Gambling is dreamed for sudden change in life.
We hear many people are making quicker profits or losses and making their life better or worst. Just a curiosity, is there any other job or business in this world which is more fruitful or dangerous than gambling.

Gambling must be unique in this way.

No any other business can match with gambling for it's earning potential along with entertainment.
You may do your job in an entertaining way, but thrills and what next kind of suspense are especially only can be enjoyed along with gambling, not in any job or business. 

Buying and selling houses can be a huge risk its almost like gambling you can buy for low and sell for higher. A friend sold 86 houses this year just buying and reselling. Made a ton but risked a ton.

I think you could throw trading into the mix. Theres many guys in the world who make or lose millions in a day trading stocks or commodities

I think no other business that can compare to gambling.
So far i just know gambling that can make you win or loss fast. Double or nothing :)
Business is for make slow profit and less loss.

I don't think there is. Gambling could get very addicting very quickly.
I can't come up with any other business that has the same effect as gambling.

trading forex, trading altcoin is a business like gambling.
if you dont have experience you are pure gamble by trading.

I don't think so mate. I have been a retail forex trader for almost four years and I could affirm that forex trading is more a matter of practice and experience rather than luck, and it can generate more profits than gambling with consistency.

Tradin is different thing. The OP need faster and quicker win or loss. Trading are slow profit, need to study and depend on luck to win. About loss it slow too.. trading will loss but somehow it can win back with some profit again.
But with gambling you can all win with ur funds and double it or bust. The fastest way is gambling :)

Yeah, trading and share markets .They're as powerful as gambling in making you quick "rich" or "poor".Even real estate or any other entity which depends on the market for its value .I'm speaking of smart investments and investors here.Share markets can do the job if played accurately .

Day trading happens on the same trading day so that might be relative close, and momentum trading (scalping) also a pretty quick form of trading. But still not as fast to win or lose as gambling, indeed :).

Well if you work some where your life depends if you die that day or not like cops or gold miners or other dangerous work.
That is the jobs that is not better than gambling. With work you always get money and with gambling is just lucky if you win.

Probably its scamming :D Everyone definitely had an idea how much or how many a scammer can rip off depending on its skills and experience. The only thing that they can lose is when they were caught and arrested, which I guess more devastating than losing all your coins on gambling. And they can definitely scam any amount they want. Its illegal though and not tolerated.

Get a job dude and stop gambling. WTF  ???

are you often see on television show about lottery winners?
they could get rich quick because winning the lottery
is the lottery including gambling?

Yes you can get rich with quickly with your small amount of bet but the chances of winning on lotteries were way too low. You got more chance of winning x9900 on dice than on lottery :D Anyway lottery is some sort of gambling according to wiki : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lottery

Yes lotteries are also a type of gambling. All the programs which induce your greedy by promising getting rich quicker can be considered as gambling without any exceptions.
I too believe there is no other job or business is equivalent to gambling for making profits as well as for loosing wealth.

For me is trading in Bitcoin future. I had experience in future trading it's dangerous because Bitcoin can pump and dump many times. I can get money fast and lost it fast too.

if you are a good marketer life would be so easy , your biz will depends on other people that buy something or register in a specific site
I know a person who started 6 months ago in a revenue share program with 100$ , and marketed it crazy
he gained arround 225 paid referrals and now he is making 750$ daily , there is a risk here too that the program may scam but when we look to the seed money he spent and the results he is getting today we would find that the risk was nothing

Trading with lots of leverage can make lots of more profit or losses than gambling as you can use margin to borrow a big sum of money to trade.
It is not advisable as any fluctuation can wipe out your capital if you leverage many times.

Maybe the real estate or construction business can yield high profits like in gambling.

Of course there are many jobs or businesses more dangerous that gambling. But question is - are we talking about legal or illegal stuff here?
Omitting illegal activities you can earn probably the same amount, or higher (depends on your bankroll) from investing (and it is not so different from gambling) or trading bitcoins or altcoins.
If you have initial budget to start some real life activities you can establish a successful company etc. But nothing is more profitable than gambling - but you have to had amazing luck for it.

as i said before, if you don't have any experience and knowledge about trading it will be pure gamble.
trading forex or altcoin are similar to gambling. fast to earn and fast to busted.

if for gambling you add already a sportkoob betting, you can wotk with surebet. Have more bookmakers in bitcoin and already 1-2 valid exchange in bitcoin, you can search a best odd and work ehit this, but is hard and request a good liquidity in btc

How to apply surebets only on sportbook which accept bitcoin.?
Please tell me some site with odds for surebets.

Knowledge won't help you much unless it's inside knowledge  ;)  You can know all you want about waves and stuff but one government act can make a company go down.

inorder to trade you need a capital investment in your pocket ,the rich have many options.  ;D

Lol good point but some people are just addicted to gambling, it's not as easy to quit like some people are making it out to be. Getting a job and working hard for your money is more satisfying to me than just to gamble everything away and keep on stressing out whether I'm going to win or not.

In some parts of the world it's hard to get a good paying job. Gambling or trading is much easier and can pay better than a crappy job paying 2$ per hour.

u are definitely right, i have lost over 80 btc from altcoin trading, once i lost 50 btc on vootcoin scam, and then is maidsafecoin, which is developed by a low efficient team, luckily i have a normal and good pay job, so i can have decent life enough i lost so much money on scams.

But betting moderately on sports can be rewarding and fun in the same time if you do it right.

I do agree on this because I am investing and risk-taking on ponzis, they are really more profitable than gambling IF you know how get used into it. I just don't find it fun compared to gambling on casino sites.

Eventhough I am playing and earning profit with ponzis, still, I do not recommend it as most programs tend to collapse/scam earlier than expected.
