It's sad but a big chunk of what people spend their time on nowadays whittles down to a bet. Sure crypto is one example, but you can easily find yourself in similarly scammy territory in more regulated markets. Where you live, how you live, even where you work is a bet on how much you think you're worth vs how much the market values your work. Where you stick your retirement funds is a bet hoping for a prosperous post-work life. A normal sequence of life is looking more like a series of bets, to me anyway. Maybe it was always like this, but people just didn't look at it that way quite as much?
