Traders vs. Investors: Trading and Investing Explained/Compared in One Minute

Way too many people wrongfully believe the terms "investing" and "trading" are interchangeable. In other words, that all investors can call themselves traders and the other way around.

That's hardly the case.

As you're about to find out today, we're ultimately all investors in one way or another, whereas the same thing cannot be said about trading.

By explaining what trading and investing are all about, we'll be able to shed some light on the "traders vs. investors" dilemma by making it clear that no, being a trader and being an investor is not the same thing.

If trading and investing are compared in an easy-to-understand manner, it should be clear that essentially, we're talking about the difference between part-time and full-time, the difference between job and occupation, you name it!
