My belief is that the great majority of people have no idea of the difference between "investing" and "speculating" --let alone "gambling" <g> Then, on top of that they blame others for their own... 'lack of wisdom'. Further on that: as currently exemplified by the folks on the RB "MMManip" thread, way too many seem to me to be screaming for a "level playing field" that would permit them to enjoy disproportionate reward (that elusive 10,000 bagger) at no or very little risk. They appear not to understand that that isn't how it works. I'm also puzzled by the references of many to bb junk as stocks that the small investor can "afford", as opposed to, say, Nasdaq NM quality issues. They're so damned dumb they don't seem to grasp the fact that it's your percentage return that matters, not the price of the stock.
