Gambling can and never will be like investing.

The otherway around is possible though. If you blindly invest in anything that comes along, that makes it gambling.

Gambling too can be considered as an investment when you get an assured earning through the same. Such an access is possible only when you make an investment upon the gambling house rather than just gambling regularly on several events as well on Casinos.

that's right if you will place your btc into the bankroll that can classified as investment letter the house to use your money and give you
some dividends when the house wins, but if you are a gambler who keeps on playing its impossible to treat gambling as an sort of investment.

I can consider this as gambling because bankroll is used to pay people who wins in a casino does the bankroll is being gambled every time a player roll. So yeas investing in a Bitcoin Casino is an gambling that is like investment. Aside from that it is also an investment when we try to learn strategy and skills in poker since we use money/BTC and time gambling just to learn stuff. This is gambling like investing.

I'm not a fan of gambling by itself, but instead as a way of studying and learning about other things. For instance, I'm sure that if elderly people kept playing card games, it would help keep their minds alert. Studying poker involves studying human nature and probabilities. There are other aspects like studying risk in gambling, which is like studying risk in investing.

Does anyone have any examples of how gambling is like investing?

Gambling can be investing only when you invest in the house . I say it as gambling because it contains risk too ( Casino Bankrupt ) , other than this I don't think gambling can be investing but I have heard that people used to invest in a group of BJ players who mastered card counting , not sure if its true.

If I am understanding you correctly, you are saying that the only way that gambling is like investing is if you are the house, or own a part of a casino. To this i would agree. All gamblers agree, if you could be the house why gamble?

it depends on their individuals, many problems that people have such like time not everyone got their free time for doing some project rather than made a project they decided to support/invest the project, Investing your money on gamble site it's and play in there mean you're investing because you got ROI from gambling or none and it's have short term investment.

If we invest in gambling like casino sites and earn monthly from it than you can call it is an investment. Otherwise i realize people think that gambling like an investment because they consider both have same ways. But i am totally disagree with it, because both have no similarity to use the money on them and earn money from them.

Yes, I never find that gambling is an investment, investment is nothing but at least you made some profits.
But through gambling most of the cases you fail to make money, big players will think that gambling is an investment.

I can say gambling is like investing when you get profit.
Just like when you buy a bitcoin in time of low price.You can buy to the holder of bitcoin who wants to sell in low price.
You will stock first so that you gain in the time of rising of current in bitcoin.
So investing in gambling is possible,just use your brain how to deal with it.

In gambling you can invest only in fixed matches, that you have to buy, otherwise you can't be sure you're gonna win Cool

That's pretty much the same as investing in something with Bitcoin. How can anyone be that sure if they are 100% going to win money from what they put money in? In the end it's all just a gamble because even if the games were rigged there is a small chance of the gambler losing his money realistically speaking of course.

Do you have any examples on why you claim that gambling and investing is different from each other?

Maybe what he is trying to say that there is a bigger risk in gambling than in investing. Because in gambling, there is only 40:60 chance that you are going to win, while in Investing there is a bigger chance for you to earn money, let's say for about 70 percent, because the only thing that you have to worry about in this thing is when the site where you have invested your bitcoin is going to run off, something like that.

Gambling can never become an investment. Only way is when you invest in a gambling website. So whatever the profit the owner makes, you can get a part of it. But of you meant by doing gambling, gambling and investment are not even close.

Gambling can be an investment, if you know about what are the casino's do with those people that wants to invest into their site. They are allowing people to invest to their bankroll so that it can make the amount of winning higher for the gamblers. If you want to see an example of it, you can just click my signature and visit it.

There is also a website called moneypot which is a gambling website and also provides bankroll to its child sites too.
You can also invest in their bankroll and it will be a investment in gambling Cheesy

what op means are about when in investment there is a learning proccess when you decide which one the business to put investment , and in some gambling games like poker there is a learning proccess too which make he think that moment gambling feel like investment.

but for me personally , it is not makes any sense. gambling pretty contrast compared to investing.

I think gambling is like investment if you have good knowledge about gambling.

Although risk is always there in both trading and gambling but we can minimize the risk in gambling if we have proper planning and strategy to play gambling, even in some format of gambling your previous experience and gambling skill. Your analysis can also help you in gambling,

The best investment you can have is your own skills, I mean is gambling is just a game you can either win or lose and there always a risk thats why it is called a gamble. Your own skills and experience is the one who will help you to be at a advantage of the game. Invest in learning probability and statistics when you are in gambling. Mathematics ang engineering economy will help you determine the percentage of winning and the percentage of profit. Gambling is a hard game. Even those who use mathematics can be defeated. In gambling nothing is uncertain.

skills and experiences is one of the secrets to be a succesful trader/gambler. if you know a lot on that field you might be lessen the risk of losing but still you can be rekt if you had a bad choice. trading has a lesser risk if you just educate yourself about the things you will invest on. Gambling is just pure luck and strategy so better go choice between the two which path you are going to.

I will repeat myself again, every time when you give/place bet/ put on something and you expect more in return that is a form of investment. Gambling is all about that, in gambling your results are instant in some games, in some you need to wait, in anyway with gambling we see odds, we know potential win and we know our risks. Poker and sports are two best gambling games where you can apply different strategies and where we have most chances for making profit, other lucky games are also good but risk is higher and you depend from luck and your bankroll.
