Description
This thesis is broken down into two sections. The first being market research and the second being the creation of the financial guide. The first section includes our primary and secondary data. In this section, we discover whether or not there is an actual need for a financial guide among college students, as well as the relationships among different variables that we included in our survey. The second section comes in the format of a financial guide that we have created. It includes topics that that our survey respondents feel most pertinent to them. It also uses the data we collected to emphasize certain topics over others in order to educate our readers and capture their attention as much as possible.

Description
Over the past few years, legislation legalizing sports betting in many states has been voted into effect. In the spring of 2021, Arizona legislators approved a bill that would legalize sports betting for anyone over the age of 21 in Arizona, and with Governor Doug Ducey signing the bill into law, September 9, 2021, marked the first day of legal sports betting in Arizona. Due to this new major avenue of business, sports betting became a very popular topic in both the news and social media, creating a buzz for new users in Arizona. This study will focus on the sports betting industry and the major companies involved in creating sports betting infrastructure in Arizona. Data will be collected and analyzed from multiple sources including company financial statements, news articles, and independent research focusing on the financial impact of Arizona sports bettors on the sports betting industry’s market profitability. It is expected that there will be a correlation between money gambled in Arizona and a rapid increase in profitability for sports betting companies. This study will provide an overview of the economic impact that sports betting had in Arizona in 2021, and look towards the future of betting in years to come.
