Between the Rich and Poor which one is likely to gamble for funs.

[POPOLUV]

I'm really in the state of quagmire about this topic i created and which i give it a second thought that i have better place to share it and gather allot of ideas from different individuals here because there was a serious argument between two friends that was deliberating that the rich people fall in the categories of gamblers that gamble for fun and the other friends was seriously defending it with his points that gambling for fun is a personal decision, that gambling for fun doesn't determine the kind of status you are, and  i try to support the other friend that says gambling for fun is a personal decision but the other friend is still insisting that is a lie that gambling for fun is basically for the rich people.

Please i need your ideas and contributions on this argument between the two friends.

... gambling for fun is a personal decision, that gambling for fun doesn't determine the kind of status you are,

There are many rich people who are still looking for ways to get more money and not even satisfied with what they have. So when you have such rich persons who are not contented with what they have and the sources of income that they have already, it is very likely that they may tend to want to include gambling as a source of income and see it as a way to make extra money to add to what they have. So it is very possible for the rich to still be gambling for money, just as it is possible for the poor to be gambling for fun.

Gambling for fun has a lot to do with the deposition of the gambler and little to do with their financial abilities. The rich also gamble excessively. A thread created here some days ago showed a man that won millions from gambling and wasted it, so you see that even though he became rich, his mentality and deposition remained the same and he was wrecked.

Gambling for fun is a discipline and can be adopted by the rich and poor alike to checkmate their gambling excesses, curb addiction and avoid huge financial losses

On Stakes.com, you can use $0.01 to gamble on many games. Someone that is not having much money should be able to make use of such platform to gamble. I have also noticed this on few other crypto gambling site. Also there are some local gambling sites that I have seen this. The gambling sites made it possible for everyone to gamble, it is left to individual to gamble responsibly or irresponsibly.

There is no answer to that argument as it depends on the person itself. Everyone here could have different reason that they gamble, and even if majority of us here are not that rich we still gamble with our hard earn money. So this is going to be a never ending debate, but have it's strong points and both have negative as well. Everyone is free to gamble and whatever their reasons might be, we should respect it. No need to argue who is right or who is wrong. Gambling is open to everyone.

[Beparanf]

It’s not about the financial status on how to determine the purpose of gambling for fun because even poor can gamble using small bankroll and small base bet to have fun even if they are not financially stable. This question depends on the person characteristic.

But in general especially on 3rd world countries, poor gamble because they think gambling can help them escape poverty that’s why addiction is very high poor country.

Being rich doesn’t mean you gamble for fun because you can use your money to have fun on other things, it’s just many poor just gamble the with the wrong mindset.

[Jubilee58]

In my own opinion, the rich people will likely gamble for fun. It is obvious that no one enjoys loosing money weather rich or poor or even the amount you are gambling with. But in this case, I look at it that the rich people have enough money to give away, and it doesn't impose any financial stress or threat on them. But this is not the case with a poor person. When a poor person looses money, no matter how small, the loss may impose some kind of stress or threat on the person, because is possible he or she doesn't have such money anywhere again. Considering these facts, is more possible for a rich man to gamble for fun than a poor man, because if a rich man looses money to gambling, he still have enough to catarrh for himself, but if a poor man looses money, he feels so bad and will likely begin to chase losses.

[Nwada001]

Gambling for fun is indeed something of a personal decision; it's not something that's being determined by who is rich or who is poor, but if you ask those who said it's by wealth, they can also still place their argument with valid examples, as you can easily see the poor man on the street.

The reason why they are mainly gambling is because they want to use it as a means to escape poverty, while the rich could say they are doing it because that's the only means they have to spend time and entertain themselves, but in reality only they know exactly why they are gambling, so the argument is that they are both right.

Depends on what kind of headspace you've got. For someone who's "Rich", I think there are two types of them, the I don't care about money type of rich (I call them filthy rich) and the busy-bee with lots of businesses type of rich. The filthy rich ones would surely gamble just for fun, but those business-minded types are always looking for ways to earn more money, even when gambling, which may sometimes take the fun out of gambling. As for the poor, someone who's poor but in the right headspace, living carefree and not bothering with heavy problems, they too can gamble in a fun way, since, as other users have pointed out, nowadays you can place a bet as low as $0.10.   It all boils down to what's your state of mind.

[Oasisman]

Gambling is supposed to be for fun, regardless of the person's financial status, and for as long as a person can afford to lose it.
I understand where your other friend is coming from, your friend only thinks gambling is for rich people because they obviously can afford to lose it. At the same time, most broke people who gamble are seeking an easy profit, so most likely, broke people don't really gamble to have fun, they gamble to survive.
There are these sayings that broke people shouldn't be gambling at all, because they don't have enough money to lose in the first place. The money that was spent on gambling should be kept for other things that are far more important. But some of them claim they are actually having fun while gambling, and that the winning amount is like a bonus for them.
Therefore, it all depends on a person how they define "fun" in gambling, but one thing is for sure, lack of money is not really fun.

