Chances of making 100X through S&P500: 100 percent
Changes of making more through gambling and not losing money: 0.0000000000001 percent
Big difference

Op, what is the difference between gambling and investing?
Flashy_Ad_3383 t1_jef8hzq wrote
Gambling is when you put your money into something where the risk of losing it all is basically 100 percent.
Investing is when you put you money into actual long term safe, yet highly profitable investments. Such as the S&P500.

Jo are the heads also talking about leverage, factors, portfolio strategies, arbitrage, volatility, hedging or special situation investing? If they only talk about how to best stroke their cocks I'm not interested.
Buffet invested in nearly bankrupt companies, puts all his eggs in one basket and takes leverage to the next level with his insurance companies. I think you took the wrong guy for an example.

I'm about 40.
I figured it up and if I invested $100 when in 2000 that adjusted for inflation with dividend reinvesting it would be worth $154 today. Sweet.

The problem with this post is that you are assuming the US economy will be as productive as the past 30 years. There is a real probable change that as global competition rises in productive areas, e.g., manufacturing, technology, etc. The US share of global market contribution decreases. The S&P500 has a decent portion of companies that rely on economic rent to generate profit and increase share price. Whether you like it or not, the us relies not only on citizens becoming educated enough to produce wealth through knowledge, but also from importing a lot of the brain power from other countries. Just pay attention to the trends. I do think S&P500 will increase as we are a productive country, though it's arguable that we will see the same magnitude of increase as we've seen in the last 30 years..

In 40 years, I will be in my 70s.
What am I gonna do? Get buried next to a moldy pile of money?
Also keep inflation in mind. It’s 100x in nominal terms. More like 20x in real terms.

And you would have to wait 40 years to collect $11,000. Which obviously is worth a lot less today than $11,000 in 1980.
In your hypothetical example, this investment would have an absolutely negligent effect on my quality of life.
