We look at the rise of online sports gambling, why Gen Z and young investors are increasingly drawn to betting, how sportsbooks make money, and what the numbers reveal about long-term sports betting profits. Then we compare gambling with investing, retirement savings, Roth IRAs, 401(k)s, index funds, and the opportunity cost of losing money while you’re young.
