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
This is true to an extent, Yes majority of gamblers I have met in my area and other places i have been to and in contact with are basically people looking for way make money and don't have enough of funds.
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?
I don't agree to this ,some of the rich gamblers I know don't gamble because they're addicted to gambling but rather for fun and another side income for them because if they win they have this opportunity of wining bigger money beacause of the amount of funds they have vers versa, even big men I know don't play like the ordinary gamblers in the street ,they risk when their chances of winning is on the high side.
