Most of gamblers are rich or poor?

[FlightyPouch]

I don't think we still need to ask this since we all know that even they are poor or rich, their status does not matter, what matters is that they should be responsible and will not be pushed to be greedy with this. Rich can go poor and poor can still be poorer.

[Juliedarwin]

Its not an issue when you are a rich or a poor person to become a gambler. And it's not an important when you are a rich or a poor person. One thing for sure that we need being as a gambler is..you have a money to invest and to play in gambling site. It's up to you how when you grow it.

[Finestream]

I don’t think you can pigeon hole gamblers as poor or rich. Just like in all walks of life people/gamblers come from  all kinds of different backgrounds. Some gamblers are rich, some are poor & many are stupid who lose everything trying & failing to get rich.

I hope the poor will not gamble because it might negatively affect their life if they lose their focus in gambling.
The principle that we should follow in gambling is to gamble what we can afford to lose, poor people does not earn a decent amount of money, so if they will gamble hoping they will be able to grow it, it might only cause them trouble in the long run.

That's why there are countries who bans gambling because the government sees the negative effect of gambling to the people.

Gambling is one activites that don't discriminate, as both rich and poor can play them. What is expected of the player is too check their pocket or what they can afford.
But then, another thing is that I don't think that someone who has not eaten should take his/her feeding money to gamble. Whoever does this is purely addicted to gambling.

[Slow death]

The question on the title just pop on my mind.
Are they poor or rich?
Remember the famous line on gambling?
"Only gamble a money you afford to lose". With that line we are really thinking of losing, the risk is still there.

So, what do you think on most gamblers now? Are the majority gamblers are rich or poor?

the majority gamblers are poor, full of debt, who sold all their goods and pledged their property. Gambling easily makes people addicted and as you can already imagine addiction drives people to do the biggest crazy things. it's human nature wants to win, nobody wants to lose, especially when money is concerned, so imagine that you play gamble and lose, what will be your attitude? your attitude will be to play again until you win, the problem is that in order for you to keep playing you need to have money and what will you do if you don't have money to gamble? you will steal, sell your things or pledge all your goods. Very few people are lucky enough to get rich with gamble

HOW TO KNOW IF A PERSON IS POOR/RICH?[/b]
 - Now, it's now on you how you will judge a person if they are rich or poor, we have different criteria on how we judge/look on poor/rich people.

rich people have a lot of money, they don't go hungry, they can buy any type and brand of car anytime they want, rich have many luxury homes, rich have yachts, rich have private planes, rich have the most luxurious things in the world. world. The rich have diamonds and gold, the rich have money-filled safes in their luxurious home. It's easy to see rich people. look at some rich from the gamble world:

Bill Benter; Edward E. Thorp; Zeljko Ranogajec; Billy Walters; Patrik Antonius; Phil Ivey; Alan Woods

I confess that I was very impressed with the history of each of them

I have yet to meet a rich gambler. Of course there are high rollers, but most of them didn't make their fortune by gambling.

Exactly, people who can't even afford to buy their basic needs are still allocating some money for gambling, which is not good anymore since they are surely not gambling the money that they can afford to lose. I live in a small community, and I've witnessed a lot of people here who do gambling despite they only earn a minimum wage which is very low, and they also have a children to feed, some parents even bring their children in the gambling area which is bad because they are influencing their kids to gamble at a young age.

In fact, gambling involves all segments of society, including the poor, middle and rich.
The most common difference is the method of gambling from gambler to gambler.

^ Definitely right, there are many gamblers and it does not depend on what you are status in life. Probably those people who had gambling enthusiasts are in the middle not poor and not rich enough. They can afford to spend money to gamble. But here in my place, the majority of them are poor and usually had a huge debt. People always looking easy money and they think that gambling is the answer to pay their debt even it takes more risk.

That is just status in life, and we don't have to think too serious. But most gamblers are rich people because they have money to gamble. If they think that it is better to save money than to be used for playing gambling, I think they will be richer than before. They will have a chance to get more money from saving their money in the bank, although the return is not too big.

