I don't have faith in any online casino as you never know when they will disappear with your money in future so I will prefer to invest my money so that I can hold total control on my funds and can move my funds from one place to another as and when required.
Playing in a casino does have a big risk. We could lose all our money with a short time.
While investing gives us comfort, because we can still take action at critical times.

It's pretty simple mate, just do not invest, you only put your money on investment that you are confident. The only risk in investing in casinos are when it is hack or the owners will steal the money, other than that there are no more risk because most of the time casinos will end up winning.

House always wins but to invest your money in it you should do good research before investing and make sure that you are investing in a reputed casino that exists since long time and is paying its investors on regular basis.

Those are not even investments those are scams. If your objective is fun then gamble and try to win but don't see winning as the main attraction because the odds are against you but you can have a lucky run. If you want to make money and build up funds then invest. But invest in a legit imbestment or even invest in yourself or your own business or someone else's business.

You can count altcoins as investments too. Gambling is much better then HYIP though.

First, lets define "Bitcoin investments". In my mind it means "giving your bitcoins to someone with intent of getting more bitcoins later". There are many scams that offer this type of deal - hyips, cloud mining, ponzi schemes, scammy ICO's, etc. But there are also legit ways of investing - casino bankrolls and trading for example. But there's more! Here's the board called "Securities": https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=78.0
There are many different opportunities for investing there, and some of them are scams, so you should be very-very careful and never invest more than you can afford to lose.

I will go for investing my money in trading altcoins instead of wasting them on gambling as I am very well aware about my luck as it will never give me positive results and now I am not at all interested in loosing my hard earned coins behind gambling as it will take long time for me to earn them back.

Don't say that gambling is just a waste of money. It will depend on the gamblers perspective. There are investors that are making gambling as their main investments by putting a lot of bitcoins to the casino bankroll. But I'll go with investing but at the same time with some gambling on the side, but my focus is with investing.

I'll agree with that, I am not that big gambler, but I gamble sometimes just to have fun, release some stress, you know, putting aside my problems for a minute and have some fun gambling. I think my money is not wasted in that kind of gambling. And if you ask me, I favor gambling than investing, investing may be harder to do than gambling, but investing has higher possibility of profit than gambling, the thing about investing is, if that site or project are trustworthy or not.

Gambling is for fun and you shouldn't consider gambling as source of income but it is true that some of the investors are making really nice profit by investing in some trusted bitcoin casino platforms (if they have investment option). But earning from such investment may not be significant if you can't invest huge amount of BTC.

This is correct but I think it depends on the site as well. Some sites are profitable while some is not, even when we have alot of money to invest but if the site is not profitable then it is useless to keep investing. The problem may not be in the amount of btc but wether the site is trusted and is profitable or not

well i think it is you good decision not to gamble for profit as you are already aware of your luck that it will not in your side during gambling but i think gambling only for fun ( not profit ) will be  the best decision but if you want to invest it is also good you can make good profit but beware of scam investing sites.

You can count altcoins as investments too. Gambling is much better then HYIP though.
There are gambling sites with investment feature, you can invest as low as 10 mBTC. you won't profit much though if you invest low amount, the bigger amount you invest the bigger profit you'll make.

Instead of playing gambling games in Casino, I suggest to invest in the casino bankroll.  There is more chance of winning if your money is in the Casino bank roll than your own bankroll and use them to bet against the house.  We have seen several gambling casino that gave a positive profit to their bankroll investors.

But he have to be cautious about the benefiting sites and about losing sites. I am saying about the sites which have a good reputation in the community and where a large number of people are gambling on these sites you will earn while on sites which do not have gamblers will not make you earn.

Reputable site will protect their interest so they will not run, however we never know the future to come so it is wise to diversify your investment and ensure that you have spread it in different gambling sites who have investment program. Also, you have to control your gambling activity so it will not affect your investment.

Exactly ! I understand that it is in their best interest not to run but what if one day they decide they have enough money and to run and never work again sounds like a good idea and then they run. That's my worst fear. I think it's why some prefer to just gamble. Imvestments also take patience and people are generally not very patient and very foolish.

I think people have interest to play on gambling sites instead of investing on them. But your point is good do investment in gambling sites. It is just like investment and also our money will be saved.
This thread has long discussion, but i know in the end investors always say that investment is best and gamblers always say that gambling is best, and about me, i am a middle man, i like to do both.

It is fine to consider gambling as source of income as long as you are going to make it as an investment. But the gambling description or the activity of putting bets and treating that as source of income, well I can say that shouldn't be considered as source of income. It's popular that the longer we stay, more chance of losing.

That's true... You are just wasting your time and money on gambling. Gambling isn't right to use when it comes on souce of income. Even though invesment is too risky than gambling still investment is more profitable and much compatible in terms of source of income.

Yes, nowadays there are many ICO's running daily better invest there with your money instead of gambling because you will make some 9 x to 20x returns on it. But choosing the project will also depend better choose which one has more reputable instead of gambling and losing.
