    Priority is given for people who made a ton of money in their profession or acquired status and a sterling reputation where they risked it all to gamble .The most risk value for the least reward where they lost it all.Once you acquire so many riches,there is no incentive to gamble.

    Only hard up sort of poor people without real options to make alot of quick badly needed decent cash should gamble.


    What goes through these peoples minds.Can't they say to themselves,I have enough money to already live 20 lifetimes lavishly.I better risk that money so I can live 40 lifetimes lavishly or possibly lose where I can't live 1 lifetime lavishly.

    Having to work for someone and take orders from anyone because you lost all your money where you were set up well in life is repulsive

                  Sad to say, but I guess THE SHRINK would have to be on the list.
