Very nice and relatable thread OP. Personally I feel say nothing dey bad to work for person atleast man gats start somewhere, I don see people change their workers level of life when opportunities show. Most people just dey work to survive you never get wetin to use set urself up you get to work with person first.
For this forex trading and gambling aspect, you fit no dey wrong when you say trading dey like gambling bcus the two of them they unpredictable but I feel say trading they more secured in the sense that with the right knowledge and information even if you dey lose sometimes you go dey yield results too, whereas gambling results they but they no get guided principles say if you dey do am like this u go dey collect them e no dey na just purely on luck that's why they use the slogan and I quote stake what you can afford to lose cus e no ever dey sure except In the case of fixing.
In all weather trading oh or gambling no carry all your hope put on them sort 3 options too trade and gamble wisely no dey rooted cus them go surely fail or disappoint at any time.
