In addition, gambling can affect the minds of its players, allowing them to become more interested in gambling, so it is not surprising that many become addicted to gambling to the point of losing quite a large amount of money. Also, in my opinion, there is no specific benchmark for who will be more susceptible to addiction, poor or rich people have the same chance of addiction.

The thing to note to avoid addiction is to be able to establish discipline and this can be done by rich or poor people, depending on themselves who have what kind of views on gambling. If indeed the view on gambling is a way to make money, then addiction can be a definite consequence.
Those people who lose their minds because of gambling will not think much and only want to playing gambling. Yes, they become more interested in gambling without thinks the risks that can become bigger. We don't know how to help them who start become addicted to gambling because they don't tell anything to us so we can not do anything. More people will become susceptible to addiction especially if they can not take care of themselves and only want to chase the win.

If they really want to avoid addiction, they must not playing gambling too often and use limitation. They must have many things to do to distract their minds from thinking about gambling. If you don't get addicted to gambling, you need to take care yourself because the temptation can become big and make you addicted easily.

Correct just a matter of time if they have that misconception about gambling, it's not a venue for quick money making, but the opposite if you are not careful with your budget, everyone can suffer and there's no exemptions as gambling carried risk behind, people who are not capable in controlling their emotions are vry vulnerable in getting hook to it to the certain point that they've gonna be addicted and unable to resist, till they already lose everything that they've got.
It is why they must have strong self control to avoids the risks of playing gambling. Self control helps them to know that they almost lose much so they can stop gambling before it is too late. And yes, those who can not controlling their emotions can close to become vulnerable to addicted to gambling especially when they are lose for some money. That is why when they are playing gambling, they must always be careful and manage their budget.

Gambling addiction can affect people of all ages, regardless of where they live or their financial situation. Many teenagers are now wiser than graying elders because they have a huge knowledge base in front of them, so I think that talking about specific groups of people who are more susceptible to gambling addiction is not quite right. The tendency to addiction depends very much on the psychological profile of each individual. And in fact it is difficult to determine which person will become gambling addicted and which will not before the addiction begins to show the first signs.
Yes, and somehow they can keep it a secret too. So, knowing if a person is gambling addicted might be difficult unless you hire someone that will follow them. The nearest relatives might have an idea though, they will see the difference in attitude like if the person is always angry, stressed, and frustrated at even the smallest mistakes. Then, financially a gambling addict will have a lot of problems. If before they had a good life and now they are filled with debts, that's one sign that person is gambling addicted.
It's true that this cannot be defined just by looking at people, they may be addicted to something else or they are really not but they maybe suspected depending only on their actions.

Gambling is a lot easier to access now than before. So it is no surprise if more people find themselves gambling. Unfortunately, not a lot of us can be responsible enough to prevent ourselves from falling into deep addiction. This probes the question, who are the most vulnerable to falling into a gambling addiction?

We already know that less privileged people are more prone to getting addicted to gambling with the involvement of financial reward. They are the ones chasing more wins because they actually need the money. The more money they get, the deeper they get into the addiction.

Another demographic that is more likely to get addicted to gambling are adolescents. Adolescents are aged 12-18. The rise of online casinos made way to more kids getting access into gambling. It is said that male adolescents are the ones most recorded to have ended up addicted in gambling. Their addiction is usually associated with sports  and mobile games betting.

Lastly, the most vulnerable to falling into a gambling addiction are those already suffering from pre-existing mental conditions. About 4% of people being treated for substance use also have gambling disorder, as do nearly 7% of psychiatric inpatients and up to 7% of people with Parkinson’s disease. An estimated 96% of people with gambling problems have at least one other psychiatric disorder.

I am sharing this to raise awareness so more people are aware whether they fall under these categories I mentioned and may have high chances of becoming a gambling addict. Let’s keep ourselves informed and in check. Not only ourselves but our loved ones as well.

Well, based on the current demographics its a mixture of ages but mostly I would say that the group that is most vulnerabile is men in general. Young men as old as 18-99 as they probably have money to spend. Single men for sure are most succeptible as they don't have a spouse or gf to stop them but even the ones who do or are married still have this issue but not as much if their spouse is keeping track of the finances etc. Those marriages have a higher chance of divorce rate for sure. They say kids not are having a big problem with the onset of online gambling but i'm not sure how accurate that is.

