I prefer gambling and trading, because both are quick ways to make a profit, and I really like these easy-to-understand ways to make money!
Real talk !
I thought campaign would be the most easiest one? Gambling and trading has resemblance, they both posess high level of risks, depends on your capital. Both could give you good returns if your lucky, yet both could lose all your invested capital in a day as well. Whereas, campaigns dont need any funds to invest, yet can make you good money. The only risk involve is not getting paid by the greedy manager.
Gambling and trading can only have resemblance if you are trading without a strategy and that is not just resemblance because trading without a strategy means you are gambling. As long as you are knowledgeable, you know what to always do at every point in time, then, you are better off as a trader than a gambler.
The mistake people make is that they tend to assume trading is just about buying and selling, but there are other decisions such as stopping loss, and managing your funds as a professional trader. Campaign is an easy area for anyone, but with trading you need to learn.
Even if you have strategies , you cant take away the similarities between the two. Knowledge in trading doesnt guarantee you a market that behaves the way you want it, instead, it will give an edge to where you want to put your mOney. But, I didnt said that they dont have differences either, of course they do. What I meant of the resemblance in general, is that, both of them are stochastic that is unpredictable. (Im sorry Im not a pro trader, but thats only based on how I understand the nature of trading.)
One of the thing that separates trading from gambling, is that gambling has high potential losses. Like when you go to vegas, I wont say you go to casinos to win, but to play. We already know the house always wins.
