      It’s really not.

      There are so many ways to invest smart. Hell, it’s legal for congresspeople to insider trade (like Nancy Pelosi, Ted Cruz, and others) and there are whole-ass ETF’s you can invest in that just follow those legislators’ investments so you can piggyback on their trades.

      Gambling is for people with no patience to read or wait for a return. That’s the long and short of it.
