Why don't the rich people get addicted easily?

[WhoYouCantKill]

You won't be wrong if you say that lower income groups mostly get hit harder by problems of gambling. When money gets tight, the expectations of winning big becomes even more tempting, and the daily stress of life may push a lot people toward risky escapes. Still at the same point, gambling is strongly marketed in a lot of low income areas. Yet addiction find it way across all classes. It is only more visible and more destroying among the poor as the losses hurt even more and the net of safety is smaller.

A poor gambler values ​​a small amount very highly, which is why he can gamble all day long for little amount. Poor gamblers have a strong desire to become rich, and since they do not have enough work opportunities, they spend more time gambling. It is difficult to consider the issue of addiction by judging the rich and the poor in gambling. It seems to me that all gamblers who find an opportunity to implement their goals in gambling become addicted in the future.

That amount you feel it's too small is big in their own view that is why they don't easily let go off it, the thing is there's no way we would compare the rich and the poor in terms of gambling because the rich can stake $100 in a single bet and if they are unlucky to win they will just walk away without panicking, i met a rich gambler the previous day in one of the popular betting shop in my country he was just playing with joy even while losing and there's a certain stage where he decided to Walk away and then give out the remaining change to his fellow gamblers because he's fed up with the fun, imagine someone who is gambling with this method how did you expect him to become addicted so easily?

Addiction don't care whether you rich or poor and most time one don't realize they are addicted to a particular thing. We have seen big names of celebrity that gambles but you won't know if they are addicted, Paul merson talked about is gambling addiction and how it bankrupted him so this is an example that Rich or wealthy doesn't mean you can't get addicted to gambling just like being poor isn't the target in been addicted to gambling.

The rich knows what it took them to get that point they are. They know that things don't easily come by, so you have to work hard before get these funds. Not like they don't gamble as well though, but they are more diligent with all their resources. They dont just spend it anyhow and end up wasting their time to be playing around when they have more serious things to do with that time to get more money.

When you're rich you have a world of possibilities at your fingertips, you can fly wherever you want, find thousands of different forms of entertainment and just generally have a very fun life. Most people without money get into gambling because they desire more money and think they've found some short cut to it. However the house always wins and it is baked into all the odds of every casino game, even the bookmakers are pretty effective at winning too. If you have lots of money in your pocket, you're actually less inclined to take big risks because swapping something for nothing is a silly proposition. They also tend to be more highly educated and that will inevitably mean they are less vulnerable to all the pitfalls involved with gambling.

Moreover, I think the biggest reason is that not even 1 percent of the world's population is really rich, the remaining 99% of people basically fall into different categories like middle class, lower class, etc. So if we consider this aspect, then automatically, since the number of rich people is less, the chances of them being addicted to gambling will also be less. On the other hand, where the number of poor people is much higher, if 5% of them become addicted, it will continue to affect the population of rich people. And for this, we basically think that rich people do not get addicted to gambling.

Many Wealthy people are addicted to Gambling.  You only rarely ever hear about it because they do not publish any thing about it or it is already normalized.  For example.  A lot of celebrities are 'addicted' to Poker or Black Jack.  I do not know if it is the destructive kind of addiction or only entertainment, but they are playing what we consider massive amounts in a single game and people think it is normal only because it is normalized in the celebrity world.

I do not know if I can name many Wealthy people who doe not have a habit of playing hands at the Casinos.

Yeah, Gambling hits everyone, but the impact on low income people is always heavier. When money is tight, that hope of one big win starts looking like the only escape, and stress just makes the temptation stronger. Plus the marketing in those areas does not even help, it almost feels intentional sometimes.

But like you said, addiction does not choose class. It happens to rich and poor, just that when the poor get hit, the damage shows faster because there is no safety net to fall back on. That’s what makes the whole thing even more dangerous.

The rich are busy looking for other ways to make money than being addicted to mere things they take or do for fun,they don't depend on gambling or wishes to sustain their lifestyle because they've worked and knows how the rule of life works . Being rich alone has given you enough responsibility already why would you want to add to that with unnecessary addictions.
   Most poor people don't have things taking their time,they sir and gamble all day that's what leads to most of the addiction because their are idol.

The world population and riches are not fairly distributed is something I'd have to agree with but that still means there are alot of millionaires and above available for a gambling market.
  I think the less you have to lose the safer you are personally, imagine losing a million because nothing less then that risk meant any big adrenaline rush for you.  If you lose a hundred and that was alot for you, its still possible to come back but not everyone rich can earn it back that easily so I think the loss can be far worse sometimes.  Not all rich people are equal some are just lucky where they landed in life and that was a one off.

This is an open question, maybe I could be wrong in the eye of some of you but am asking this question because a  large number of addicted gamblers are not even up to a middle class standard but they are addicted. Can someone tell me why it's like that or is it totally a different case in your society, maybe an opposite of what I asking is happening in your own society. Poor people gets more addicted, following the middle class before it gets to the rich. Since it's like that, I think it's just the poor people that are gambling the most in the world, if am not correct, I stand to be corrected.

