I know it isn't an investment, but in the last few years some "high risk" investment funds have appeared, and in them you can either lose it all or earn a lot of money. Isn't this basically the same as gambling? Wouldn't it be faster to just deposit the amount in a casino? At least you'd be able to spend your earnings much sooner ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) I don't think gambling can be considered as high risk investment.It can be a game to check your luck and in this game you can be winner or loser.An investment you have chance to losing but not so fast like within minutes and in investment you have at least something left. isn't it an investment when you are risking your money and hoping that it can grow ? similar to gambling , you are risking what you have in order to make it grow and you are putting your money waiting for it to double . gambling is also an investment that has a very high risk because in seconds or a minute you can lose all that you have . Whether your how small or big your deposit is, you can't escape in losing on gambling. yeah i know . even a big time gamblers who's always putting a higher bets they are still encountering a loss and they are not always getting a big profit or winning a lot from their bets .

No, an investment is something where you expect to have a positive expected value in time. In gambling, this is the complete opposite. No matter how you play, no matter how big you bankroll is, in the end you have a negative expected value. I can only agree to the fact that gambling is an "investment", if you see investment as time or when you want to expect a negative outcome. definition of investment:the investing of money or capital in order to gain profitable returns, as interest, income, or appreciation in value.

It is because we don't know if we are going to win whenever we do gambling. Maybe we are winning in the first place but after a while we didn't notice that we have lost a lot in gambling. Our mind only focused on one goal and that is "I'm going to win this time, no matter what." This is always the thought that we are thinking when we are doing gambling because we always wanted to win against the house though it is not possible because the house will never let that happen.

What you are referring is when you are a certain gambler who beat against the house, that is very obvious that will really lose in the long run as there is not exception to that, however we are talking here of investment so if gamblers loses in the long run you will be in profit in your are an investor.

Well if you are the one gambling, i don't think it should even be considered as an investment. The risks are too high that instead of a chance for you to earn, you may very well be broke.

Playing in gambling and investing in gambling it's very different. If we gamble in my opinion that's not including investments, since gains in getting the investment it can be obtained in a row. Very different from gambling that the gains depends on luck and it is uncertain.

Gambling always rely on our luck but investing in gambling is totally different, if we are investor and just enjoying the gambling than it is different than that, but I think we can't consider gambling as an investment because nobody know that what will be happen in future, investment in gambling casinos can't be compare with playing on them.

True , Gambling can't be considered as investment because like you said Investment is different with playing in these sites . Where on invest , you can relax while your investment's bankroll going on progress and you can get a profit if the player is lose and Investment can be handle in long run . But , for playing the game you'll suffer on lose and not profitable for long-run.

anything related to gambling, it has a big risk. but in my opinion, it should, if as an investor it can always be profitable. Because of what? because the owner of the house always wins. proof that they can survive for a long time. if they always lose I think they would quickly go bankrupt.

Yes, it really consists of high risk. I will not say that it is some kind of investment, but yeah it is something in which we might win something or if we lose, we will lose everything and won't be left anything, all we will have is a 0 in the end.

Yes actually can be said another name of risk because your money is in stake.And if you are talking about high risk investement which is dont either to get quick profit and has a chance of loosing as well which is pretty similar in gambling.So i guess yes it can be considered as high risk investement.

Everyone really think that gambling is a high risk investment, well I would say no, gambling guarantees your profit because the house always wins. That is the very simple explanation I can give to you and I know you know what I mean.

I think gambling can be considered as a VERY high risk investment. It's basically an investment but the result of that investment can be seen in just a few seconds. If you take a look at the charts of gamblers, there are ups and downs (in Bustabit, particularly). It's the same as the sales report of a company. There are ups and downs and it all depends on how much money you bet and how high is the multiplier that you used.

Gambling and investing in something are two completely different things which have nothing in common! So please do not mix these words with each other. Investing in something means you are expecting it to rise in it's value which will give a good return over a loger period of time. Gambling however is more some kind of very short termed speculation or sometimes just pure wild guessing.And yes it can be very risky depending on what kind of bet you are willing to take and of course what you are gambling with.

Well, it could be people think so, because gambling is risky. however, in this case, you own that trigger gains and losses. if you play with reckless and lose control, it is certain that you will be defeated unless you have great luck, but if you can control yourself, it also does not guarantee winnings. but if you win, maybe you can get a lot of money, because that you can think of this as a high risk investment

I don't know why did you even co-relate gambling to investing. In Investing there is a plan laid out in which you know what are the risk from the gain, In investment you have the upperhand in which you know how to handle the risk well, if it is in gambling there is no turning back once you place your bets if you lose you really lose your money won't return to you.

So make our gambling worth it, don't waste time on those obvious gambling games that we already know what will be the outputs in a long run. Good examples are putting investment in trading and if people really wants to do gambling, gambled only on those skill based games.

Gambling is not investment. When you play on -ev events, youare gambling. Only sports betting and poker can be turned into investment if you are good. I do well with sports. I am posting my bets where i make $5000bets here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1639120.0
