When we hear the word "stock market", it is as
if we are gambling. However, it is not uncommon for such thoughts to come as we
have seen or heard such things since our childhood. Those people who used to
play in the stock market for example such and such uncles or brothers kept money
in the stock market and lost it all.
Most people know trading in the stock market as
a stock game. Of course, they cannot be blamed because they heard these things
their whole life.
One thing to note here is that if buying and selling
(trading) of the stock market is a game, then all the businesses in the world are
games because buying and selling are done in all kinds of businesses.
For example, if you want to make a product, first buy
whatever it takes to make it, then make it well and sell it again. Similarly, in
the case of service, we buy one kind of service, then generate another kind of service with the help of it, then sell it in the market again. The simple fact
is that any business is like buying and selling.
Now coming back to the stock market, why such a myth has
been created?
Because most of us don't understand this stock market, we
know that suddenly someone makes a lot of money here, and suddenly someone can become
completely broke, which means there is a very big risk factor here. One more
thing to add here is that this 'risk' thing is different for each person.
For example,
driving a car seems very risky to some and it seems very easy to others. Does
this mean that the person who drives a car well, is completely risk-free while
driving? No, not at all. The whole thing here is practice, yes the more times
you do it, the easier it will become for you.
“Risk comes from not knowing what you’re doing.” –
Warren Buffett.
Honestly, it is a little different from the other
trades because this is the business of businessmen, so before starting this
business you have to develop your skills very well or you have to incur losses
at every moment.
Before we start any job we get good knowledge about it
and then use it in day to day work, such as teachers, doctors, pilots, lawyers.
They all learn well before doing their own thing and then apply it to their own
profession.
But ordinary people come to the stock market
thinking that they will earn some easy money here. This idea never crosses
their mind that they have to learn something beforehand. They think it is very
easy to earn here. And YES it is very easy to earn here but the road to arrive there is not easy.
