This is an open question, maybe I could be wrong in the eye of some of you but am asking this question because a large number of addicted gamblers are not even up to a middle class standard but they are addicted. Can someone tell me why it's like that or is it totally a different case in your society, maybe an opposite of what I asking is happening in your own society. Poor people gets more addicted, following the middle class before it gets to the rich. Since it's like that, I think it's just the poor people that are gambling the most in the world, if am not correct, I stand to be corrected.
Yes, the rich people gamble, but few might fall into the addition category, and you won't notice them because you don't operate within their class or circle. Therefore, you can't see them on the gambling shops like the normal street gamblers, they do their things in cool way, without disturbing people knowing gambling isn't where got them rich, only very few can be found addicted base on some reason we may not know, the rich man mindset and the poor man mindset over gambling isn't the same, The poor gamblers gamble with the hope that there come life-changing opportunity, whereas the rich see it as a game anything can happen, there's no too much hope or emotion being attached to it.
Rich people are the ones that get gambling addictions most time but we may not know since we may not be close to many of these big bankroll gamblers. Gambling is like a fun to many of these gamblers and they don't gamble like the way an average man gamblers. Since many of these multi millionaires have sufficient funds and different investments, they tend to gamble in millions because hundred of thousands which could be seen as less to the kind of amounts they are controlling.
The average gamblers are not really spending much compared to what the rich gamblers spend in a single bet. Addiction is mostly seen with the average gamblers because they are always gambling just to make money that could take care of their bills. Some gamblers can even gamble for the whole days without knowing that it's a sign of addiction.
