I think investing is a good option rather than gambling unless you are ready to loose your investment for a big profit.
Anyways if you are saying Ponzi scheme investments then it's a no because they are like gamble.

Ponzi’s are a terrible option at least with gambling you know what you are getting into and you could get some fun out of it, but with ponzi’s you are going to lose all your money and you are going to be left feeling awful of losing that money in that way.

Investments are rather better compared to gambling, Investments liked fixed deposits, treasury bills are sure investments that yields dividends no matter what happens, There is no way to lose money with those investments compared to gambling.

Playing with something safe is not really nice sometimes. It might be better with those kind of investment however the amount that you can get yearly is not so high compared with gambling investment. For some people that want to take the risk then gambling site investment is a great thing to consider

Investing in treasury bills . Cheesy Then why dont you start investing in good stocks in the stock exchange and how about investing in good IPOs rather than gambling with your money. Gambling is a fun activity and if you are planning to make money you have to invest it rather than gambling.

Ponzi Schemes are really terrible, it is all just a good and beautiful dream, but it is really a nightmare covered with marshmallows and rainbows. You must not believe on that Ponzi Schemes.
You know, I will just recommend you in a casino than Ponzi Schemes. Better to gamble than to sugar coat my words to let other people be fooled.

Yes true, for long term investments and guarantee of the future is better than gambling, but I think depending on the speed that we want to achieve, if we want to get profit within the short time, surely must choose gambling. We could not produce a 1000% profit in a months with investment, but with gambling is very possible.

Who wants fast profit will probably lose money and not win. Profit must be build step by step to be solid and concrete. Gambling can give you a fast return, but there is a high possibility of this return doesn't come, even on short term. It's stupid to try making fortune with gambling, it's good only if you have much "ammo" to burn, if you are a rich person.

both depending on how long you want to gain profit. investing is for a long term run while gambling is more of a short term. investing may take months for you to have your profit while in gambling, minutes or just a couple of hours, you can already gain profit. but when we talk about risk, investing is less risky while gambling is the opposite. in gambling you can gain profit in seconds and might lost everything too in seconds as well. so we should consider and assess ourselves too. if we are fond in chasing risk, well gambling is a good choice. but if we want to play on the safe side, better yet choose investing.

I agree that investing in gambling houses gives more percentage if the current round yeild a high profit.  Sometimes gambling investment gives negative return, it has been seen and experienced by lots of gambling house investors and there is also a thread here that shows them.  I would rather have a small 100% profit than big  % profit but but can have a negative return if things does not turn right.

I agree on the Investment is better compared to gambling part, but I don't agree with you when you said that "There is no way to lose money in investment." because not all of the Investment sites out there are legit, most of it turned out to be a scam and run off with all the money that all of their investors invested to them, I mean those HYIPs out there.

And if we are going to talk those Gambling Investments, I would say that it is not that safe also, it is like using your money in gambling in a way, the only difference is the percentage of losing your money here is lower than the percentage of losing your money in gambling.

There is no safe place in this world and no exception with investment. If anything goes as expected, I mean if the site where we put our money won't do anything bad towards our money, then investment will be a good choice to be made. But don't forget, in investment, we need to put relatively big amount of money instead the dust one if we wanted to get a steady good profit from it.

Gambling is not an investment but these are just games to give you enjoyments but if you use it as an investment then most likely you will lose all your money soon or later. Even investments on casino bankrolls are high risk but profit making chances much better than directly gambling. So if you want grow your money then better don't gamble but try to invest in good products.

Obviously investing is better than gambling.  When you gamble, the odds are against you - you will lose money.  With investing, you will always make money.   You won't make as much as you would if you gamble and win, but you are guaranteed to make money.

Are you serious with what you said? If there is no ways to lose on investment then all people will prefer to invest instead of gamble. You can lose your investment suddenly as well if there are big winners after you invested your money. You got it really wrong and your words may mislead for some newbie who want to invest.

Yes, all investments come with some risks, but investments are safer than gambling. Because in gambling one luck is needed to make money. But in investments, you can find ways to reduce your losses like by doing a diversifying your funds you can increase your percentage of making a profit. I always prefer investing than gambling.

Well yeah i have to agree woth you on that because gambling has already ruined a lot of people's lives, businesses relationships etc.  I think for someone who is thinking about the future and is responsible with how he handles money, there won't be anything to think about when given a choice between investing and gambling. Your money's not only safer but in the long run you may very well be rraping a good fruit if you engage in investing. Though you have to make sure that you're well prrpared because if not, it's the as gambling with your capital

if you have a big nerved and you can take high risk losing out your money its ok to go with gambling and hope for your luck, its an easy way to earn good profits in returned but surely easy way to lose your money too. coming from your knowledge and time for researching and learning what investment would be better for you chances to earn good profits will take place so better to go with investment mate.

For me the better way to invest our money is in ico or exchange our money into bitcoin currency and wait for the price to become high if we don't want or we are afraid to trade it into alternative coins to make profits then we choose icos investment where is you need to wait only.

Investment in gambling sites is going to help you more rather than waiting for bitcoin's price going higher . Investment is going to give you some return while you wait for the price and this is considered as a double win solution however it require much longer time than what people expect but you can always divest anytime
For those unpatient people who can't wait for their investment return they are playing gambling where they are taking more big risk to lose there money than puting it on real and good investment. Im always waiting for the comeback of my money with the percentage of it. I don't also depends on single income i always find ways.

It's much better to invest in whatever it is so that you could make money.
If you want to have a good time and play whatever you want then I would recommend that you Gamble with a small amount of money so you don't lose your cool when you lose a match.

Investing in something requires a bunch of skill and research, the people that Gamble won't ever compare the two together because one is a sure thing and the other isn't.

To gamble or invest? Ofcourse to invest because in gambling world once you lose your money, it is absolutely gone. While in investing you will earn even your at the bed, at the work or no matter what. You are earning more money because of the interest of your invest.

Yes, in gambling when you once lose you will have hard time to recover but in investment when you lose, still you can stand up again and take time to recover your losses. I personally prefer to invest because this is the best thing for me and I know that this will give me good profit in the end unlike with gambling it will give me frustration in the end.

If you're not smart enough then don't gamble, gambling is not about strategy either and its not about luck too, its about how will you control yourself for greed in winning then losing everything. No matter how much you win in gambling if you don't have a control then you will always end up losing. In investment we are talking about a real gamble because the chance of winning and losing is 50/50 while in online gambling you only have around 27% chance of winning even if it says 50%.

Gambling is all about luck and strategy. Though you can't control yourself but if you've got enough luck and good strategy you will end up into a very good fortune and that will make yourself happy. And when you came to the point that you are losing from not controlling yourself, you will lately realize it, so that's normal.
