Topic: Most of gamblers are rich or poor? - page 6. (Read 1046 times)
Its not an issue when you are a rich or a poor person to become a gambler. And it's not an important when you are a rich or a poor person. One thing for sure that we need being as a gambler is..you have a money to invest and to play in gambling site. It's up to you how when you grow it.
I don't think we still need to ask this since we all know that even they are poor or rich, their status does not matter, what matters is that they should be responsible and will not be pushed to be greedy with this. Rich can go poor and poor can still be poorer.
I don’t think you can pigeon hole gamblers as poor or rich. Just like in all walks of life people/gamblers come from all kinds of different backgrounds. Some gamblers are rich, some are poor & many are stupid who lose everything trying & failing to get rich.

If we define rich as those with more than US$1 million in assets, then most gamblers are definitely not rich, because the rich make up less than one percent of world population, while according to this research
Quote from: https://www.gambling.net/statistics.php
... a group of researchers from Washington University at St. Louis did a study on gambling rates and problem gambling in 2005. Their best estimate came to a total of 1.6 billion people gambling at some point during a given year, with over 4.2 billion having gambled at some point in their lives.
more than 20% of world population can be considered gamblers.
Maybe you will be amazed but I'd say that most of them aren't really poor. I have experience with casino service providers and sometimes I was checking chats on tables. In most cases there are positive conversations. From my understanding, usually a persons who write offensive words are poor people because they lost or even on win, for example: I win bitch, you fool, now I have to go.
But there are a lot of persons who enjoy gambling with dealers and write something similar when lose: Oh, not my day, goodbye, have a great night.

It doesn't really matter whether they are poor or rich.
Despite them being poor, they still find ways to gamble. In our country, it might be cards or the usual cockfight.
I think the only difference they have is the places they go to or gamble to. Most of the rich gamblers are in the casino while poor people usually goes to cockfight arenas, there are rich people there too but you get the idea.

In other words, gambling appeals to all kinds of people. Gambling does not represent any particular social status. In my country, gambling pervades the entire archipelago. Rich and poor alike are gambling. Most of the elites are found in exclusive gambling resorts and casinos while the poor are found in the neighborhood.

It's hard to know whether gamblers are rich or poor, but they certainly have the money to play gambling and think they will be able to get more money to continue gambling.
There must be some who are rich because of gambling or otherwise poor and even bankrupt because of gambling, all I know is that people who have gambling houses or online gambling can get rich because they are able to profitable from every gambler.

Is there a way we can tell?
What I can say comes from my first hand knowledge and observation around my country. I would say most of the gamblers here are poor. That is a fact that does not have to be supported by an official statistics. Everyone can readily look around in this poor nation full of gamblers and one can easily conclude that the majority of the gamblers here are poor. But that does not mean to say that their being poor has something to do with their being a gambler, or vice versa. Although, for a fact, many of the poor in this forsaken country are betting on lotteries with the hope of getting away from their abject condition in life.
I think you are right .There is no way we can know if gamblers are generally rich or poor. We can only say based on the few people we see around us and it is not enough to know if it is applicable with all gamblers.What I can say comes from my first hand knowledge and observation around my country.

If I am to say by the number of gamblers I have seen so far, I would say that all gamblers are rich because I have never met any gambler that is poor. But, one thing am not sure of is if they really get their money from gambling alone. That someone is a gambler does not mean they get all their income from gambling, there are a number of people that are already doing well but only gamble for entertainment. Seeing this kind of people will make many come into conclusions that there is money in gambling or that gamblers are rich.
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.

For my experience and what my gambler friends tell, they can say that the gambler is wealthy if they are a Highroller, always in the VIP lounge, the professional player ( as in you can watch them in the TV or any tournaments) and also depends on the place where they gamble. But in it comes with the poor you can't tell it easy, especially if you are playing against with them. For me, it's like a rich and regular gambler.
They are actually not poor because they have money to spend on gambling. I could say a person is poor if they don't have anything, they only have money but it only for their basic needs. People do gambling because they have, and actually they can afford to lose something. But I'd never say that majority of the gamblers are rich, they are probably at the middle class which they still have time to go around and enjoy their life. Not that billionaire or millionaire will go in the casinos cause this is might a threat to their life.
In general, most gamblers are those who belong to 3rd and middle class( IMO).

