61% of Americans invest in the stock market—more than any other major country. But here’s the catch: 70% of retail investors lose money. So why do they keep coming back? This isn’t just about investing—it’s about gambling.
From the rise of 401(k)s to the dot-com bubble, day trading, and meme stocks, this video unpacks how the U.S. Stock market became America’s favorite casino. And what happens when you mix economic uncertainty with a deep-rooted need to take risks? Well... You get something even wilder.
Somehow Wall Street, sports betting, and the American Dream all tie together.
