I realize there would be no way to accurately calculate this.
There are a certainly a nonzero number of people within our hobby for whom sports cards have become an addiction. I wonder what percentage of these people are primarily addicted to the random chance element of breaking open wax. Whether one does this personally or uses a "breaker" to open the wrappers, the end result is the same. Pay X dollars, get Y random cards. In this respect, breaking is really no different than gambling.
