I'll bet Smile there are quite a few people out there who have shares on the stock market and anyone who "plays" the stock market is doing nothing more than gambling.

It is the informed knowledge that makes the difference e.g. if you play the lottery there is no way of predicting the numbers, but if you know your horse/football team's form, you may have an edge - or you may just want to bet on your favourite team to support them. Similarly, when buying a share, you may choose to read their annual report and do various ratio calculations on their figures - or you may just pick a household name because you like them. Where does the gambling begin and end?
