Students are not the wealthiest clients for casinos. They have bigger spenders than students. Poor people and students are some of the vulnerable clients gambling companies want to keep because they make up parts of their profits.
Students are vulnerable clients? I am not sure that they even gamble that much as people say. Maybe they gamble frequently, but they are not the biggest spenders. How much can they lose? Lunch money? They will quickly run out of them and they will have to stop or pause gambling until tomorrow. And, as they have still too much to explore in this world, I dont think that returning to gambling is their goal for tomorrow.
Well those students who are in higher institutions have way more to lose than just their lunch money mate. They might not be spending as much as most of the regular gamblers but the fact still remains they're still very vulnerable. Should they get addicted to gambling, a student could even end up using his tuition fees to gamble with high hopes of multiplying it. Sometimes I don't actually blame some students who actually turn to gambling, because some of them end up exhausting money for their upkeep earlier than they're supposed to but still have other financial needs left, and since not every students has the luxury of working while studying, they turn to gambling.
