Anyone can gamble whether you're poor or not, because even if you are poor you ca n still gamble as long as you have the money. For me, those who can play at the casinos are the average people because they are aware how the casinos works. I actually don't care if there are rich or poor, especially when I'm playing poker because as long as they have the chips then they can continue playing at there own expense.

But you didn’t get the point this doesn’t concern on our stands about poor or rich can play either casinos or street gambling but the question is who’s the majority of gamblers in the world?

And that clearly states from almost 200 answers here who’s more than 80% are voted “for Poor”

The question on the title just pop on my mind.
Are they poor or rich?
Remember the famous line on gambling?
"Only gamble a money you afford to lose". With that line we are really thinking of losing, the risk is still there.

So, what do you think on most gamblers now? Are the majority gamblers are rich or poor?

HOW TO KNOW IF A PERSON IS POOR/RICH?
- Now, it's now on you how you will judge a person if they are rich or poor, we have different criteria on how we judge/look on poor/rich people.

Since it is not likely that you are getting a straight answer we will have to take an educated guess, the amount of rich people among the population is low so it is unlikely they make the majority of gamblers, now it is also impossible for those that are poor to be the majority of gamblers, even if in many countries there is a significant amount of poverty you need some spare money to gamble and they do not have it, so most likely the middle class make the majority of gamblers since they have enough spare money and there are way more of them than rich people.

Regardless of life status both gamblers on their financial status could be poor or rich. Most of them played gambling doesn't matter whether you're a rich or poor person. That's an individual perspective in which a person who has the passion to play and bet for gambling actually desires to do.

Well I guess status does matter in gambling as if you are poor and you can it afford gambling how you will make investment at any site you must have sufficient amount so you can gamble. After investing money a gambler will become rich or poor if they will put effort and gamble properly so they will surely win and become rich.

The status will not be a matter if you play online gambling as the owner doesn't see you played in your home. But if you go to the real casino, I think they want you to use good looking clothes, so they will allow you to enter the places. But I guess some casino will leave you like that and they will allow you to gamble with your money. All they think is you have the money to gamble, and as long as you have the money, you could playing gambling.

That would help to really determine the voice of the majority, and actually I have voted and based on my observation by reading the replies from this thread, majority are saying that most gamblers are poor... this is actually obvious as the gambling industry is not only compose of legal business but there are also a lot of illegal business and even in our own house, we can gamble with our friends and relatives.

I think I forgotw something on the topic.
A poll, RICH v.s. POOR.
I should've added a poll for the topic, btw, I just added it, a little bit late, hoping that they will still visit this thread and vote.
Let's wait for more votes so that we can get the majority answer and will help us to think why they are rich or poor.
It has only two option, no more dramas like 'middle of poor and rich', 'neutral', 'none of the above', etc.

Vote wisely!

I don't really understand statistics,
in the environment around me, only rich people play gambling, whereas poor people are only busy working to fulfill their daily needs,
IMO, the majority of gambling players are rich people because they have money and lots of time to play gambling.

People who go to gamble in Las Vegas, Monte-Carlo or Macau, of course they are rich, and since they are frequently seen on TV and specialized YouTube channels, one can get the wrong impression that most of gamblers are rich. What we don't see is over 90% of gamblers who play in places where no cameras around, no hot girls pouring free Champagne or Cognac, nothing. It's usually dim lit places with dirty slot machines, and no one films those places because they are not attractive. And if it's not slots, it's street gambling like on the pic below:

Trust me, they are not rich.

I totally agree with you, I'm sorry for not having merit to send for your answer but you deserve it. Most gamblers are poor people living in third world countries in Africa, Asia and South America, betting on cock fights or things like that.

They are gambling in the street, so I believe they aren't rich.
I'm just curious what type of gambling they are playing as I have no clue by looking at the pictures alone.

Anyway, I'm also a believer that majority of the gambles are poor, I can prove that as in our community there are a lot of gamblers and majority of them are in a lower class if we based on income they earn.

