I know it isn't an investment, but in the last few years some "high risk" investment funds have appeared, and in them you can either lose it all or earn a lot of money.

Isn't this basically the same as gambling? Wouldn't it be faster to just deposit the amount in a casino? At least you'd be able to spend your earnings much sooner Cheesy

I think Investment or investing
is somewhat Not the
same as gambling.

Because in gambling you are using
skills and luck to win or have some
profits, While Investing doesn't
It is just only based on time and the
percentage of money to be distributed to the investors.

If you are talking about the casino bankroll investiment, yes, it's a risk investiment. It's not 100% guaranteed to receive the money back with profit.

If you are talking about play on Dice like an "Investiment", it's not high risk, but a total loss on long term. There is no stability, you can lose your money any time on a big sequence of losses and there isn't a rule or strategy to follow to be successfully. It's very very unstable.

I wouldn't even consider it anything other then entertainment, i mean if it makes you happy and your not going to overboard then all is good.
But nope unless you're invested in the house.

I think the term "investment" should be replaced because it is not appropriate to use since we are talking about gambling. Gambling have high risk, we all know that, but it is not a "high risk investment". It is a game where your money or bitcoin is at risk because it is the only way gambling are functioning. Gambling is all about money and bets but never an investment because an investment is a way to grow your money without a high risk unlike gambling.

If you are a player that does gambling then definitely yes. But i think if your the owner of those gambling site or casino then it is not a high risk investment as we all know everyone gambles and many of us gets addicted to it. That is why i think that thefe are many gambling sites showing up right now because they think it is the most profitable of earning money.

I think you got a lot of it wrong. Gamblers play because of entertainment and the thrill of having quick money but it will never be considered as a high risk investment. But maybe owning a gambling site may be worth the risk as we really don't know if the games are really fair when they say they are. But too be safe we must never spend all of our bitcoins in a gambling site.

owning a gambling site aka being the house is like running any other business especially online businesses and it will have the same amount of risks.

but in the end it is only profitable if the owner of that site knows how to run it, increase its security, and advertise. if you can do these 3 the best way possible then it is only a matter of time and we all know that the house always wins.

Investing on the gambling house itself would be considered as an investment compare on playing on the gambling site itself, its not considered as investment but an entertainment and as you said its better to be safe and deciding to put up our money on gambling house itself.

As i played in gambling site, i considered it as high risk investment because we are deposting money into it. And then we are earning multiple profit when we are in luck bad when we are in bad luck you know the result is. Yes although we earn in the gambling and if we can not win then much better if we stop.

yes of course trading can be consider as high risk investment, i think it can really, although all investments are risky but gambling is a little more that any other investment.

Trading is indeed investment ( investing into something and selling at higher prices ) while gambling is totally a risky and luck based gaming that is done while you are in negative chances of winning, I would consider gambling as investment maybe if there was no house edge at all.

I see it as investing on yourself because you skills matters in trading, you will set a bankroll or capital and you need to manage that by predicting the price and if you are prediction is right most of the time that means you are good and your skills will make you rich.

Skills on trading would really help you out to make good decent amounts on each trade especially on high amounts then expect you would also get big profits. Skills would really matter unlike on doing gambling. Gambling games are not considered as high risk investments hence they are just for entertainment purposes ,

Investing in an online casino is a better decision
But it will take some time to
accumulate profit, since the percentage of
returns of your investment are
not that high.

But basically if you invested a lot of money or
btc then you will earn a big amount also.

yes ,we can say because at the current time the no one investment sites are trusted so we can say it is a risky to invest btc at any site .
similarly in tye gambling we can't trust at our luck to the particular bet , thus we can say gambling is a high risk investment .

That's no true that no investment site can be trusted, saying that would mean that all investments here in the crypto world are just scam, I guess that will only be depend on the person who will evaluate the type of investment he likes and if you will not do your task to make a good research, you would fail of course.

I never considered gambling as an investment. So I can't say if it is an investment, but I agree that gambling is high risk. A high-risk game where you have a bigger chance of losing than winnings. I don't know why people think gambling as an investment but the truth it is a game of entertainment where you bet your money to gain more.

No Bro I Don't Think that Gambling Can Be Considered as A High Risk Investment Because in High Risk Investment You Need Some Experience about Investing in this Websites Only Then You can Make a Profit But In Gambling Your Experience Doesn't Work....
Gambling is a Shit Game Based on Pure Luck and Never Make You Rich.....

Yes I think it can be considered as a high risks investment these days because its something that is risky due to the fact you need luck and its also that you really have to invest money with high risks if you are playing.

First, think you should understand is that gambling is not at all an investment because it is just an entertainment activity and got a chance to win money if you're lucky. But most of the people like you understood wrongly and spending their money to win and end up losing a lot of money in gambling. Don't waste your money in gambling instead, invest some other places if you want to grow your money.

of the said investment risk, may be more appropriate to call it a game with a high risk. Well, in this case we have always enjoyed the game of gambling, betting, or whether the dice. everyone has their own purpose. it makes us bet money that we have, so it would be a risk for people who play it. however, is slightly different from the investment, because in our own gambling was the one who used the money in the short term.

Playing in gambling and investing in gambling it's very different. If we gamble in my opinion that's not including investments, since gains in getting the investment it can be obtained in a row. Very different from gambling that the gains depends on luck and it is uncertain.

gambling and investment are entirely two different things ,investment is a monatory asset which would give a return in the future and gambling means to take a risky action taken with the hopes of becoming successful,these are the exact meaning and so cannot coin the term as gambling being a high risk investment.
