- rxhernandez 9y agoEngineers have both basic math and statisitics skills and I've seen plenty gamble.
- fred_is_fred 9y agoGambling is entertainment, not an investment strategy. I assume physicists still go see movies, go out to dinner, or read books. Those too are entertainment.
- tonyarkles 9y agoI had a friend in undergrad who would gamble on Friday nights (poker, at the casino, if I remember right). Gamble, but not drink. I would bug him sometimes about the money he was throwing away. Then one day he said "Tony, you know what the difference is between my Friday night [at the casino] and your Friday night [at the bar]? There's some probability that I'll have more money at the end of the night than I started with." And I quit bugging him!
