    wrong.

    if you're middle class or rich and can afford to ride out any storms, you'll always win at the stock market long-term.

    while sports betting is a wasteland long-term, regardless of your economic status.

    Of course they are similar.

    For example, a contrarian philosophy can be applied to the stock market and/or the sports betting market.

    The stock market is a positive sum game.Sports betting is a negative sum game.Other than that one huge difference, they're identical.

    They are exactly the same. Same with forex and options and reinsurance. It's all a bet.
