Can we say betting is an investment or Business

[solomonmali]

Gambling is defined as staking something on a contingency. Also known as betting or wagering, it means risking money on an event that has an uncertain outcome and heavily involves chance.In order to enhance their holdings' performance, some investors study trading patterns by interpreting stock charts. Stock market technicians try to leverage the charts to glean where the stock is going in the future. This area of study dedicated to analyzing charts is commonly referred to as technical analysis.

Betting can't be referred to as business. Because business deals mostly with buying and selling, to achieve profit. And investment on the other hand can't be referred to as betting.
Betting is a different aspect on its own.

Betting is neither a business not an investment. It is a debt prompter. It mostly leads to financial problems. I hope it can be banned because it has caused so many businesses to crumble. Betting is a game of gambling not a business.

Owning a betting platform is a great investment. Putting your money into gambling is not a great investment. Do not bet with money you cannot afford to lose or else you might regret it totally.

Gambling is a time-bound event, while an investment in a company can last several years. With gambling once the game or race or hand is over, your opportunity to profit from your wager has come and gone. You either have won or lost your capital. Stock investing on the other hand, can be time-rewarding.

Sports betting can be a form of investment. Like investing in company shares it requires a risk management strategy and some experience. When you don't have this experience the best is to rely on people who are expert in this field and learn from them. This is what The bet league does.

Can betting be regarded as a business or investment. I have seen people who are addicted to betting, they lose some while they win some just like doing business and investment. So can we say betting is an investment

Sports betting is a complete waste of time to me. I do not see any need to even mention it when people are talking about business. It wrecks so many peoples life and so I detest it with all of me. Better to find something doing to make money.

Is betting a business or an investment, the difference is very very clear, it is neither of the two, betting is simply gambling and it can never considered as either business or an investment.

 

[Kaindio Agnes Wanja]

In my own opinion,i can say that betting is neither an investment nor a business .
This one is very risky and this is gambling and it all goes with luvk

 

[Wolext]

To me I can't call betting an investment. Infact in the real sense , it can never be called an investment. But puting your money on something u believe will give you profit at the end of the month or a period of year, I can call that investment

Concerning what can said about betting been an investment or business. Well, we all know that it is gambling and the risk behind it is very high compared to that of business and more money can be made in a very short time like much much money can be lost within seconds or minutes. One can take it as a business too if one is not a greedy person because you have analysis and prediction to make on a football betting, so it depend on an individual view on it but dont be so sure of earning because anything can happen

 

[Adam13]

Betting is more of investment if you can call it that, as it involves high risk. Betting is wrapped in unpredictability and you needn't go through the stress of making certain things work unlike business. Therefore you cannot call it a business. Gambling can never be a business.

 

[Sad56]

We can neither say betting a business nor a business. We can label it as a Gambling. So it is gambling for sure because the out put is just in one moment, so we can loss or gain in just 1 minute so it is full of risk. Investment and business is not such risky.

In reality, wagering can help you to win or lose your money, and a company may win or lose your money. Gambling and industry are essentially the same. Yet gambling odds are smaller than a business' chance of making a profit. They are definitely not the same species, so betting is not a business.

 

[MizzLala]

Football betting is neither a business nor an investment. It is a gamble because, no one can say when you will win or lose.

I totally agree with you. I see many people here referring to investments when in actual fact, they are talking about very high risk gambling. I lose the will to live and despair. I mean where do you even start to explain to someone that gambling is neither a business nor an investment LOL?! You'd think it was self-explanatory because the word 'gamble' in itself says it all.

Betting on a game can be a form of investment. Like investing in company shares, it requires a risk management strategy and some experience. When you do not have this experience, it is best to trust people who are experts in this field and learn from them. That's what the Beat League does.

It is an investment for those who understand it not those who will accumulate up to 20 games on one ticket hoping it will all play.when choose few games that will give you 2 odds or 1.50 odds and you stake 500 or 1000 you make profit daily and at the end of the month you withdraw your money.that is investment.

 

[mayreeh38]

Betting is never an investment. Just like you rightly said, one gets addicted to betting, and I think anything addiction is not business. Although people have benefited from betting, but I won't advice that. Rather look for a nice investment to work with.

 

[Ralphjoe]

Betting cannot be termed as an investment for those that plays the game but for those companies that are into the business of gambling. It is a business for them as they make money from people playing the game with them.
