if both players are in the mood to lose, then the amount is not so important. The only point is how hard it was to earn this money, if for player (1) the amount of 5 dollars significantly impacts his monthly budget, then it may not be worth spending it on gambling. For player 2 for which 1 thousand dollars is not significant, the loss will be felt only over a long distance, at the moment when player 1 will feel it instantly. Comfort of life is an interesting indicator.
No gambler wants to lose they definitely want to win if they play gambling, and another thing is that the amount is important for poor people because it can be their needs even if it's only $5 so I think it's more not to force it if the little money is valuable.
The rich of course $1000 won't mind they can even afford to lose more money but that's in terms of the financial capabilities that are owned of course the rich and poor are far different in terms of their finances.

Poor people are too pushy, if $5 is valuable use more important things than gambling.
Rich people have fun in gambling, they are here to spend a lot of money sometimes they don't care about their addiction.
Losing money has not exemption on which whether you are rich or poor, you would really be definitely be losing money with gambling. The only difference is that when poor gamblers do bust up their capital then there's no way that they could easily recover those loses (which it isnt recommended) not until you would be deciding on taking up some loan just because you had become that so desperate.

This is where issues would really be starting to pop-up, on the time or moment that you had already that kind of desperation calls. The rich would really be always having the advantage in compared into those people who do have only sufficient amount on few rolls. Lets just accept the reality of this life when it comes to financial inequality. If you do find yourself on the poor side then it would really be just that
ideal that you shouldnt really be dealing up with gambling for making money.If you are really just that aiming for fun then its fine but if its other way around then better think not.

Like we kept discussing on other boards that Bitcoin trading or investment is not a convenient sector for an individual who does not have a source of income to invest their funds on otherwise, when they are in need of money, their Bitcoin assets becomes the only hope for them and the will be push to sell without undermining if profited or lost.

This is equivalent in gambling, we have as much discussed about gambling not being a good approach to rely on for source of income but a place to bet and gaming for funs but prettily potential to be profited if lucky to win more than the values of your stakes or even losts.

We have heard several stories of how gamblers has been financially and mentally affected at the course of addiction and loosing more than being afford simply because they are primarily aiming to make profits.

So I am trying to pick some statics to understand between the poor and the rich who gambles more for profit.
There in, I am convinced that the poor takes the lead because if we are to gamble with with is affordable to loose, the poor may actually not find the least stake of their $5 affordable to loose but yet they risks it on gambling. What for? Of course it is aimed to profit in returns and when they looses it, they goes frustrated and timely empty handed looking other means of raising as little to come back and keep trying again if they could win. Their major concern is to win and profit and never find fun as they play.

As for the riches tending to gambling for profits, even if they looses $1K + such as we have Drake has been, he actually don't feel so disappointed of the lost why? Because he has more and could afford so even while gambling for profits, they are not much financially or emotionally affected as the poor who can not afford the least lost on gambling.

Agreeably, some rich addicted gamblers do go bankrupts too but it takes processes to be drained they could loss but feels some fun expressions because they have more and could afford the lost at the moments but the poor start to feel drained at their first lost meaning gambling for profit is not a game for the poor else or even the inability to pull out when they are financially being affected.
In all, gambling without sustainabilities of income as you stick to gamble is not just a good place for anyone who is after making profit.

So since we can not make personal decisions for our fellow gamblers who had lost their prides in chasing the profits on gambling, let keep advocating for carefulness even while compromising the concept of gambling as a game of fun and not to be enriched.


I agree with you on this, 5 dollars might be a big deal to a poor gambler but it's important for every gambler to understand risk management, this rule applies to both the rich and poor, a lot of people say gambling should only be for those that are rich, I don't really agree, if a poor should engage in gambling that person should stake Ten or five percent of what he earns so it won't be a big deal if it goes sideways,  being a rich gambler has some advantages one is the capability of recovering your lost funds after multiple trials which doesn't work everytime but it has a 50 percent chance of working out

Gambling isn't for profit, instead it's for entertainment. If you not feel happy or fun doing that, gambling isn't for you, as simple as that.

Of course the rich and the poor had different "threshold", that's why we need to calculate the money not only in amount, but in percentage too. That's why money management exist.

Money is precious; it doesn’t matter how much you lose. If it’s your hard-earned money, then definitely you will feel bad.
It's like saying someone must avoid gambling, travelling, going to cinemas etc because it's wasting money. I wonder how can someone be happy with such very strict life when they can afford that.
And this is something that should really be put up into their minds so that they wont really be finding themselves to be that delusional on the time that they would really be gonna dealing up with gambling.
If they are really just that sensible or be wary about on what gambling is all about then they wont really be ending up on having those kind of regrets specially into those people who are really just that poor or someone
whose really that on average people who do have only a sufficient amount of money. The only issue on here is that when you are really that dealing with gambling then you are really that expecting something positive.
This is why it would really be making you desperate on the time or moment that you havent been able to met up your expectations.

