RE: Frameworks Issue #8: Certainly Uncertain: A Perspective on Gambling

in #steemitbloggers8 years ago

My parents used to told me in life everything is an investment, that includes gambling. You need to know who you are, what you have and then invest them wisely. There's a period of time my family went through a very hard time due to unavoidable natural disaster. Our finance closed to zero, and with 6 children to feed, my dad took the last RM10 he had and went to play mazhong, a few hours later he cane back with hundreds of ringgit. Many time in the past he had to do so. He was criticized by many because of his gambling. But my stepmother stood beside him because she knew he took the high risk investment with his skill. Off course he is not a avid gambler who doesn't shoulder the responsibility as a adult, husband and father. So is crypto a gambling? Yes. Is crypto an investment? Yes. What determines it is how you handle it.
