounts.
Technology has contributed largely to the number of people participating in gambling as they are able to access the betting sites from the comfort of their phones.
High unemployment levels in the nation have made people venture into gambling as a means of earning a living and sustain their needs.
Although one can earn through betting, one is always at a high risk of loss. Some borrow loans from banks, friends, and relatives in order to have the stake money.
A loss can lead to suicide and depression to the participating parties. Therefore, responsible gambling should be practiced to avoid a financial crisis.