The rich gamble with free will, more like they enjoy just the thrill and they pay money for the entertainment, at least thats how i see it, but for a poor man, you know you need money to gamble but at the same thing be hungry for more money, this would be their thoughts and thats why when they see an opportunity to use little money and win big money, they fall for it everytime.

Funny enough if you look at it, rich people who gamble lose money just like the poor man would, but the difference would be how they feel afterwards, obviously one will feel it more than the other that has spares.

It's precisely because wealthy people who achieved or achieved their wealth on their own—they overcame greater difficulties, on average—that they were better at things than others. Often, the skills of learning, studying, improving, perceiving the details, and perceiving these qualities also help in the game. The rich can simply think through many game scenarios and outcomes. However, such players are unlikely to develop as much as those who inherited money or were simply given money by wealthy parents, because everything came easy to them. In any case, there is a flip side, as there are professionals who made themselves out of abject poverty, so I'm not simply answering the question in general terms.

You're right, that's how things are There are many things that can influence what kind of rich person someone is, Those with inherited wealth don't care much about continuing that trend, Those who become rich by overcoming many obstacles are the ones who value their money the most That's where everything comes in Those who struggle overcome challenges, they learn, they know the value of money, they think about investing That's why it's quite difficult to determine the specific cases of each person.

I agree with you on this part. It's true that casinos don't really care if you're rich or poor, as long as you make a deposit and play on their platform. Once you do, they're guaranteed to make a profit from you, regardless of whether you win or lose. Perhaps some gamblers don't care about the money they might lose because they're wealthy, having many businesses that generate profits for them.

For them, losing is no big deal, and if they've experienced significant wins in the past, they might become addicted to the thrill of winning and constantly seek to experience it again. This is why they keep returning to online casinos, hoping to relive the excitement of winning, even if it means losing more money in the process.

I completely agree with you, those who are born with wealth without any effort, often do not develop the same caution or value towards that money, they tend to spend money irresponsibly and unnecessarily, but on the other hand, those who have become rich through their own struggle, understand the pain behind every penny, hence give much importance to investment, planning and risk management. Ultimately, everyone's journey is different, and that journey determines how much and how they value money.

Though that statement is quite true but there are also rich kids who follow the path of their parents, the reason why they continue to acheived more and having any issue with over-spending their wealth, those are well-trained kids who mostly trained the way that they become responsible.

And this are the types of rich people who don't fall into addiction but instead they treat this venue as place to enjoy and to kill some time for their social events.

Do you know why rich people don't get addicted like the middle class?, rich people don't just gamble because they want to bet , they are very calculative and they take calculated risk that why it looks as if they are not addictive to gambling, no rich will want to invest where he won't make profits. Even though we all know that there are chances of loosing but they hardly play for fun.

Why the poor gets addicted to gambling is because they don't have different sources of income, they just depend on betting hoping to make a living from it and once you do that you become addicted to it because you have no other means of survival than gambling that's the difference between the rich and the poor. And if you notice the rich bets once in a while but the poor bet almost everyday so they can win and survive.

it is not that the rich folks don't get addicted to gambling. It is just that it is mostly the poor that easily get addicted to gambling. Yes the poor folks do see gambling as a means of survival or the only way to make money. When gambling is seems as a means of survival then it will be given a kind of attention that will make a gambler to be addicted. Since most of the rich folks didn't see gambling this way they don't get addicted that easily.

I’ve met many multimillionaires in casinos who were gambling addicts, and most of them had psychological issues. Rich people usually don’t become gambling addicts easily because they can already get whatever thrill they want with their money.

Rich people can be crazy for emotions that gambling give and turn addicted because of that. People are weird with their wishes and desires. Money does not motivate them to gamble, something else does. Here is an example, rich people can afford personal trainers, nutritionists and a person who will monitor what they eat, they can eat the most healthy food; they can afford all that. However, there are rich people that are fat. The reason for that is taste. The reason why rich people are into gambling so much are emotions.

Rather than low income, i would say they are people with low education
because an intelligent person knows very well that you cannot earn money by gambling, due to luck

It's not a question of schools, it's a question of people who read and educate themselves. i don't have any high school education, but by reading and using logic i got there.

it is obvious that the rich people who participate in gambling do participate with precaution because they already know their limit and they also want the one in gambling at the same time

Why the poor people there are curious to win in gambling and that is one of the things that make them not to strategize where in other for them to benefit from gambling, the poor always having one negative mindset and such mindset is that, they want to win that is why they get addicted even when they lose in gambling they will continue to push forward in order to recover what they have lost, why the rich do forget their lost easily without pushing harder to recover what they have lost and that is why the rich never get addicted in gambling frequently like the poor.