I think the difference here should not be drawn between the rich and the poor, but between people who have different attitudes toward money. If a person spends money easily, they are able to gamble for entertainment, regardless of whether they are rich or poor. But if a person is more careful with money and spends it very cautiously, then such a player will not gamble for fun, because they will see gambling as a waste of both money and time. So I think it makes more sense to distinguish not between rich and poor, but between people based on their attitude toward money.

[Pandu Geddon]

Anyone who gambles for fun, we might not be able to judge them based on whether the gambler is rich or poor. Basically, I think that gambling is indeed entertainment for those who are wealthy. But when small bets can be made, it allows people with lower incomes to also participate in gambling. Only, perhaps the purpose is no longer for fun, but more to win a sum of money.

You can't dismiss anyone's argument because there is logic in both. I support the idea that rich people gamble for fun and there is no denying that they gamble to make money. Gambling for money or for entertainment is a very personal decision but there is a strong case for rich gamblers that they gamble for entertainment most of the time. If they are addicted to gambling, it doesn't affect their social and personal lives much and they can easily forget about losses because they have enough funds to gamble.

Gambling affects poor gamblers very easily, whether they win or lose. Most of the poor gamble to make money, as almost everyone will admit, and this is true for many gamblers. Making money is a key factor in the relative importance of the two types of gamblers, no matter how you explain it to them, it affects some more and some less.

The argument would always favour the rich class as people who don't really gamble for the main purpose of making profit but for fun and means of leisure. Reasons are that they're already rich, ain't into gambling to escape poverty so it's most likely they're just doing it to distract themself from too much work stress. But for the poor, because he's poor he can't really argue for it that he's just catching fun while he's actually poor. But this doesn't rule off the propensity that there are averagely poor people who gamble for the fun of it and doesn't mind what result that comes.

But when small bets can be made, it allows people with lower incomes to also participate in gambling. Only, perhaps the purpose is no longer for fun, but more to win a sum of money.

Rich people are very wise in a way that if they see anything that is not bringing them money like gambling or in a way that they are losing money, they already know that it is not what they can go for. If they are not making money from it and not having fun with it, that means they will just stop gambling.

But people that do not have money will think differently, they will be the one that will use small amount of money on parlay, wishing to win huge amount of money but they will continue to lose instead.

It sounds good, I know it's a good casino but for the time being it's not always gambling. But in the casinos I use, it is not possible to bet so low, minimum $0.10 and $0.20. I think it can accommodate all gamblers. As @Op says,I think the rich have the most fun in gambling and they don't care about much money. And the poor gamble not for fun but to make money because they don't want to live in poverty. And most of the time they get into more trouble by gambling irresponsibly. So it is better to live by working in real life rather than gambling.

I'm not rich and I gamble for fun so your friend that is arguing that it is only rich people that gambles for fun is totally wrong, gambling for fun is a choice and you can choose it as a gambler or choose that you must get rich through it. But if you ask me who among the rich and poor that will gamble for fun more I can say that it should be the rich because they can afford to loose more although I don't have any data to prove it. What every gambler should focus on is to always use amount that they can afford to loose, if you're gambling like that it means that you're a responsible gambler despite your financial class. Rich and poor can be addicted to gambling if they are financially irresponsible.

[Lucius]

Is there any doubt about who gambles just for fun, and who is looking for something more than that? I think that there is nothing fun in the fact that a poor person takes his salary and gambles away it in one night - compared to a rich person who gambles away a very large sum of money in that same night, but with the difference that such a loss does not represent a problem in his life.

The rich gamble for fun, the poor hope to earn a lot with a little money.

It is easier for the rich to gamble for fun than the poor who is struggling to for means of survival. However, anyone can become an addict due to reckless gambling and it don't matter the status of the individual wether rich or poor, most times the rich stakes and when they don't win they likely move on than the poor that depended on that particular game to win so he can sort out his bills due to lack of other sources of income and that what makes the difference between the poor gambler and a rich one.

On the contrary the mentality of the rich differs from that of a poor gambler, for instance if he gambles for profit and he has encountered so many looses he can retract his steps and quit for the time being but the poor will continue to chase his looses because he has no other sources of income to fall back to and that will keep making him to be open to more losses, so the rich has more advantages of gambling for fun than the poor but either ways gambling for fun, entertainment and profit making is the sole decision of the person involved.

[Sim_card]

Anyone can gamble for fun, it's a personal decision because I have seen a rich man that became broke after losing his properties to gambling. Everyone has their reasons why they're gambling. Let a rich man lose big, he will be angry because he has gambled with what he cannot afford to lose.
