Can be called as that but somehow its quiet risky for people to think about gambling is like investing since they might put some bad impression then think about they should gamble for more since this is part of their investment.
Also maybe if they are seeking for investment they should avoid looking at gambling since this is so risky activity to engage. Much better if they just go on other things like investing on Bitcoin or other cool stuffs out there since maybe they can lessen up the risk and possibly get more better result.
People can think about it wrongly but it's their personal choice and we only can try to educate them about different risk levels of investment, trading and gambling. Investment is less risky and gambling is most risky while trading is in between. Depends on your practice, trading can become very risky like gambling but with investment in a good asset like Bitcoin, it's hard to turn your investment to risky practice and lose money except if you use your bitcoin for trading or gambling.
With gambling, it is risky since the start and if you gamble irresponsibly, risk increases considerably and quickly.
