As November marks Responsible Gambling Month, concerns have been raised about how some South Africans are using gambling as a means to supplement their income. With unemployment at record highs and an ever-escalating cost of living, financial services provider, JustMoney is taking the opportunity to shine a light on the risks of gambling as a means for cash-strapped South Africans to make extra money. This was evident in a recent survey by JustMoney, which found that 3% of survey respondents chose online gambling over a popular cost-cutting option. The survey also found that those taking home less than R5,000 a month, are four times more likely to choose online gambling, with men twice as likely as women to opt for this. For more on this, Bongiwe Zwane spoke to Head of Customer Experience at JustMoney, Sarah Nicholson
