Juxtaposing the potential downfalls associated with low-risk gambling like occasionally playing the Lottery\u00a0or casino games from time to time against severe physical disorders such as cancer and physical bodily harm is purely salacious, according to leading New Zealand economic advisor, TBD Advisory.<\/a><\/p>\n TBD recently distributed a video commentary, addressing a report on the effects of low-risk gambling, commissioned by the national Ministry of Health. The report, \u201cMeasuring the Burden of Gambling Harm in New Zealand\u201d has been characterized by TBD as essentially flawed and possibly even purposefully misleading and biased.<\/p>\n A waste of time and resources<\/strong><\/p>\n The report reportedly cost the health department NZ$319,000, but this may have been an ill-advised splurge as the research value is highly questionable. According to TBD Advisory, the analysis of low-risk gambling detailed in the report contains no fewer than 10 glaring research flaws.<\/p>\n
