The notion that rich people are heavy drinkers is intriguing because it violates our stereotypes about what it means to be poor. Oscar Wilde articulated one of these cleverly when he pointed out that work is the curse of the drinking class.

    I doubt it, there are heavy drinkers in all classes of people.

    I really don't believe that the richer you are, the heavier the drinking you do. But I will say the quality of liquor used is way better than if you're poor!

    I've known some wealthy alcoholics, I've known some wealthy coke-heads, and I've known some wealthy 'squares'. *shrugs*

    That's like asking if poor people are crack smokers.
