I have had a friend who gambles because he does not have money. I mean whenever he sees the property he wants to buy maybe let's say a shoe or clothes that he wants to acquire for himself. He now go and gamble in order to acquire that very property.
But whenever he has money on him, he does not remember to gamble. He only gambles when he need money to do something.
After atudying his type of lifestyle, I understood that his problem was not just gambling for entertainment, he needs a better source of income and when he is financially stable, he will say goodbye to gambling. There a lot of people like that when they have good source of income that will make them leave comfortable, they will say goodbye to gambling.

A good number of gamblers gamble for the sake of money that they view gambling as a possible channel by which they can escape their impoverish condition by way of been lucky to win a life changing amount. They're not in it for fun or the entertainment, it's only those that are rich that gamble for fun making the money side of it an added bonus.
The behavior of your friend only interprets that he knows what he's in for in gambling and peradventure he's to make a huge win someday then it's certain gambling will only be a thing of history for him.

A lot of people usually gamble because they need money and sometimes gambling is the only way they see to earn profit. We can't blame them because maybe it's their only choice and they are too desperate to have money. But again, this is not advisable because they are in high risk in losing everything they have. In my case, I only use my free money for gambling and swore to myself not use my money that are reserved for important things.

I have done it. Money is the prime objective with which we're valued as well as things were happening around. When there is requirement of money, automatically our minds will think of the easiest way and the same moves them towards gambling. Few will be successful while majority of the gamblers will be losing.

Well, as long as we all are here, and as gamblers, I don't think there be any among us who can boldly confess that he or she has never gambled for money, like me for example, i am not that regular in gambling, and when I do gamble, I try to as much as possible make sure my number one objective of gambling is just to have fun, but then, I can not deny the fact that there are other times when i am in serious need for money, and i do have some change to spare, that is money I don't mind losing for a bigger amount of money, i do take my chances in gambling for money, though i make sure to always be conscious enough not to do this often, for doing this often is one of the ways to become addicted to gambling.

So for me, gambling for money is not a bad thing, as long as the gambler is conscious enough not to allow that lead to desperation and gambling addiction.

Sometimes doing gambling were just using "having fun" as an excused in hoping to increase the money we're betting. I kept telling myself that I came here to have fun, but deep down I admit that there's a thinking of "please make me win so I could but any sht I want". so starting low after winning it will just increase and keep increasing the bet. Then I haven't realized I was stick to it as if I forgot my goal to just double up my money then I bounce. Of course after winning a lot gambling also took it back which I also wanted to recover my loss. It was just the realization after the game that once I tried recovering my loss, it would just lead to addiction. Gambling is really based of on luck because once it gives us a taste of it, we will keep hoping that whenever we gamble, it will side on us which it ain't.

We can't blame them because maybe it's their only choice and they are too desperate to have money.

Life is not that unfair to have rendered us with a single or no opportunity at all, we all have different timing to effectively utilize our own opportunity as it comes, most of those in this category are too going on a one way forward direction, they have to think and reason well for many possible means to earn a living and get money and not to tie down on a single approach that is not working over time.

Everything I know is that if someone is desperate for money, gambling isn't the activity he should be looking for, because gambling isn't a job or source of income, rather it's just an entertainment activity for people who already have jobs and sources of income, so they can spend money on it with some chance of growing their funds.

I really can't say if life is fair, unfair or if opportunities are disponible for everyone in some scale, but at same time it's common sense that gambling won't work as a miraculous pill towards wealthy for everyone who bets. So, people who still has this kind of wrong mentality should be blamed for their actions.

If the person just has money to eat, then go eating and forget about gambling, otherwise it's likely they will get hungry...

I am not forbidding everyone to gamble but I would also like to remind that gambling would be better not to do if it is only for profit because gambling cannot be used as a source to improve the economy and this will only make it miserable in the end.

Yes, it's true that gambling cannot be used as a source of income to make a living, let alone a place to find wealth, the risk of gambling is far greater than what we imagine, so don't gamble if you still have that mindset, because in the end it will be easy to lose when gambling and can make someone become a gambling addict because they experience that defeat.

Always remember that the dealer will always win, so don't think that gambling can bring in money and become a source of income because that won't be possible, there are many risks that must be understood so that you can understand when you experience defeat, let alone lose in a row until the money runs out. change the mindset to be healthier, make gambling just a place to find entertainment.

Some people still think that gambling can provide big profits instantly and this is also what keeps them in gambling. It is this mindset that must be corrected that gambling is not profit and a place to make a living. Since ancient times, gambling was actually "entertainment".

Our loss is the bookies' win. They bookies also have families to provide a living for and they also have employees to be paid every month. If they continue to give wins to gamblers, it's impossible.
And it's important for us to continue to think that gambling is entertainment, not profit. a healthy mindset is the key for us to be able to control the gambling activities that we do.

So don't ever make gambling our main income. however we must have a permanent job or a business to run to make ends meet.

Gambling is not a business or venture that earn us money or that we take profit from like we do with our business enterprise, however when there's an opportunity to earn from it, we should not denied ourselves from it, but taking it as a means for economy survival may not be a perfect decision because of uncertainties surrounded with gambling and the risk of loosing money each time we bet, there's no assurance for winning.

