Show notes

The concept of sheer luck giving us access to untold wealth is a tale as old as time. The other tale that is as old as time is, a fool and his money will be easily parted. The gambling industry is at the nexus of these two concepts. The multi-billion-dollar gambling industry is probably the lucrative in the world. In fact, gambling is the foundation of entire cities like Las Vegas, Monte Carlo and Macau. The bright light of the gambling halls and the money they generate hide a darker side. They hide the misery and poverty that gambling addiction creates in the many, many people who simply cannot resist their lure. Rwandans are not immune to these challenges and my guest this week, Adam Bradford, is doing what he can to push back against the ills of the gambling industry. Adam is a Director at Crucial Compliance Africa , a gaming and gambling compliance company, that aims to promote safe gambling in Rwanda. He is also the Chairperson of the Adam Bradford Agency.
