I was in argument with someone. His view is that people who gamble are those that what they have is not sufficient for them and so they try to make more money from gambling. He said if you have sufficient money to take care of your needs that you won't think of gambling. He made reference to some rich people, who don't gamble because they have sufficient money to even gift to charity but that those rich who still gamble are only addicted to it not just because of the money. Therefore, that the percentage of the rich gambling is very small compared to those in middle class and lower class.
So my question is, is the percentage of the rich gambling lower than the middle and lower class?
People don't gamble because what they have is not enough for them, gambling is not only about sufficiency as the person that your engaged in the argument said, it is all about what people want, this is just a behaviour, although there are greedy gamblers who already have money and feels that they can make more money through gambling.
There are rich gamblers and they don't come open to tell us that they are gambling thats why it looks as if they are few.
sincerely many rich people we see today are gamblers, they donate money to charity and also do other meaningful things but they gamble, why thing we should know is that rich people have a high stake on a small odd, they even understand gambling more than poor and average people is just that their approach towards gambling is different.
