<<<gerard, I think there's been a very curious confusion of gambling with risk. The two ARE NOT the same. There is clearly risk inherent with ANY investments...even money market in which you are guaranteed a return of principle. Of course, there you have inflation risk. Stocks just offer a different kind of risk, not a GAMBLE.

Greg:

I agree. there are opportunity costs associated with almost everything we do. Investment risks; associate with conditions relate to economic growth opportunities, almost a certainty in the long term, is part of our way of lives.

Gambling, however, largely depends on statistics.
