Risque gamboling

We laud risk takers (especially when they win) but admonish gamblers (especially when they lose).

Gambling is often a case of knowing the odds but hoping that random chance (and perhaps a little skill) will edge ahead just enough to make it all worthwhile.

Risk taking is often a case of not knowing the odds but relying on skill (and a little random chance) to consistently win over time.

I don’t have the time of day to give to a gambler but I’ll happily support a risk taker.
