From my perspective i think business is simply the casual commerce that we all know, i.e the buying and selling of commodities. While investment is a monetary asset purchased with the idea that the asset will provide income in the future.

Investments and business are similar in that both need you to commit some money in anticipation of future profit or benefit. The key difference, however, is that in business, you are actively involved in management while in investments, your role is more passive.

Business is something that you manage yourself and monitor yourself. Whereas investemet is something that you only monitor on daily basis and you do not have any control over management. You can have control but its just limited because it is the management who controls the decision of the business you have invested in. So, yes, both of these terms are different.

I think I like how you broke it down here so it looks simplified so I understand that, when you have people that work for you maybe in your business that is business but when you put money aside for profit later it's investment.

To know the difference we have to explain what investment and business is. First let’s take investment and ask Wikipedia for the definition. Investment is the commitment of money or capital to purchase financial instruments or other assets in order to gain profitable returns in form of interest, income, or appreciation of the value of the instrument.


Whew. Alright how about we talk that in English. Investment is just placing cash in something in the expectation of making a benefit later on. You can invest in numerous things, such countless examples of ventures like land, real estate, stocks, bonds, mutual funds, forex, and so forth....

What is business: A business is an association or organization that provides products and services and makes benefit subsequently. We have internet business, retail (buy&sell) business and other examples of business.

So in other words investment is just putting your money without being active in the activity that will bring money while business is one you will be engaged in the procedures and processes that bring about the profit!

The difference between investment and business is very clear and evident except for those who do not get the terms clearly. Investment occurs when you send your money on a errand to do a business on your behalf. In this case you are not involved but you entrust your money to a particular organization to use your money and give you some dividend at the end of day. Business is an aspect of investment but requires that you're physically present to run the operations.

We'll both investment and business are intertwined, Investment can be business and business can be investment. Saving for raining days or for future generation is investment and a having a business can also take up that purpose too, depending how you manage your business. And investment can be made into a business too, you can decide to invest and not do anything and make investing into business too. So like I said both are intertwined and they can serve the same purpose.

It all depends on the interpretation you give to each of them, I believe the word business and investment are use interchangeable to one another or each other, investment you may just let your money do the work without your involvement, while business is the other way round.
