If i am rich, i will confidently answer it no because you can give help or donations to poor people instead of losing it in gambling. By the way i am already rich and no need to become richer.

I really appreciate you, I hope you will do the same which you have posted in the reply of this thread, this world need a lot of people like you, so that there will be peace everywhere in the world.

Which is not possible, different people thinks differently and that is the rule of the world, so every rich people starts thinking  this way then no country will be poor, but unfortunately that is not true.

Gamble it, why not? not all of it though just a fraction Grin

Why? to quench my primal needs of winning
well, a lot of money will not be wiped out if gaming with stakes a bit, you just need to control yourself so that you can add to the money you have from gambling, but I guess rich people who play gambling was just spent, so win or lose them does not matter

Good for you. You have a better perspective of what to do and what not. Not a lot of people will choose to help or donate. Most will choose to buy something that can entertain them like gambling. But you are different.

Well that's good to hear, but not all thinks like you think, as majority of rich people have habit of spending on bad things just to have fun and for the sake of entertainment.

Gambling is very stressful, especially when you lose everything..This line when is crossed it is to late for saving soul..So if you love to gamble, just use math, and don't invest everything you have, gamble with small amounts and everything will stay in the field of game- acceptable loss. With gamble you can lost fortune if you don't use head.

Some people manage losses better than other. If you are a good gambler and by god gambler I mean a person that can take loses and don't go insane, you can have a decent amount of fun and get a decent amount of profits as well, and if you lose you will not go insane because that's what makes a good gambler above everything else.

That's true and if you are a good gambler then one or two losses will not make any big difference, as he knows that he can recover it next time.

Gambling itself is not bad, but how you handle it can be bad because if you are spending to much money in gambling and you will lose than you can be poor and that will be bad.
If you are rich you have to opportunity that you can gamble more, but just only play with small amounts.

In my Opinion gambling will become bad in the way people think if a person is thinking about the money they will get from it then it can turn out bad, but if he will think about the risk in playing it then I think that person will eventually becomes very cautious in his actions in playing gambling.

Yeah of course but I would not gamble much. I would just gamble for fun and take some of my friends with me. But I would not gamble because I feel like I have to gamble. Just for fun is good enough.
I agree, when if I was rich then I would still gamble but with the aim of seeking pleasure only and not looking for profit. So I will not have the addictive and most likely I will use the remaining money to other purposes for use in gambling. Because I didn't want to be poor because of addiction to gambling. Pleasure in gambling is enough to dispel thoughts.

Rich people are among the biggest gamblers!
Gambling is not a poor vs. rich thing, it's a personality thing.

Yeah, that's right, it's a personality thing, but I believe that if it came true, I think it would bring changes to our lives..IMO, it's not really about rich and poor, gambling I think could be inherit from their parents..

Gambling is fun but I think it will not be fun if you are rich so I would answer this question with a no honestly because I think there is no enjoying part anymore.
Its nice to spend dollars but with gambling you want to win money and if you are rich you do not need that money anymore..

Everyone wants to win. And most people are greedy. This two will satisfy that even if you are rich, you will still be tempted to gamble. The feeling that you get when yoh win can be addictive. That is why, even if a person is rich he will still gamblebif he was a gambler before. He will still want to have more money and he will crave for that feeling when he wins.

To be honest, it is not stressful if you are only gambling the funds that you can afford to lose. You should not have gambling in the first place if you do not know how to use your funds smartly.

I think that is true, you should never gamble if you cannot afford it, it would not be worth it and you will lose most likely also money that you cannot afford.
If I were rich I would still gamble because I could gamble without risks and fully for the enjoying part no more profit part is included.

I wont gamble ever if I was rich because the basic aim of is to become rich at any point.
you think after you're rich you will not regret and sad when they lost in gambling?
I think they are rich or not. they will still be sad when they lost in gambling dude.
do not forget that gambling can make you poor in a moment


Especially if you bet big and you lose. You are rich and you can afford to bet big, but you lose. Depression can sometimes sets-in in those moments. And that will destroy any person, rich or poor.  That is bad and can destroy a family if left uncheck. So to avoid it, avoid gambling whether your rich or poor.
