Original: More than half of Gen Z investors have funneled cash into sports betting—but they're not coming close to breaking even

The findings highlight how sports gambling has become a common part of young people's financial habits, often overlapping with investing, despite consistently poor returns for the majority of bettors.
Why now: Concerns are growing about the normalization of sports betting among young investors and its financial toll.