No matter if they are rich or poor, they still have money to gamble, and they will come back in the next days if they lost in that day. We don't know how rich are they because they don't want to tell us about how much money they have. We could say that they still coming back in the next day even if they cannot win the games.
Most gamblers will not think about the money they used in gambling, but I believe that some gamblers can limit their money to be used in the gambling. Maybe we have a big question about that, but we don't know the truth if they are rich or poor. Besides that, we could only see their activity in gambling, and if they spend huge money on that day, then they are a rich person.

most gamblers are rich obviously because only rich people can afford to gamble more or loose more or to simply spend more time in gambling but poorer ones will foccus on other things that they think worth it for thier time .
they can spend more time finding things to earn more than what they can loose when they play on a gambling but still there are those fewer ones that arent really rich enough or not really poor enough that plays gambling sometime .

Rich people are prone to gambling because they have the money to gamble, poor people depending on his location will be attracted to gambling because he wants to double his money, rich people can gamble in a long period because he has the means, poor people have limited funds to gamble, I can only guess rich people because they have the means and can gamble anytime, most of them had free time.
The question is most, so there are a lot of poor people because of gambling. We should know if only people who really chosen who can make living from gambling, because to be dicipline is not all people can do. That is why a lot of people who aim that gambling can really help their life and not expert in gambling games, usually end with lose all money, that things which make a lot of people poor.
There's no worldwide data that can tell us who gamble the most, rich or poor people, you can gamble even if you are rich or poor, your status in the society can stop you from gambling, I think it's more on the society if you live in a city where there are a lot of gambling casinos or betting sites, you are likely to get attracted to gamble, and another one is if you have a lot of friends who are into gambling you are likely to get attracted, irrespective if you are rich or poor.
Its hard to distinguished between rich and poor actually and same as you said no matter what status in life you do had, you were able to play gambling without any intervention from others.Trying to figure it out on checking it on gambling sites? It isn't that possible and its hard to know which one is rich and which one is poor but generally they do have the money to spend on and as said above before above post that you can see which one is having lots of money or have a bigger bankroll because you do able to see on how he bets.
Well, this one really got me thinking. Anyway, I think it's quite difficult to determine whether the majority of gamblers are poor or rich. They could be rich at first, gambled much and then lost big time and became poor. Or it could be the other way around. Poor (or average) at first, tried his luck in gambling, and then won big time, and became rich afterwards.
I don't know, honestly. I can't really say personally because there are people who are rich but prefer not to show it and there are poor who likes to show-off. And we cannot simply judge a book by its cover, right? But regardless of their financial status, as long as they gamble with their own money, then let them be.

I guess the most or majority of gamblers are poor. Some tried to gamble because they thought this will help them get rich quickly, just look at those who fall in line to buy tickets to lottery, that’s considered gambling right? Have you seen anyone who bought a lottery ticket driving a Mercedes Benz?
they are not poor, but in middle class society hoping to struck jackpot and change there lives overnight, poor people will buy food first tickets later, and if were talking about casino gamblers then i can assure you that most of them are rich people. 
We cant tell for sure if the majority of gamblers are rich or poor.
Anyone can gamble regardless of their status in life therefore we cant accurately answer your question op.
Even people who dont have money can make a way to gamble especially those who want to get rich quick so they regularly buy a ticket in lottery.

Most gamblers are rich, and only a few of them are poor. We know that to play gambling, we need to have money and that only the rich people who will have money and time to spend in the gambling games. It means they have free money which they don't use for anything so they can start to play gambling. But after some time, their money will be less than before. And many of them finally lose all of the money, and that makes them poor. They are rich because they have money no matter how much money they have.
