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.

You’re asking a valid question, and you're right — gambling addiction is more common among the poor and working class. For many, gambling feels like a chance to escape hardship, while the rich often gamble just for fun. The poor also face more aggressive gambling ads and have fewer resources to recover from losses. So while rich people can get addicted too, it’s usually less visible and less damaging to their lives. Your observation reflects what’s seen in many societies.
