Investing vs Gambling

I thought that this chart was an interesting one because it shows how risky it is to invest in Corporate America. If you are considering investing you might do well to consider lower-risk value-oriented mutual funds and bond funds.

These types of investments take longer to mature and do not earn like riskier growth funds but in the long run shield you a bit from the mega-losses these folks on the left have seen.

Whatever you do remember that investing considers the long term.. anything else is just gambling.