Losing is never been having that exemption. The only different thing on here is that financial conditions of a certain individual on which rich people wont really be minding that much since they do have
tons of money.Whereas, in compared into those people who do have that $5-10 bucks on which they are really that expecting something positive with their bankroll.
If you do find yourself having that small amount of money and its better to make use of spend it into more important rather than on wasting those amount into gambling.
You would really be rather buying something that benefits you rather than on throwing it out due to desperation.

TLDR

Don't use the phrase "the rich and the poor" for comparison, as it's easy to conclude that the poor are always wrong. I mean, if you are poor, why would you gamble in the first place? Regardless of the amount, it's still going to hurt you because you are "poor." I think the proper phrase to use is "gamble what we can afford to lose." Regardless of our financial status, as long as we can afford to lose what we are gambling, we should have the same feeling whether we are rich or poor.
You are right, that's just the case if you know you can't bear losing any amount of money you are gambling with then the person is just starting because it is a 50/50 kind of chance in as much as little as the money is, it will definitely matter to the gambler because of one's financial strength; therefore it isn’t a matter of whether one is poor or rich.

When someone is poor and is gambling, This is where you get this set of gamblers that attached this kind of emotions to the money they are betting with, especially when you don't have any source of income and you are risking the little one you have, it would be like they've lost millions when one lost any amount of money on the process.

Regardless or your status, poor or rich, one should always risk according to their financial strength.

All hands are not equal so at every stage of life there is a particular range of amount that if we lose will hurt so bad as well as a range of amount that we can be able to let go if lose. Even the rich you see, would feel pain if they had lost some certain amount. However, $1k is not an amount that a rich gambler will freak out if he eventually loses it in a bet. Every gambler must know their limit and extent to how much they should gamble in a day whether they are rich or poor.

Money is precious; it doesn’t matter how much you lose. If it’s your hard-earned money, then definitely you will feel bad. Gambling is all about luck; hence, we need to make ourselves aware that if we gamble, then there is a high possibility of getting into losses. Hence, we need to take the risk accordingly and bet with the amount that we can afford to lose. Now regarding poor and rich, if the gambler is rich, then I don’t think he does gambling in a serious tone. According to me, a poor person gambles when there is a necessity of money, and on the other hand, a rich person gambles for the purpose of recreation.
Both can gamble for the purpose of entertaining themselves, but it is true that those that are rich can do this more easily as not only they have more money at their disposal, something that is obvious, but also because the rich know how to earn a lot of money, so even if they were to lose an amount of money that was too high for themselves, as long as they are not really addicted, they can always stop gambling and concentrate on making all the money they have lost through their businesses and investments.

As long as both the poor man and the rich man uses the amount of money that they can afford to lose, I don't think that any of them will not be happy after losing. It is when a poor man is gambling for profit that he will be forced or tempted to use more than he can afford to lose and that will affect him mentally because he does not have much.

Same applies to a rich man but the difference is that if a rich man losses more than he can afford to lose, he can still recover his losses from his ongoing business after a while but a poor man will not recover any loss.

So I am trying to pick some statics to understand between the poor and the rich who gambles more for profit.
Everyone gambles for whatever reason best known to them. And this reason may be more than one. I believe that one can gamble for profit and also gamble as a form of recreation. I also believe that low income earners who I want to believe that the OP meant by saying "poor" and the high income earners who the OP meant by saying "rich" can gamble for profit. I won't even bring drake into this conversation because I consider him as a misguided irresponsible gambler who is also gamble as a form of business. Because he surely gets some commission whenever he posts his betslip that shows the betting company.

If he is a poor person why should he gamble already knowing this is luck maybe he loses the $5 bet you said is more important, why do poor people gamble because they hope to change their fate after winning but you know this will not be easy it will only get worse if poor people insist on gambling especially when $5 can make food for him.

The rich person obviously still has a lot of sources of income, when he starts the pleasure of gambling and then loses it will not change their finances and can even recover again in the near future, but for the poor person he has to work hard to make a living for himself alone is difficult.

So do not force gambling if you are not willing to lose, even though the goal is for profit but it is not certain that you will win.

What you have pointed out about rich people gambling when compared to those who do not have a stable source of income is true, it could be even called common sense. However, It had already been recorded people who have a lot of money still could end up losing much of it because of gambling, unfortunately, it happens because they allow greed to take over them and their feelings. Some may even stop giving attention to their businesses and their sources of income, because of much obsession they have accumulated from gambling.
So while it is still possible for the rich to gamble and suffer no consequences, they can get addicted as any other human being could and face a destiny they never imagined to be possible.

Gambling is gambling, and the same way a poor man who loses $5 to gambling will feel sad, that's the same exact way a rich man who loses $1k to gambling will also feel sad, because if both had followed the rule of gambling to gamble what they can both conveniently afford to lose, and then lost it, i no see reason why any of the two parties should be sympathize than the other, because that's how gambling works, they ought to have known that it is a game of unpredicted end, whose outcome mostly a product of luck.

