There are suicides in every cultural and professional category.
We would have to factor out gender, alcohol use, caffeine*,
latitude, geography and other demographics to be accurate.
What would the rate of said action be as a percentage above
and below other occupations and why, would be the question.
And we also have to ask, are gambling personalities predisposed
anyway, so can we ever quite make a conclusion?

One of these days I want to initiate a discussion of suicide and its relationship to gambling. But I don't feel today is an appropriate time. I know of both a guest and host that followed this sad path.
As for Cosmo, another unintended consequence of the potential danger with balconies is simply carelessness after overconsumption of alcohol. I used to live in Flotida. And inevitably during every Spring Break there would be fatal results for unlucky college students falling from a lot lower altitude than what Cosmopolitan offers.