In my opinion, gambling is not only targeting poor people at this time because many rich people also gamble not to find more money but just for entertainment. They also don't realize that they have spent a lot of money while gambling because they enjoy it too much, in fact, many gamblers go bankrupt, initially they did not think that gambling would make them bankrupt, until finally their lives become simple but they can still live even though they have to be different from their previous lives, different from poor people, they will be even more disadvantaged, some even sell valuables and end up homeless, in this case, poor people are indeed the ones who are more disadvantaged.
If someone cannot be completely stress-free while gambling, then he will not be able to gamble properly. There are many poor gamblers who borrow money when their own money is lost and gamble so much that they do not realize that their gambling is addictive or not at a normal level. In such cases, the normal sense of gamblers does not work until they lose all their money. Gambling sites pay special attention to such gamblers so that they can gain more money. Such gamblers gamble more and lose more. Such poor gamblers can gamble more than many rich gamblers.
It is very sad for the poor and they are addicted to gambling because they are likely to try anything to get money because they want to gamble, one of which is by borrowing money, because with this their condition can get worse, whether it is their economic or financial situation, because when they are addicted, they are likely to spend a lot of money just to gamble because there are many cases like this, and this also applies to the same rich people when they are addicted, they may lose all their money or even use their savings.It is difficult to determine which is more vulnerable to addiction, because if it is determined in terms of poor and rich, maybe rich people are more vulnerable because they have enough money to gamble more with poor people, maybe they will stop when they have experienced defeat.

That's right, it doesn't matter whether they are poor or rich because the target of gambling itself is to attract people who are very interested in gambling and cannot manage their risks so that the casino feels that they are benefiting from people who are vulnerable to gambling, rich people and poor people have different goals, poor people want to get money more easily and rich people enjoy their pleasure in gambling too much and over time it makes them bankrupt, there are many cases of gamblers who go bankrupt due to excessive gambling.
Rich or poor people can be vulnerable to gambling because gambling can gives much pleasure to them especially if they want to make money from gambling. If they can not handle themselves with carefully, that will be a matter of time they will gets addicted to gambling because they become vulnerable to gambling without seeing a way out from there. Many people lose their money in gambling but they can prevent that things before that becomes bigger so they will not vulnerable to gambling like other people.

All people are vulnerable with gambling but that will depends on how they can treat gambling.
That's right, it doesn't matter whether they are poor or rich because the target of gambling itself is to attract people who are very interested in gambling and cannot manage their risks so that the casino feels that they are benefiting from people who are vulnerable to gambling, rich people and poor people have different goals, poor people want to get money more easily and rich people enjoy their pleasure in gambling too much and over time it makes them bankrupt, there are many cases of gamblers who go bankrupt due to excessive gambling.
Gambling will not look at age, gender and also poor or rich, anyone who wants to gamble can do it but I think we should be able to apply limits so as not to get caught up in addiction, if we look at the current situation in society, gambling is actually more targeted at the poor today, because most of those who are rich are more dominant in choosing to invest and spend their money on more positive things, Although it cannot be denied that there are some of them who also gamble, as you said, poor people often gamble because they want to change their fate while those who are rich are only thinking more about just looking for entertainment in casinos, but precisely when we make gambling an excuse to seek wealth,  often the opposite happens we actually get poorer because of gambling.

Anybody can get addicted to gambling. rich or poor. Anybody who gambles is vulnerable and those who gamble frequently are more vulnerable. I think I understand that those with other psychiatric disorders are the ones most prone to gambling, but every who gambles is vulnerable.

I don't believe the less privileged are more vulnerable than the rich. In my opinion, there's a higher chance of a rich person becoming an addict because the rich have the money to gamble while the poor don't. A rich person can just keep gambling while he's losing money and not mind at all because there's more where that came from and that could lead to addiction, but a poor person doesn't have that privilege
Yes, there is no clear certainty who will be more vulnerable to gambling addiction, this is more about the response of each person who gambles, now if poor and rich people both have the wrong response to gambling then addiction is certain to occur, but when they can respond to gambling correctly then addiction may not occur as well as the big losses that often occur when someone is trapped in gambling addiction.
Saying that rich people are more vulnerable because they have spare money that may indeed make them continue to gamble is true, but gambling that is done continuously will occur if they do not have good self-control and in my opinion the same goes for poor people, if they also do not have good self-control then they can do other things to make money and return to gambling. I am sure you yourself are not strange with cases of people who are in debt because of gambling, maybe these are poor people who force themselves to gamble.

