    Exactly, and it even sounds better:
    "Hi, I'm a daytrader".
    "Hi, I'm a gambler".

        Id rather have my money on something I will know the result of in 2 hours and double my money

        if you bet on a stock it could take years to double your money, if that will ever happen

            If you treat it like a casino you'll have casino like results.

              You will lose more in the market than sports

              The insiders chew up the squares when it comes to stock trading

                    And dont forget horse racing. So easy to bet online. What a freaking joke the US politicians are. Both parties are filled with morons and/or crooks. That much is clear.

                      The stock broker commissions are generally less when wagering on stock, but you do have to pay the commission on when you buy and sell whether you win or lose.


                      Can someone bundle several sport plays together and create a CDO? Oh yea, my bookie offers parlays. Can I get a credit default swap (CDS) on my parlay? Yea, arb off the individual plays with my buddies or at Matchbook.

                        commodities trading is REALLY casino like...i see NO difference between commodity options and betting o a football or baseball game. I've done both, and they are identical.

                          there are some major differences that actually make sports betting LESS RISKY for many
                          1) more sports books offer bonuses that can more than offset the juice than brokers
                          2) sports books have limits on bet sizes, whereas i can push a button and buy $200,000 of the riskiest stock in the world
                          3) other than selling calls/puts, no real way of scalping/hedging the stock market easily
                          4) stock market websites actually charge you to view their stuff, great sports sites like sbr give it away and even give you points for posting
