For me I chose to be a investor. Investors are taking long-term profit but gambling can only be short-lived and you can lose your money and you can earn a living here, they're both risky and the only scam is to go to investors but to gambling wins and losing the ultimate destination. Gambling is addictive and bad habits.. Its never possible that a person always win.  Gambling gives results in a minute,  while investing required efforts and hard work.
