Life and Shares: Ep 03 - Is trading gambling?

  • Summary

  • For the first two months of COVID, nearly 5,000 Australians opened an online trading account… every day. Eighty percent of them lost money.

    So, is trading gambling? We speak with a clinical psychologist who’s concerned about the lack of awareness and resources for people addicted to trading. We also speak with co-founder of the International Day Trading Academy Cameron Buchanan, who admits that while trading is gambling, he thinks there’s an essential difference.

This podcast is presented by The Ethics Centre, an independent not-for-profit that advocates for a more ethical society.