They can but most of then don't have that control ending up losing a lot and with their aggressiveness they are very prone losing a lot and become addicted, though it's not limited to those young adults as there are also people who got attached deeply when they think that gambling is the easiest way to make money, only to regret things after losing huge amount of money something that they can't afford to let go.
Losing control in gambling is something that we must avoids because that can make us use more and more money to playing gambling. We will forget all things about limitations and if that is happen, that will be a matter of time that we will broke and gets addicted to gambling. If we still not realize what happen to us, we may become a heavy addicted person to gambling and once that is happen, no one can help us and drag us out from gambling. All people are vulnerable with gambling but that will depends on how they can treat gambling.
Controlling emotions is a big challenge. Perhaps saying is right—it is easy to say I will control my emotions but never see it happen. 
That is why most gamblers bound to fail their gambling journey are losing a lot because they fail to control themselves. More on personal problems, not in the casino. Sometimes we even think that casinos are scamming and cheating us, when in fact, we are the ones who committed mistakes. 
Indeed, we are the only ones that can save ourselves, but if we live in such a mindset, "I gamble for money," that certainly leads to nothing. 
One of the most common reason on why people do end up on bad decisions due to that emotional aspect on which we know that this is really that something the main culprit on why people do make up mistakes. As for that vulnerability then it will be that quite understandable on whose the ones that are young will be able to see gambling ads and other possible banners on gambling on which we do know that marketing stuffs and exposure will really be that everywhere on which knowing the accessibility that we do have today then we can be able to tell that exposure is really that likely to happen into those youths on which these are usually causing up that premature engagement towards gambling and might be ending up on being addicted in the end of time and mess up their lives on.

When someone don't have self-control, he will be vulnerable when playing gambling. They don't see that gambling can makes them in trouble because they see the excitement from gambling by playing many gambling games. Yes, they fail to control themselves and makes them losing a lot and they become addicted to gambling. Not just adult people who will be vulnerable in gambling but teenager also have a big chance to become vulnerable in gambling because their emotions are not yet stable. When they see their winning, their minds will thinks that ah this is my time to wins more money so I must keep playing gambling. But that will not be right because that is the temptation from gambling that they must identify so they will not keep playing gambling instead stop gambling immediately.

^

The richer a person is, the more he needs to spend money to maintain himself and his property. If a person is rich, it does not mean that he works less hard than a poor person. In most cases, poor people, unlike rich people, do not strive to change their lives, but go with the flow. Financial status has no influence on whether a gambler becomes a gambling addict or not. Each of us has its own psychological profile and reacts differently to risks, dopamine, adrenaline, and accordingly differently susceptible to various addictions.

Yeah is easier to get rich than to sustain It , just lik you said the rich need to spend to maintain themselves and their property. The rich usually gamble for fun not to win something big or to hit the jackpot. Because they have already gotten the money all they need is to sustain it , while the poor usually finds means to become rich over night , that's why most folks are delusional when it comes to gambling and stuff.

This issue of getting rich over night is absolutely something that is known with the poor. The poor is always on the lookout for an opportunity for them to become rich forgetting that everything takes a process and the most difficult part of becoming rich is by setting your goals and targets then working towards achieving them with patience. Any person who's not patient with time and doesn't take their time to hustle for their wealth will always fail to plan.

Gambling is not a get rich quick scheme as many people assume it. You don't just gamble and expect to blow with some unimaginable amount of money overnight. But that's usually the mindset of many poor individuals when they go into gambling.

A rich person can just keep gambling while he's losing money and not mind at all because there's more where that came from and that could lead to addiction, but a poor person doesn't have that privilege
Your thoughts are not unreasonable but here some one will think differently. Some people think that rich people do not gamble for money or they do not have to work hard for their livelihood like poor people. But a poor person always has to struggle in his life. He always tries to do something to change his situation but when there is no other way then he may get addicted to gambling. But in the case of a rich person there is no such regret. But if we think overall then it is not a problem whether a gambler is rich or poor. Anyone can get into any kind of situation. A rich person can also get affected by gambling quickly and it can also be the case with a poor person. In this case both are equal.
Anybody that is gambling with more than the amount that they can afford to loose can become addicted whether they're rich or poor. Being addicted to gambling is more of a habit than the financial status of the person so it depends on the percentage of a gamblers income that they're willing to gamble with. A rich person that makes a high turnover in their business can recover from a huge lose faster than a poor person so from this perspective we can say that the poor are more vulnerable if they lose their money in gambling. Other vulnerable categories are mentally unstable people and the underaged that don't make their own money and doesn't understand responsible gambling.

Agreed on the younger kids.  "Back in the day" you really had no access to gamble much unless it was with your friends.  Its just as i.portant for parents to understand having those conversations with their kids.  But i wouldnt say vulnerable, that insinuates that gambling houses are preying on people.  In the end gambling is a choice and should be used for entertainment.

The generation today is different as they have easy access on gadgets and internet. If parents are not so strict with gadgets and their timeframe online, they can easily get in on any site they think about. Parents can instill good values so their kids will remember them once they encounter situations that needs guidance from older people.
