 Actually, it seems to be working the other way around, with the desperate economic circumstances leading to a greater desire to gamble, to try and find a quick win, a way out of the problems.For most of the locals living on the meager local wages, there are two popular forms of gambling, the national lottery and Zimbet. Just as with most everywhere else in the world, there is a national lottery where the odds of winning are extremely low, but then the prizes are also extremely high.

 It’s been said by economists who study the subject that most do not buy a ticket in the rational expectation of winning; people understand the odds well enough. Rather, the possession of a ticket that might win that fortune acts as a pleasure in itself, dreaming about what could be done, if it did win. Zimbet is based on either the local or the UK football leagues and involves predicting the results of future matches.Zimbabwe’s casinos, on the other hand, cater to the very rich of the society and tourists.

 Until recently, there was a very large tourist industry, based on safaris and visits to Victoria Falls. The economic woes and associated violence have cut into this trade.Amongst Zimbabwe’s casions, there are two in the capital, Harare, the Carribea Bay Resort and Casino, which has five gaming tables and slots, and the Plumtree Casino, which has just the slot machines. The Zambesi Valley Hotel and Entertainment Centre in Kariba also has just slots. 

Mutare has the Monclair Hotel and Casino and the Leopard Rock Hotel and Casino, both of which have gaming tables and slot and video machines, and Victoria Falls has the Elephant Hills Hotel and Casino and the Makasa Sun Hotel and Casino, both of which have gaming machines and tables.In addition to Zimbabwe’s casinos and the above mentoined lottery and Zimbet (which is very like a pools system), there are also two horse racing tracks in the country: 

the Matabeleland Turf Club in Bulawayo (the second city) and the Borrowdale Park in Harare.Given that the economy has shrunk by more than 40% in recent years and with the associated poverty and violence that has resulted, it isn’t known how well the tourist industry which supports Zimbabwe’s casinos will do in the near future. How many of them will survive until things improve is simply unknown.

Crashing rocket will create new moon crater:

  Crashing rocket will create new moon crater:  Rarely would the abrupt appearance of another effect cavity on the moon can be anticipated, yet it will occur on March 4, when a neglected SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket will collide with it. The rocket sent off in 2015, conveying NASA's Deep Space Climate Observatory ( DSCOVR ) test into a position 1.5 million kilometers from the Earth, pointing toward the Sun. Be that as it may, the consumed upper phase of the rocket had deficient speed to escape into a free circle around the Sun, and was deserted without a choice to control once again into the Earth's environment. That would be typical work on, permitting stages to wreck on reemergence, accordingly decreasing the messiness in close Earth space brought about by risky garbage. Since February 2015 , the 14 meters in length, neglected upper stage, massing almost four tons, has in this way been in a wide circle about the Earth. Its exact developments have been difficult to anticipate, i...

Winning the Money Struggle

  Winning the Money Struggle Labels:  compound, credit, credit card, currency, debt, Finance, financial freedom, foreign currency, forex, Freedom, Inflation, interest rate, make money, monetary, money, pay bills, wealth Each day it seems harder and harder to stay ahead of the bills. With higher inflation, increased gas prices, credit card rates going up, and so on and so on, what’s a body to do? For sure, doing the same old thing will not get you ahead. Perhaps a higher paying job will do the trick. Maybe you’ll be written into the will of a rich uncle. Or, maybe its time to try new thinking and a new approach.  The word “wealth” is derived from Old English words “weal” (well-being) and “th” (condition). “Wealthy” can be defined as “the state of being rich and affluent,” “having an abundance of material possessions and resources” and “being profusely happy.” What does “wealth” mean to you? Does it mean not having to worry about money? Having good health? Having the f...
