Topic: In Your Country Who Gamble More? Young Ones or Elderly Ones - page 3. (Read 1565 times)

The discussion here is that countries differ because what happened in one country is different in another country and the policies are different. In some countries gambling policies are against young people below 18 or 24 years while while some might not. In my country it is not that young people from 15+ are not playing gamble they play and I have seen them in many occasions but in the particular location I am right now, the older people gambling more.

If I compare about my country, young children are more attracted to gambling than old people in my country. In my country gambling is not legal so old people can't participate in gambling in public places and in this case old people can't participate in online gambling because most of the old people are not skilled with electric devices /mobile phones, pc. Now coming to the younger generation as they are very proficient with electronic devices they are more attracted to online gambling. Although gambling is not legal in my country but online gambling cannot be controlled by the government that's why the younger generations are more attracted than the old people to online gambling through mobile or computer without complying with the local laws. This attraction is affecting our Guardian community greatly and is currently a matter of heavy thought in the Guardian community.

In fact, only a casino that has mandatory verification can have such statistics, only in this case can you find out real statistics about which players are more active in this particular casino. If a game is available in it without mandatory verification, then even the casino will not know the age criterion of their players, not to mention strangers who do not have access to the resource.

You can only guess, or draw your own conclusions based on your observations, and I don’t know how to do this if, for example, we are talking about an online casino. For example, in my region there are only online casinos left, there are very few places where you can come and play, and even there it is impossible to collect any statistics on players, and I am very doubtful that players are interested in doing this, they are only interested in the game.

And one thing I could add to this again, is basically the way the world has evolved so greatly and I feel it has even left some of the old folks behind and the younger ones are the ones glowing and basking in this modern world changes and playing online gambling with crypto is one of those things which the youths are more active than the adults. So basically I could say this as a general that the youth of this generation are more into gambling than the adults and I believe this to even be a general sense. One of the ways to which this influence is being even spread more actively I guess is true the social media influencers and social media platforms and we all know the grades of people who are more active there so no need to spell it all out again.

Oh yes, when we come to classify it the way you just did, I can also attest to the fact that the old people are more into physical and olden days kind of gambling like the playing of Ludo, Scrabbles and Whots. In our communities, especially when you go to slums and nooks. They have more old people who have retired and have practically nothing to do rather than sit on chairs and gamble.

But the younger ones are more into gambling, generally as some of them participate in the same kind of games but also are into digital gambling games including casino games. Young people are more into football gambling amongst other sports. Giving these kinds of gambling an edge over the old ones in our communities today.

Well everyone has said their opinion and I can't debunk those who disagree with me and also against the thread. Making comment is a personal choice and nobody force you. And the question is very simple and if you k ow that your country nobody gamble then there is no need to come and attack anyone here just on the low key to observe. I created this thread base of the experience I got or seen in my country and precisely in my location. This thread is the fact of real life. And those who have seen can testify.

This is also completely normal in my country. The elderly really need playgrounds or centers that gather them together to entertain themselves, and gambling is also one of their hobbies. However, in my country, old people often gamble through chess playing (Chinese chess, chess), they win and lose with money and they can sit all day to play without getting bored.

Whether young people or the elderly gamble more, in my opinion, is difficult to determine. Because each age group's approach to gambling is different. Older people often play in traditional forms rather than online like young people. If they play on online platforms, perhaps we will have more specific statistics, but if older people play in the traditional way, we cannot make statistics, and from there we cannot compare who gambles more.

In terms of gambling time, I think older people will probably spend more time than young people. They have more time because they are no longer entangled with work, so they can freely spend more time gambling. In addition, elderly people often find it easy to find a community to play with because they have the same circumstances and have similar free time. Meanwhile, it is difficult for young people to find people to play with when they have free time because sometimes their friends are not as free as them and then they often go to online platforms to gamble.

Old people gamble more Im pretty sure but it might be a greater extent of small things like lotto or bingo or small card games between friends.  Young people are new to the industry and a hot target for gaining new customers in many industries gambling included.  

Younger players are more likely to gamble on a mobile with faster slot games or similar rather the more drawn out slower games.  The bulk of industry might be with middle to older age but the growth is with young people as a very attractive business.

For what I can tell the elderly are more inclined to gamble at a regular casino than at an online one, so while the young may dominate the online platforms, it seems to me the elderly dominate the traditional casinos which have existed for a very long time already.

So it is a challenge to know which one of them gamble the most, especially now that the elderly as a group are bound to increase at a faster rate than those that are young, and they have a great deal of free time at their disposal as well.

I think the youth as per the Young ones Gamble more on a steady base than the elderly ones,I said this because the rate at which the young ones use their devices to gamble online gives it an evidence cause most elderly ones don't have much time doing that and what they do mostly is playing this draft game you mentioned and they can spend time on it and still go back to their duties but the young ones don't mind staying at a devices for so long doing this and that which make them gamble more than the elderly.

