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.
In my opinion, it's because rich people don't chase losses like those who are poor do, and they also don't take gambling as their full-time job. I know the rich also gamble, but their view on gambling won't let them get addicted. I have never seen any underprivileged person who gambles for fun. They always have big expectations on every game. With this kind of mindset, tell me why they won't get addicted?
Many poor people take gambling as their source of income, which is very wrong because these are the things that lead to gambling addiction. The rich don't have to think this way because they have other ways to generate money without hustling or stressing themselves, which helps them avoid the negative effects of gambling.
