Yesterday stock markets sparked renewed recesssion fears as £49 billion was wiped off shares.
What are the key differences between gambling and investing?In short it is the interpretation of the individual actions taken to arriive at the result. If the decision is to speculate to accumulate, and the speculation has been based upon a hunch or guesswork , it is uninformed speculation and thus perceived as gambling.
If however the individual concerned researches thoroughly all materials facts and in considering them resolves to the action that is most likely to result in that persons favour, this would be considered prudent, calculated "an investment" despite there still being a degree of risk involved.
For example in such tumultuous times, for stock and shares and peoples nervous about not being able to access their funds quickly, they may indeed turn to a cash isa on the basis that their money is in a safe place. Perhaps they are encouraged by the words "tax free" and the statement that their money will grow quicker in that place, than an in ordinary savings account. isa rates may not be as safe an option as they at first seem.
This is not misleading it is indeed a statement of fact, but have the same individuals considered that the rate of return provided is less than the rate of inflation and the true purchasing power of their money is not keeping pace with the cost of living. Yet such action would still be classed as an investment, depsite allowing those funds into an area where it's true value will diminish.Not a very sensible investment nonetheless.
Nevertheless such action bears no comparison to taking a percentage of their hard earnt money and wagering on some old nag , running in a 5 runner field, because a friend of a friend whose uncle has it from the horses mouth "its a dead Cert'" Such action would be frivilous based on say so and lacking in research and strategy. Probably facilitated by whatever money the individual could lay their hands on at the time. Even the best prepared sporting gambles go wrong, much to the delight of the bookmakers who in the long run, (as is widely accepted always get their margin). Ask Fred Done, of Betfred and now the Tote.
In acting in a similar capacity to a bookmaker, transacting on specific events that match a stringent criteria, it is possible to generate exceptional rates of return. 84.15% tax free was acheived in 49 days with such a strategy. The 4 most poignant points are that
(1) It operates in a recession free market unaffected by general economic factors.
(2)No more than 10% of an individuals funds are ever risked on anyone event. Leaving the other 90% immediately accesssible.
(3) Profits are added immediately with the power of compound interest, accelerating the rate of growth, many times in a short space of time.
(4) Under existing legislation, due to the market this operates in in the UK, it is viewed by the government as gaming and no tax is payable on any profit and individual may take, provided that this process is not deemed their only source of income. (this does not constitute advice and only represents our understanding, every individual has a responsibility for their own tax matters)
The Cashtap ISA (Informed Strategic Accumulation) http://www.wherecash.com, was created from a quest to provide an alternative option.Through "seeking extraordinary returns for ordinary people" we believe that it can only be good, for the overall economy as those people will in turn make purchases putting money back into the economy. Furthemore, such activity supports other industry and helps sustain employment.
It is even possible to get started in this using other people's money (OPM), by following a money transfer process, creating the individual a free money fund, with which to trade. This process is unlike other OPM processes, it does not require the individual to repay any interest or capital and effectively gives them an opportunity to progress Risk Free. This is not get rich quick scam rather a strategy for financial progression and it requires patience. That said progress can be swift and dramatic e.g 84.15% increase in 49 days.
So in summary in looking at alternatives distinguish as to whether you would categorise them as a gamble or an investment, to do that you must get all the facts!! A free report and the full story is available at http://www.wherecash.com
