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.
If you think about it, there are simply many fewer rich people and you are unlikely to be exposed to them in the same way as you would everyone else. One major driver for gambling is this desire to get rich quickly or multiply your fortune, but if you're already rich there is less incentive to want that. In most circumstances being rich either came from family, so you might have been out through a better education system or is self made - meaning you're probably more intelligent than most. A better education will naturally teach you things like how unlikely it is for you to win. All that being said though, they are not immune to getting addicted either and once they are hooked they have a lot more resources to burn through.
