The Secrets To Winning At The Stock Market Roulette Wheel.

Investing Or Gambling?

When it comes to the stock market, are you an investor or a gambler? Most would want to be labeled an investor, of course. Nobody calls themselves a gambler. The latter throws up ideas of addiction and recklessness. The public stigma of gambling disorder includes ideas that those who suffer from it are “greedy” and “irresponsible,” the premise that they are at fault for their difficulties, and a desire to avoid social interaction with them.

But hold on a second. At their core, investing and gambling both entail the use of capital with the intention of making a profit. Right? So, are they the same? The distinction is, at best, blurry. I often pose the question on my Twitter page, where I have 36,000 followers. I haven’t really gotten a definitive answer.
