stocks can be gambling if you dont know what your doing. you have to know how to control potential loss. if you entered the stock market and always thinking that it's risky, you can lose all your money, then you've lost already. have a trading plan that works and stick to it and do adjustments when needed.
my friends laugh at me when i quit my job last september to be a full time trader. but now, i can say that im on my way to being a successful trader.
im not a person who will display tech stuff on forums, brag about my portfolio, etc. im just posting here to encourage you guys to do what you want in life. and if you're passion is to become someone like jerry maguire, so be it. go for it.
my only advise is to start investing that money now, you'll be more motivated when you know you can lose.