I don't know where the question falls. Whether the thread maker is talking on people who are rich already doing gambling and getting rich from it or if people who are rich already do gambling but whatever it is, I don't think that gambling gives wealth on the average of people who are gamblers. We have so many poor people who are gamblers than we ha rich people, this is my criteria.

[peter0425]

My answer is same with everyone who said you can't decide it. We can't tell because we don't exactly know what's their main job, also how much money they have, or even how much money they spend on gambling.
You can gamble even if you only have small amount, it's different case when you can only gamble if you have much money in a site.

I think those point of yours are valuables and beside this is not debatable because people that can bet are already a gambler and looking if who is majority is really hard to determine,some says the good basis is those who bet in Lottery but for me there’re many rich people that also buy lottery tickets for what reason ?i don’t know.

I don't know where the question falls.

The question is clear mate “who plays the most” it doesn’t matter if the one got richer through gambling or not but the opinion sharing is about who bets most

I agree, of course they can afford to gamble and I think they are not poor. If the majority of gamblers are poor they can't afford and they don't have enough capital to use in gambling. My answer maybe they are neutral or rich people. Poor people are always lack of money and only can afford their daily needs just like food and clothing.

The numbers of people who are involved from gambling mostly those poor who wanted to have some luck to double their money in a short period of time, taking this place to risk and take chances, maybe if there's rich person who play, the chance that they've wanted to remain hidden to protect their reputation, compared to those who are not concerned about such things.

[rdluffy]

It's hard to say, because I know different kind of people that like to gamble

But I can say a pattern that is easy to find, at least in my country
Most gamble addicted persons are porr or average, and the rich ones usually play for fun and can handle the losses

If I have to say about your thread:

Online or crypto gambling: Usually rich people

Local gambling: usually poor or average people

HOW TO KNOW IF A PERSON IS POOR/RICH?
 - Now, it's now on you how you will judge a person if they are rich or poor, we have different criteria on how we judge/look on poor/rich people.

In order to play gambling we need money. Without money, no one can play gambling. So when gambler comes to gamble he must be rich as he has extra funds which he is willing to spend in gambling. But when he loses this money in gambling he become poor.
Since most of the gamblers loses, I think many of them become poor. Only a few people win good in gambling and they become rich through gambling.

I don’t think you can pigeon hole gamblers as poor or rich. Just like in all walks of life people/gamblers come from  all kinds of different backgrounds. Some gamblers are rich, some are poor & many are stupid who lose everything trying & failing to get rich.

This is also my view, it's not about the status of life but his character on how he shuns gambling, there will always gambling around us, especially in a place where gambling is legal, here on the internet there are a lot of gambling sites and it's much easier to fall, because you can do it in a privacy of your room without knowing anyone in your family.

There are forms of gambling that cater for the poor and there are forms of gambling that caters for the rich, so it's about the character of the individual.

You cant say that because even on poor or 3rd world countries there were still gamblers even though their money isnt sufficient or enough to their living.
Reasons? They are hoping that they would able to win at least they can possibly win and double up their money or even more but actually this isnt kind right
way of thinking just to solve out poverty because you are making the situation even more worst but well we cant stop on whats the reality which is happening on.
We cant point out which one is poor or not.

[ChrisPop]

I can't say for sure as I haven't looked on any statistics about this, but my bet is most of them are poor. Because that adrenaline rush goes away ( I think) when you are wealthy and have cash flows coming from all sides. The poor man's hope is in winning big time at a roullette or a blackjack game haha But instead of investing that money they look for a short term gain of money without realising that in the long run they drain their wallet like a vampire.

[Jsmbugu]

I don't think that someone poor will spend his money on gambling games and even if he want to but he still poor so how he can get the money from.
So most of gamblers are either average people or rich. And to find out it's very simple because rich people they always gambling with big amounts of money that why they don't stay rich for so long xdd, and average people they are gambling with medium amounts so they stay always like that.
But i think no one should gamble with too much money.
