The only thing in the world that’s advancing as fast as technology is vaccine incentives worldwide. First, it was free beer and movie tickets, then massive money prizes for anyone who’s been vaccinated. This week the target is teenagers in Washington DC between the ages of 12 and 17. The prize is irresistible for this age group: hundred-plus dollar Apple AirPods. However, many teens already have these trendy Bluetooth earbuds, and for those, there will be weekly draws for an iPad with headphones and scholarships.

It’s not unusual to see successful companies buy out small businesses with potential. Owners who get tired of running their business often sell their company and seek either a full or partial exit. The big dogs typically do so for their own game and only keep the original founders on board if the brand is sold for a lower acquisition price. However, companies like Crucial Compliance operate on a more heart-to-heart level. At the beginning of April, the industry-leading compliance specialist company acquired a father and son based brand called BetProtect in order to combat gambling addictions, while also maintaining ties with the duo founders. 

It’s almost been half a year since Australians began receiving COVID-19 vaccines but until this day, only 15.5% of the country’s population received both doses. Government officials are displeased with the laughable number and are eager to get the vaccination rate to at least 70%. Since the majority are uninterested, the concerned leaders are debating the possibility of introducing the vaccine lottery. The Prime minister is on board while the Labor leader is pushing for $300. 

What lengths would you go to in order to win the Lottery? Everyone knows that gambling winnings are purely based on luck, and there’s not much you can do to win except getting a ticket and hope for the best. Nonetheless, people pray, buy lucky charms, and have their fingers crossed.  Danyal Hussein, a British teen, did a lot more than just pray -  he made a pact with the evil forces in order to win the Lottery.