My wild guess is that most of them are poor. If we count lottery then it will turn out I am correct because it's technically gambling and millions of people are hoping to the huge jackpot so they can finally change their lives from nothing to everything that they like then they will have. But some people would argue that lottery is not gambling. But we all can agree on one thing that there are more people that do get poor than getting rich in gambling

Lottery doesn't have an addiction touch to it, unlike "proper gambling"

Of course, some people may be addicted to lottery as well, but it is not common or as common as addiction to dice and other casino games. Further, I don't think that you will see a lot of beggars in Las-Vegas, the gambling capital of the world, which means not all gamblers are as poor as church mice. Though I agree that gambling is unlikely to make you richer, so the overall tendency must be easy to see (from rags to riches and back again)

It's impossible to tell who has the greater number, even if there's a study I don't think it will be reliable, there are kinds of gambling for poor and there are for riches and people will get hooked on gambling because of association, but if you ask me there are more rich gambling than poor one, because they have the money to spare.

We are not talking about the amount spends fo gambling but the question is the volume of players and that’s why we are surely about the Poor people
And most specially we are not talking about online gambling but the totality of gamblers from all nations and from all Betting types
So technically it’s the Poor people who’s more engaging in gambling than rich and middle class

About spare money to play gamble, maybe only rich people who did that. In fact, a lot of poor people do gambling and aim for win so they can be rich. That is why a lot of people agree if who do gambling is a lot of poor people. Because it is which already happen. Rich people who do gambling is people who have spare money, but not resist that it happens too.

The rich people are the ones who understand what is gambling and how its done.
They are gambling with their spare money, so if they will lose, it would not affect their living, they are doing it for fun, i mean purely fun.

On the other hard, the poor always are so optimistic in winning despite the fact that their strategy is not so effective and they don't play the right game when player have a chance to win in the long run, most of the popular games are games with house edge and this is what attracts the poor since its return is very promising but they failed to evaluate their chances of winning.

it's hard to find someone who makes money in gambling starting from the bottom , here we are talking about a big number of money that allow you to create a huge busniss or something else , so the average gamblers are those who used to gamble for fun or habbit and then there is the rich people who started with a huge amount and most of them get all busted

Quote from: ?? on ??

Some of the gamblers are in the middle families but most of them are the one who can afford to lose some money. And i as a user of gambling site earning profit in some events of the admins and games but when it comes to betting, i usually lose and since it is a gambling game you need to take risk.

Losing the money in gambling will be the risk that we could get. We cannot do anything to prevent the loss, but we can prevent on how much money we should use to gamble. No matter if we are rich or poor when we were playing gambling we should think about the loss so we can know how much we should use the money.

Besides that, we should leave the gambling site when we know we don't have a chance to win the games. That will be the best way for us to prevent a big loss. It will difficult to do if we are getting involved too deep in gambling games because all we want to do is to win the games. If they are rich gamblers, they will not have a problem to lose some money. But for people who don't have much money, then it's a problem for them.

Most of the gamblers are greedy in betting. When they are losing so much money they trying to recover it again but still losing more. That's why when i start to lose money i'm ending my game and waiting for some events that i can earn profit again.

Gambling is losing or earning of money. That's why if you can't take a risk then don't gamble.

Well, that is true. That is because the gamblers want to make money from gambling. That is what you need to do when you cannot win in the gambling games, so you don't lose more money. Many gamblers cannot realize this, and they play more and more, and that only makes them get more losses. If that is the case, then we called the gamblers are a rich person because they can always play gambling.

Greedy is one thing that always with us, no matter we win or lose that thing will stay inside us. When we can see the chance in the gambling, the greedy will tells us to continue and say that the next round will be our winning. You need to be careful if you hear this, and it's better to quit the game as soon as possible.

I, like many other users, think that gambling is played by people regardless of their income. In Las Vegas, even beggars play casinos in the hope of ever winning a large sum of money and changing their lives forever.
