Actually, the BIG winners are those that speculate. Those that say "x will be the next big thing" and bet big on it, watching it blow up. Places like MNST (Monster Energy Drinks), for example.
If you think like that then you are a gambler and know nothing of investments. It's never the "all in" guys that win, in fact most of them always lose.
It's obvious now that you know nothing about
responsible trading/investment AND
risk-control. I`ve traded a couple of years forex, and i saw guys losing there 100.000 dollars in minutes because they could not control their emotions, just like in a casino.
How many guys you see walking out of a casino with a smiling face? It's really misleading if you see 1 guy winning 50.000$ because he gambled it. So what? You never see the other 100 guys telling you how much they lose.
It's a false paradigm like the lottery. You see 1 guy winning millions of $, but you never see the many other million of guys losing every single bet for their entire life....
Betting big on Bitcoin is not, at all, the same as going to a casino and betting big on the roulette. With Bitcoin you have 50/50. And I and almost everyone with half a brain KNOW that it will go way higher than what it is now. It's a good opportunity to go big.
And sure, doing small time investments in forex brings some gains, but you'll never be rich in the lifetime without taking risks.