Surviving is winning bro, surviving is winning.

When difficulty of life strikes hard you will do the unthinkable, in 2023 I was so sure that I won't tough a penny in my portfolio and here comes 2024, the unexpected happened in my country, every thing just went south, like really bad and I have no choice but to survive with my family, I had to took out a lot of money just to prepare us for the rest months of 2024 and into 2025.

Herr is my answer, either rich or poor there is always a limit to your capacity, stay within your boundary and you will be fine, step out of your boundary and you will be hit hard, it doesn't matter if you are rich or poor you need your own strategy to stay alive and survive even if things could go south.

As a gambler you need to set your own limit, the exact amount you can afford to lose when you are not lucky, discipline is a must here as its a bit hard to stay on your budget at times since you also want to win some money, understand the risks and you will be fine.

I think I've seen discussions like this in several other ongoing topics where the content is almost the same, in this case we are talking about self-acceptance between rich and poor people in facing a losing situation, there is actually no difference in it, or what I mean is the only difference is in terms of the amount, as you said OP that the $5 loss experienced by the poor person is an amount that is really insignificant for the rich person, or in other words the amount of $5 is a loss that is quite disturbing to the mental and psychological of the poor person, but not for the rich person who even though the amount is $1k, the reason is clear because of the difference in financial situations of the two people.

But if I am a rich person and a poor person gamble blindly without setting any limits then it is clear that they will lose all their money very easily, and also in my opinion even though rich people have more money which makes them have more opportunities to gamble than poor people but if for example they gamble blindly for like I said then it is clear that in a short time they will also run out of all their money, so I think of course in gambling no matter how good your financial situation is in the end you will lose money very quickly in gambling if you gamble blindly.

On the other hand yes you are right that getting involved in gambling without having a sustainable income such as a personal job can be dangerous and lead someone to various criminal acts to get money to fulfill their gambling habits, but still the approach you have must be accompanied by good limits, because even if for example you have a good job you will still experience a lot of pressure when you do not gamble in the right way, and other things gambling to earn income will always be a prohibited idea regardless of whether you are rich or poor.

$5 lost by a poor gambler is worth to him than $1K lost by a rich gambler
That's the difference between poor and rich in gambling, why is that...! The situation alone is different, especially with the results they get and the economy they have.

Those who are poor gamble with $5, the hope of winning is very high, they know how hard it is to get that $5, that amount of money is very valuable and worth it, In contrast to those who are rich, $1k is not something that is valuable to him, for example Drake is clear that for an actor, singer, producer, that amount of money is not valuable, he can earn in his current position 1 hour of millions of dollars, The easier it is to get money, the more worthless and worthless it is, the harder it is to get money, the more valuable and precious the money is, that's the difference between rich and poor if they lose at gambling.

Money is something worth for many people especially for poor gamblers. If they willing to use $5 to playing gambling, maybe they can't spend more money in gambling. That $5 is worth to him so he will be careful to use it in gambling but that will depends on the person because some poor gamblers can use more than that amount. That is because they are tempting with the amount of the money that they can win. If people know that they will difficult to profit from gambling, they will not rely on gambling to make money because that can cause them lose more money.

They will not playing gambling, no matter how much the amount instead will search for other ways to make money. They know gambling can be bad for them especially the risks of losing the money so they will stay away from gambling. But not with gamblers who still wants to make money from gambling because they will not care about the money they spend in gambling.

Well, that's nothing new to me, and it happens both with gambling and with money matters in general. You might be surprised to see a Ferrari and it turns out that the owner has spent less percentage of his annual income than you did buying a $25,000 car.

I don’t think poor people should bet their money on gambling just because it is not unnecessary or in no way shape or form the right thing to be putting money on. People who have money gamble because they probably have a lot or they just want to entertain themselves but when you are poor, it is better for the necessities in life like food or anything like that.

The problem is that it is often the other way around. The rich know that gambling is not a good way to earn money, they prefer to invest (usually), whereas in the poorer neighbourhoods there are more bookies and more lotteries are sold.

The number 1 rule in gambling is that, you should gamble with  what you can afford to lose. You shouldn't gamble your entire $5 and start's complaining afterwards, if the Drake that you sighted as an example, if he gambles with his entire savings and net worth on a single game, and maybe unfortunately he loses his bet, will he not go Bankrupt, of course he will.

So as a gambler, if $5 is the money left with you, instead of risking it all, why not use $3 to stake, should in case of any eventually, you will be left with $2 to go home with. Gambling is risk, but it should be calculated risk.

Let's assume that you are exaggerating a little when you talk about 5 dollars, because in reality even for a poor person it is not a lot of money. But 50 dollars is not a small amount of money for a poor person, in my country you can buy a lot of food for this amount, and such an amount is not easy to earn in a regular job.
And in comparison with the 50 dollars that the poor person lost, the loss of 1000 dollars for a rich person will really not be noticeable. As you correctly wrote about Drake.
