You are preaching investment without giving any specifics on the matter, investment is good but you should know the asset you are investing in, some supposed assets will make you regret your decision to invest within the first few months of investing, bitcoin is an amazing asset and has over the years been profitable to people who invested in it but other assets have also crumbled along the way and had lead to alot or people losing money and sometimes even more, let's be guided on what assets we decide to invest in when ever we choose to start investing.

Op, this is very realistic point, and I can say both trading and investment, both of them have their own place, and to take best decisions depends on individual mindset and how much risk they fit handle, alot of people choose trading over investment  because their believe is that trading can bring money faster than investment, which is true, but a lot of risk most involved, especially people who can't wait for long, that's why once some people made up their mind, the best thing to do at moment is to wish best of luck.
But my advice is to invest in long term, investment is more suitable, once focus on long-term, it make you to escape some little stress, panic, and unnecessary thinking, because investment has proven to be a reliable way to scure your funds and building wealth, even though it may look slow, it gv peace of mind.

Trading on the other hand requires whey more, compared to investment, it is more risky, more emotionally draining, and requires more discipline and skill compared to investment,
But in trading you can get good amount of money in a short period of time, what will take you 5 years to get in investment, it will take a profitable trader 1 year or less to get it in trading
But the requirements to get profitable in trading demands alot including loss of money and personality

Nothing good comes easy that is why experience traders are making money in trading; they took their time to learn trading, sacrifices their time and money to learn, and they are enjoying it at the end, but some of us are very lazy to learn, but they want to earn instead; that’s what is affecting us the most and it is always leading our newbies to losing money to trading because if their inexperience and greed.

Investment in the other way is not as easy as you may think; leaving your money in an investment requires a lot of skills and sacrifice again because some people can’t afford looking at their wallet going red, so you need to be mentally stable before you can invest, and you also need to be patient to hold your investment for long before it can give you profit.

Patience is not the only important thing you need in investment; you also need to do good research about what you are investing in. It's not as easy as we think unless you are only limiting your investing asset to Bitcoin or a few already known value assets out there, which is not limited to cryptocurrency. Even with that, I consider research to know the right way to invest to also be very important. Investing in the wrong asset can destroy your investment faster than trading.

Trading involves a lot of knowledge and skills and if you’re caught off guard then your trading journey becomes very difficult to achieve success. Trading involves many things and when you don’t put things into order as it should, you’ll really make a lot of mistakes that will cost you your money. Investing may be less risky but it also important to know the right coins to invest into when you’re diversifying into altcoins. Cryptocurrency investment is best ventured into when you know the right coins to invest into and know when to buy and sell. Bitcoin is better for a stress free investment, and with this investment, you don’t need to diversify if you don’t have a prosperous coin to invest into or grind more in trading to reach that state of becoming a profitable trader.

For me, trading is similar to gambling though, you need skills to trade and not luck but in the long run the market will go against you and you will lose more than the profits you made. I call it gambling because the price movement of bitcoin is unpredictable and past records is not a guarantee for future performance. Go on a long-term bitcoin investment and stay focus on building your investment.
you need skills to trade and a little but of luck but gambling is just all about getting lucky
