When is Gambling Like Investing

[marcuslong]

Gambling can be investment only in the case of nonstop win, but it's just impossible. From other hand investment in gambling sites can become really profitable as I heard.

No one wins non stop, to make it a more realistic definition, gambling can only be an investment if you put your money in casinos who offers investment program. That way you can ensure that they will give you a little percentage of their income based on your investment, this is only for people who are willing to wait, it's less risky for me IMO.

When you are just about to deposit money and live the money for the interest it called investment but putting money for casino just to play its like big investment because you we're the one who gonna play for it even the big risk your will face to be honest it is not that easy to win in gambling you need to have a luck and good skills when you are playing poker game. We can't even assured the straight win that every ones to get.

The time when gambling and investment are the same is making a capital that no assurance that make a profit. Investing is saving a money from long period of time to make a profit, gambling is making a profit also if they win but in small period of time. They both money involve, same encounter a losing, and they need to allot a time.

This is because we think for earning a money and investing and gambling are one way to make this. Investing will use for securing the future while money from gambling is easy to consume. Between the similarities and differce, the diffence is more many.

You have a higher chance of making a profit from investment because you can choose what kind of investment you want, in contrast to gambling which luck is the primary factor. And with investment, you can set a time frame for how long you want to invest and set a target profit before taking profits. Both have risks involved, but that's as far as their similarity lies.

I'm not a fan of gambling by itself, but instead as a way of studying and learning about other things.  For instance, I'm sure that if elderly people kept playing card games, it would help keep their minds alert.  Studying poker involves studying human nature and probabilities.   There are other aspects like studying risk in gambling, which is like studying risk in investing. 

Does anyone have any examples of how gambling is like investing?

Gambling is not an investment, but a gamble. There you will be faced with two choices between losing or winning in a game. While investing, it means as we invest a capital that certainly hope will multiply for the future. In this case it may be a bit thin between gambling and investing because both instill mdal at the beginning

There is no way that gambling can be seen as any type of investment, with investments you are guaranteed some profits after everything. But with gambling the is no guarantee you can win or lose everything.

I think it could be but it would be considered as a very risky investment. There is always some risk to any kind of investment whether it be a sure thing or something that is new to the world and you believe in it. You could try to control your gambling ways in order to be more efficient in making a profit for it.

Many people have tried placing odds of 1.01 and 1.02 with high stakes and thinking that it was gonna be a good investment because they thought to add 1 or 2% to their balance this way. Unfortunately no one of them have come victorious in this game. This way gambling can never be considered as an investment. Gambling just like the name says is a gamble, you either lose or win no other outcome.

i think if we make an investment in gambling industry, we use gambling as our investment but we don't playing the games and only deposit our money as investment. but we should realize that making investment in gambling industry have a big risk to because no one know when the site or the place will be scam or still paying the investor.

I do not want to risk my capital at any cost with gambling. Moreover people will never find returns from this investment, still people are ready to call it is a high-risk investment type  . I just wonder how people are believing in to an one way investment. Honestly I like to call gambling is not an investment just a spending.

In short, we invest into gambling with the expectation of making good fortune which might lead to life changing. But gambling just gives frustration in returns, but people are not ready to blaming gambling but calling it a high-risk investment opportunity.

At this very moment all I can think of gambling is like a donation, traditional casinos were the greediest donation receivers they just rigged and cheated in every single game, at least now we have provably fair.

There is nothing to learn in gambling other than finding out how greedy you are and how gullible you could become, you could always try to study about investment strategies by using demo accounts in forex and stocks markets.

GAMBLING can never be as same as investing because there are always house edges and you can never ever beat them. The more you play,the more money you lose. Therefore, I suggest you should stay away from gambling and start looking for other true investing programs

Gambling is really not an option when we do plan on making money on longer terms because this is just good when it comes to leisure times and make release on some stress.This is only the way that gambling should be treated and it would only comes like to an investment when we do already putting up our money on the bankroll of the gambling site.

Gambling can never be part of investing as it is not even should be considered as a way to earn a single cent. Yes, gambling can gain your wealth of unimaginable proportions, but this is totally impossible to reach as in the long run you will likely lose more money than you will earn. So never ever think that gambling can be a way of earning anything.

There are instances wherein gambling and investing  have some similarities. They both involve risk, gambling more so, but risky nonetheless. It's putting on money on someone else's hand hoping that you have some returns but in gambling hoping for a return is due to chance while investment is due to certain circumstances like inflation. But despite these similarities they have a big difference. In gambling, even if you produce a large sum of money there's no guarantee that you will get something in return. While in investing, producing money means owning a share of that company. Even if its slow sometimes to get returns at least you'll still get something out of it.

You can take the advantage of those house edges if you can't beat, since most of the casino's are offering some good opportunity for being an investor to them. I think gambling can be a real investment by this way, you will be with the house by just simply letting them use your capital and they will restore it to you soon with some little profit or interest.
