The luck numbers are twelve, forty five, twenty three , and the bonus number is 1. What are the chances and who do they really favour?.
The lotto has been running in South Africa for the last 3 years, with people spending countless amounts of money in hope of winning the lotto. The lotto is a form of gambling which can easily become addictive. When the chances of winning are one in 10068347520 the odds are against you in more than one way.
In the last year South Africans have spent more than R4.2-billion on lotto tickets and the majority have seen nothing in return. The reason behind the lotto was to give back to the community and there is little evidence to show that this is happening. The lotto raises your hopes falsely and burns a whole in your pocket. The South African government did not take time to think of all the implications of introducing the national lottery.
Statistically eighty percent of lotto winners return back to their previous financial circumstances within five years due to the fact that they have not been educated to handle their new found wealth. In modern day South Africa there are many men and women who have been left homeless and uneducated as a result of the apartheid era, and these are the people spending their money on an improbable dream. Gambling is obviously hitting those who can least afford it the hardest. A high proportion of gambling by the unemployed has negative implications for the country. .
Research commissioned by the National Gambling Board has found a disproportionately high incidence of gambling among the unemployed and poor households. It found that 27 percent of people without jobs played the lottery and 22 percent visited casinos. It is a tragedy that it was in sections of society where poverty was the highest that gambling was the most prevalent. This does not only affect adults but it dictates the life their kids will have. Parents will spend their last penny on their addiction, and risk their children's education and well being.
