If I would be rich, I would start a casino and let other people gamble. Problem is: 50 million dollars is not rich, rich people laugh at you for that kind of money. You need much more money to start a casino in Vegas.
oh its a gambler dream Grin i'm not people kind like you,but its nice idea. i will stop gambling,but i just invest money on gambling site maybe Grin
start casino in vegas is really profitable,its must be done by gamble addict.

A lot of people here gamble to become rich, but some do it for fun.

The question is, if you wake up tomorrow with 50 million dollars, would you still gamble for fun, or would you forget about gambling and do other stuff? Personally I think I would still gamble. I do it now, and I know I realistically will never get rich off gambling, because I barely do it and I don't risk much money, just for fun sometimes, to test my luck.
So if I had a lot of money, I would do bigger gambles, but they would still enter in the "for fun" amount (for the new 50 million standard). For example, gambling 1K a month would be irrelevant, and winning with a 1K bet can give you big rewards if you are lucky. It would still be fun, in fact more fun, and it would be as non risky as it is now, in terms of going financially bankrupt.

well i gamble with my few $ that's left after i buy something, so we can say that i do this for fun,

so i would do same even if i would win lots of money,people that gambles for profit would stop, but gamblers that does it for fun won't

i agree, if you are only in it for the fun and don't plan on getting rich by gambling (which is not possible) then you don't quit if you get rich.

besides getting rich means you can really enjoy the game and don't care even if you lose money.

If I was rich because of the play of gambling, I will remain a gamble but with very little amount for my gratitude to gambling because it has made me wealthy. But if I were rich not because gambling game, for sure I will stop in gambling, because it could have been the thoughts of ambition alone is too high to do gambling and finally I lost all my wealth. Because if your ambitions are already possessing a mind all the way done to get the victory, but gambling need peace of mind and should remain consistent. If using the ambitions will certainly get the defeat.

Who doesn't love growing their money??? And who says Rich don't gamble???
They do, but they only bet which is worth nothing to them, they just don't care losing that much...
If I were rich, I would just do some business, develop some new genres such as cryptography only, and just stick to it...
Businesses are itself a gamble when you know that there are risks associated with everything...

if gambler gambles for fun only, then not matter how rich he will be, he will gamble anyway

and if gambler gambles for living, or to be rich, then when he'll win he will stop gambling i think, unless they would be addicted to it

I would still gamble for fun, because that is what I do now with it.  I am not going to change my life completely just because I won the lottery or whatever it might have been.  Gambling is meant for enjoyment, I might up my betting a little bit if anything!
I don't know how the objectives of the rich to playing gamble. because I have never become rich Tongue
so I can not feel it. but if I become rich maybe I'll try a few times to gamble
perhaps my goal was just having fun. yeah maybe

Some rich people dont know where to spend the money they have,some use drugs,and others sure will gambling with it,but they will enter into a road without no way out.I wouldnt never gambling something that is mine and is enought to live,and have pleasure meeting several places i wanna.

You have good point there, i agree rich people usually spend their money on drugs and alcohol. And actually gambling is more better than spend on drugs ad alcohol.

I think the rick still gamble but they do a very small percentage of their net worth.

Most gamblers gamble 100% of their entire paycheck.

Yeah they will gamble for fun and just to spend time, as rich people would surely love to visit physical casino to enjoy the fun of gambling physically rather then gambling it online.
i would definitely gamble too even if i had vast amounts of money i wouldnt gamble big money but i would do that

i wouldnt expect to make a lot of money and become even more rich i would just seek to get some good quality entertainment from casino games

If I was rich then no, I would not have to join any gambling site or casino and to gamble there, but I will start a factory or some other organization and will work there and earn more,
while sometimes it will be entertainment to visit any club or casino but not for gambling only to get entertained to meet people at there.

I think rich people are more addicted to gambling as even if they loose it won't make any difference to them as they have lot of money to spend and that is fun for them.

I dont think so, imo poor people are more addicted because from the start they want to be rich in short time but in fact they lose then they think how to recover and how to win. This make them cant stop gambling, because their desire to be rich.

Yes, the urge for instant wealth lure the poor into gambling. There is nothing wrong in instant wealth, but if the desire to achieve it already controls your actions, then this is bad. Worst if your way to achieve this is thru gambling. Instead of adding money to your wealth, gambling will just eat away all the money you have.
