You know the concept of Net and Gross.
(It's a comparative simile, I hope you don't get confused)What is the concept of gross and net?
Gross refers to the whole of something, while net refers to a part of a whole following some sort of deduction. For example, net income for a business is the income made after all expenses, overheads, taxes, and interest payments are deducted from the gross income.
https://www.diffen.com/difference/Gross_vs_NetThere is no direct correlation in social status, but from a financial point of view, and
"fish" forget that bet seeks a return, which depending on its result, can be profit or loss.
So for someone who loses $1000 from her balance, it is correlative to her finances, therefore, it may be a lot for a perso in need, but for the rich it is just a number that is recorded and debited.
The investment or loss of each of the individuals cannot be measured in the individual comparison, it is an
error, (fallacy), however, from the point of view of numbers, the gross investment of millionaires is much greater than that of the middle class, a gross analysis, but the net determines that according to fortune,percentage wise they lose the same. (maybe)
That is why the size of the bet is so important, but it seems little to a person to bet a dollar, when he could be betting 10% of his balance.
These types of erroneous comparisons are the same ones that any recurring, obsessive, compulsive and perhaps addicted player, and it is not the game itself which makes him lose money.
