A really interesting article:
https://www.ft.com/content/8f9bbc77-06b1-4fbd-8b7e-6e381ba038a7 The gambling Addiction helplines are spread across the world and people are super aware of them as well. Right now apparently there is a news regarding people actually calling those helplines asking help for not their *gambling Addiction* but for their day trading addiction.
The article goes far to compare the gambling with day trading, the trading platforms according to the article are now much similar to gambling and therefore when they talk about investing and trading, now a days, the animation, the applications, the bright colours, extreme profit and addiction is making it much similar to gambling.
Apparently the apps are designed in such a way that they rewire a person's brain and makes it harder for them to leave that habit.
My question is : *How far is day trading from Gambling according to you?*
Is that a valid comparison?? Are we soon going to consider the day trading *gambling?*
I am also thinking that the community must make action towards educating people specially younger generation about Gambling and this may take effect sooner.
because the world taking this as major problem but not acting to prevent this,instead only inside the house this has been addressed but not in school or in other areas in which this must be tackled.
the people around the world being lured in gambling without proper knowledge on what will happen to them if mistreated instead only the advantage is what they have learned .
