Yes. It doesn't matter whenever you're rich or poor, as once the addiction comes, it'll be hard to quit the practice of gambling. Most people believe that they'll become rich quick when playing gambling games (especially poor people), and they throw their life savings at them without knowing the risks of doing such practice.

Once they're seen in a troubled situation, they quit gambling, but it'll be too late for them. As for the rich people, they don't care throwing whatever amount of money that have into gambling since they're wealthy. Most of these people become extremely addicted to gambling that it's nearly impossible for them to quit doing such practice.

However, I'd like to advise that if you're seen in a situation where it's hard to recover your financial life, then you should do whatever you can to quit doing gambling at all costs. If you're unable to do so by yourself, then seek professional help. Otherwise, you could end tied up into gambling so much that no one would be able to make you quit. Just my thoughts
