Re: If you were rich, would you still gamble?

A lot of people here gamble to become rich, but some do it for fun.

The question is, if you wake up tomorrow with 50 million dollars, would you still gamble for fun, or would you forget about gambling and do other stuff? Personally I think I would still gamble. I do it now, and I know I realistically will never get rich off gambling, because I barely do it and I don't risk much money, just for fun sometimes, to test my luck.
So if I had a lot of money, I would do bigger gambles, but they would still enter in the "for fun" amount (for the new 50 million standard). For example, gambling 1K a month would be irrelevant, and winning with a 1K bet can give you big rewards if you are lucky. It would still be fun, in fact more fun, and it would be as non risky as it is now, in terms of going financially bankrupt.

I liked your answer. I also do the same

Wow if i woke up with 50M dollars.. I would not gamble it. I would just simply go on a long vacation and educate myself how to grow it and multiply it.
If I have that amount - i will go to Law School... and invest in myself some more.

good thinking mate finding more ways to grow your money would be much more fun and it will somehow move you away from gambling especially if you find that way from your interest it will focus your mind in what you love and make you more successful.

I agree with this because once you've already find the way to increase your financial without gambling it will very good thing to do than to play gambling at all because in gambling we don't have any assurance if we can really earn here in a very short time.

In my case if I have a lot of money and the love of gambling is still with me then I would surely not hesitate to gamble. You would appreciate gambling when you are rich because you are not afraid of losing as the money you spend is just a small amount for you, you will not be like the others who are desperate in making money in gambling.