...

So my question is, is the percentage of the rich gambling lower than the middle and lower class?

it is true that the number of rich people who gamble is less than the middle and lower class. the reason is because the number of rich people globally is clearly less than the middle and lower class. another reason is that most of the middle and lower class tend to dream of becoming rich by gambling because that is the most rational way for them to get money and become rich.

rich people also have a different mindset compared to the middle and lower class. they tend to think that to earn money they need to be able to manage their assets, expand connections, and invest more. while the middle and lower class they tend to think that with luck from gambling maybe they will get a lot of money which can make them rich overnight.

that is the reason why the middle and lower classes are more numerous in casinos or online gambling platforms, because they have the wrong mindset that most gamblers even gamble with their limited money which they should use for their various needs.

The house might often win, but there are smart people out there who've made it work. Look at the moguls in Vegas and Atlantic City; it's not all about luck! You're making it sound as if everyone who walks into a casino becomes an addict and loses everything, which is just an oversimplification
Gambling, like anything in life, requires strategy and discipline. Those who lose big? They're likely the ones who go in blind without a plan. To outright dismiss gambling as merely entertainment is naive. While I'd never encourage someone to make it their primary income source, painting it entirely as a villain isn't fair either. It's all about a smart approach and self-discipline

I think that there is nothing to profit from self discipline when playing games of luck.The moment you enter a casino you enter explicitly to make money and no strategy will make you win anything in games of luck like slot machines except huge amount of luck.No matter what plan you have the maximum you will do you will minimize lost amounts of money but overall in the long run will not make you any good.So the smartest approach is to stop gambling with games of luck and trying skill games like poker to have any chance of winning in the long run.I am talking all of this from my personal experience as someone who has gambled since the years 2000.

This is actually the most extreme way to do it but there are still many people who do it because they only see the positive side that if they are lucky they will even get very big money from it which makes them not think about the worst and most likely about the risk of losing that must be accepted.
It is important to realize that casinos are also a business and the croupiers are the ones who benefit the most (because no one wins from the croupiers) but there are still many naive people who do not look in this direction just because of their ambition thinking that gambling is one of the ways that they think is the most appropriate.

I am not forbidding everyone to gamble but I would also like to remind that gambling would be better not to do if it is only for profit because gambling cannot be used as a source to improve the economy and this will only make it miserable in the end.

If lucky, they will get a lot of money. But most of them will experience defeat and spend money on gambling. That's why they also have to consider the risk of loss that must be accepted so they can control themselves to avoid losing money. And we still can't beat the casinos as bookmakers because that is their business and even if we can win it will be our luck and nothing more.

People can gamble whenever and wherever they want, but they must be able to give an adequate portion for gambling and not overdo it. And they shouldn't think of gambling as a source of income because that won't work for most people. Better to just think of gambling as entertainment.

Well that's right, you said the right thing about it. I'm sure everyone including non-gamblers and especially gamblers are sure about this, no one can earn a steady income just by gambling, it's impossible and if it can be done it will only apply to those bookmakers. I honestly never thought that there are some of them who have that mindset, if you have that mindset and then believe in it then I'm sure the downfall will be upon you. It makes no sense that someone can make a consistent income from gambling by just relying on luck in it, winning is a gift and the gift will not always come unless the luck comes.
So start to think healthy, gambling is created just to entertain when we feel bored or fill the spare time and in return we will get a prize, don't chase the prize too much because there will be a lot of money you sacrifice there.

Sometimes people are risk takers even though they have needs they will pursue their wants one example of it is those people who don't are in the middle to low class and they keep playing gambling even if they can not sustain their living from their perspective to hope to win a large amount but not it always happens in playing gambling always the house wins the game and the result is they didn't manage to hit the jackpot, lose their money and seek for a loan makes them to have debt.

In a game, of course, there are winners and losers, and if you play gambling and lose, then it is not the right solution to take a loan. This will certainly make the problem more complicated. If you have lost a large amount today, it's a good idea to have enough gambling for today, because today is not a lucky day for you, you better use another day to gamble, if you keep pushing for money loans then that will be very difficult detrimental to you.

I just think someone gambles because they need money instead of multiplying money at gambling but when they bet and lose they are looking to borrow money to continue gambling.
Wouldn't it be better if you really need money, you don't need to gamble, but borrow money from a bank or anyone, rather than having to gamble, which is not necessarily lucky to win.
So sometimes it feels strange that a gambler who needs money wants to double his money but instead throws money at gambling and then borrows money to gamble again, or does needing that money just as an excuse to cover up addiction.
But I think it because of greed because if you really need money, you don't need to gamble, it enough to borrow large amounts of money using any collateral, but unfortunately gamblers, when they need money, actually want large amounts of money to get instantly by betting, but don't remember if they need money.

But you dont seem to grasp the complexity of this thinking. People borrow money to "chase losses." The range is huge!
So players should just take bank loans? This oversimplifies money and why some people can acquire loans. Abuse is a significant part of it, but blaming "greed" for everything a gambler does is foolish.
Many gamblers comprehend risk and reward, despite impressions. Adrenaline, uncertainty, and planning make it more than money. You might need to understand more about gaming's multifaceted world and its many players!