So you think it's all natural, and they have to experience bitter experiences first to learn valuable lessons. for example, starting to manage finances, emotions and so on when gambling.
Yes, we have experienced it too, because we don't want it to happen again, we never really stop gambling, but rather minimize losses.

look at physical casinos and see how many old people are playing and how many young people are playing and you will realize that the number of young people who are playing is much greater than the number of old people. This is because the number of old people is much smaller than the number of young people in most countries in the world, meaning that in all the things that happen, such as football stadiums, basketball stadiums, beaches, casinos, you see many young people than old people. . the few old people prefer to have fun watching TV and reading the newspapers. There are few cases of old people who are very active in physical casinos.

For example, rich old people or millionaires like to play in physical casinos, but it's not something they do every day, they do it when they have free time. while most young people play at the casino every day. In my country for example, in physical casinos I would venture to say that more than 90% of the people who are playing are young people and are playing every day. For the youth of my country and other countries around the world, staying at home reading newspapers and watching TV is tiring and irritating. they want to have as much fun as they can every day

I think everyone gambles. Both the young and the old and the only different is the younger ones gambling in the online platforms more than the olders while the older people also gamble for the game the op mentioned than the younger ones. Younger generation digitalize the gambling sector but the older ones still maintain the ancient methods of gambling. It is the younger gamblers that are now old and the new generation of gambler Ms will also pass to the old age. So I will say both of them gamble to satisfied themselves. Gambling is not a thing for the young or the old and everyone gamble. And as I said in the Op, in my location the elderly gambling on the local games more then the younger people who always engaged themselves in the online casinos.

Well thought out and analyzed comment, and I actually agree with you on all that you said, and to add, I am actually wondering which set could be better players between the oldies and the young ones? It's a personal question which I actually want to answer based on all and what you have said.

Older players are better gamblers from all indications, whether addicted or not, I can even say for certain that older gamblers who are addicted to gambling know how to manage their gambling addiction much more better than the younger generation, Old players know which game they are good at and have the most chances of winning, due to their long exposure and experience in the field of gambling, and over all, older players really know how to have fun gambling even while they are chasing for a win, this is much better than the younger generation that seems to be always after nothing else than money and more money.

I think the general trend is towards older players, primarily because they've worked out mechanisms to earn money that they continue to feed into gambling or have come in to money from various other sources. A younger player will generally be paid less in their jobs and potentially play more recklessly, meaning they are tapped out of money more quickly. At the far end of the age spectrum, the oldest players have formed a pretty hardcore addiction by that point and may even be retired, so they have chosen to spend the most of their free time betting instead. They've probably worked out tricks to make their money stretch much longer, so they can fill up the time easier and last until late.

Very common approach into those young people who would really be that too aggressive and loving to engage on things on which they do seem that beneficial for them and since gambling is one of the things that could make you money then it would be normal that they would really be having that impression which is far more active and more impulsive than to those older ones on which we know that when it comes to gambling then losing is much more than with winning. Lack of experience and awareness will really be leading into disaster until they would really be able to have those experience and then sooner or later they would really be able to tell into themselves that they should really be gambling out moderately and this is something that everyone would really be needing to do when they do gamble. So its a normal approach i would say.
that realizations will really be there but still thats a big what if. 

In Africa, you will hardly see physical casino, in my country before you will see a physical casino, you will probably would have counted 1000 physical betting shop and those shops are sport bets and for this reasons, elders don't have a way to play casino games and not all of them love playing sport games, most of them don't even watch football or any other sports games like the Asian people do most often.

We have more of young people gamble and the reason why we have much of them in number is because of financial stability, a lot of them have more bills they can handle and the only alternative way for them to make money is to play for their passion, some of them are good in predictions and they used this as a means to make money from gambling.

Well, I think you are right. But when it comes to the young and old who gambles more question, I think the young are the ones that gamble more than the old people. Most young gambler don't have a lot of money to gamble but they makes sure to gamble even with their little money. But the old ones are always going to work in the morning and coming back late and most atimes  they get tired after having a stressful day at work, but when it comes to weekends they gamble. And the only games the old people bet on is football, after predicting, they stake and wait for the games to conclude before they continue and bet when they have the chance to bet. But the young gamblers ( the youths) most of them don't have a good job and some don't have a job at all but they spend most of their time on gamble hall.

The simple answer to the question the OP posed is the younger generation. Youngsters are more inquisitive than others. They prefer luxuries to enjoy life and they strive for quick earning. And for this they think of gambling as a platform from which huge amounts of money can be earned. Although this idea is wrong but these tendencies can be seen in them. Gambling is not supported by the government in our country because of which those who are older or wiser do not want to be gambled. But the youngsters are totally different from them and they are very interested in gambling.

That's the effect of gambling, it's not going to go away anytime soon because the old and young are getting addicted to it, and we all know how habits are when they start to form, they will eventually take root and in the worst case, become and addiction. I think that I see more young people but I don't think not too young though that's gambling more than the elderly, I sometimes pass by some gambling places that are supposed to be filled with people that are of the old age, back then there's a lot of them but now, it's a little bit different because I've seen some of them already on the midrange of age so I'd lean more on the fact that there's more young gamblers now than old gamblers.
