I was just thinking about this because gambling is all about taking risks, where nothing is guaranteed and we don’t even know if we’ll win. so in a way, gamblers are natural risk-takers, and when someone starts a business, they also need that mindset which is taking calculated risks, making bold decisions, and having the guts to push through uncertainty.
So I’m curious, do we have any successful business owners here who could say that their experience as a gambler somehow helped them succeed in business?
The risks in gambling are different from the risks in business, in my opinion. You can't fully learn how to win at gambling, but in business, you can learn how to profit.
Perhaps it wasn't his experience, but the results of his gambling that helped him start a business, like someone who wins a jackpot and uses the money to start a business and becomes a successful entrepreneur.
