Hi! Yes, I totally agree with your thoughts, even though both of them need to take a risk with their own money. But in gambling, they can control it by themselves, as they can bet a specific amount that they want to spend on a game.

In my opinion, imagine investing in stocks as akin to supporting a friend's business. You check if they're doing well, and if they are, your support grows. On the other hand, gambling is more like taking a chance without knowing much. Investing is akin to making a thoughtful decision, while gambling is more like rolling the dice and hoping for the best.

Absolutely agree! Investing is all about strategic decision-making based on research and analysis, aiming for long-term financial growth and stability. It involves thoughtful planning and a calculated approach to managing risks and maximizing returns. On the other hand, gambling tends to rely more on chance and luck, often driven by short-term excitement or entertainment rather than long-term financial goals.

For me, investing in stocks is like picking good companies after doing some homework, while gambling is just hoping for luck to be on your side.

When it comes to investing in stocks, it's all about strategic analysis, careful planning, and making informed decisions based on company fundamentals and market trends. This is completely different from the random chance involved in gambling.

while both investing and gambling involve taking risks, investing is generally seen as a more calculated and disciplined approach to managing one's finances, with the goal of achieving long-term financial security and growth.
