And btw – There are a lot of gambles out there that people take daily… These gambles don’t give you the rush of gambling at casino’s. Bet on index funds. Bet on the S&P 500. Bet on buying a house. Bet on a Roth IRA or 401K. Bet on Yourself doing something amazing (having money in the bank when that big idea presents itself). There’s lots of things to bet on in this world besides cards, machines, sports, dice…
I have money invested in Equifax. That stock took a huge hit last week. I bought it when it was at it lowest point. So I’m betting on the fact that it will go up by 10%. My goal is always 10% now on stocks. I’ve made about $250 bucks so far investing roughly $5000k. Thats in just a few months. I bought a stock 1 month ago that is exactly at the same number when I bought it. I bought some S&P500 index stock a month ago and it’s gone up like .8% which is great. Basically what I’m saying is you can still take risks with money and try to earn off of money you save. But it doesn’t have to be such a risky endeavor. You also don’t need to double your money in hours. It may take months to earn just 5% but thats really not bad. It’s actually pretty freaking amazing. Save your money and invest in yourself. I’ve been looking at BTI as well which some of you Brits may know. 🙂
