While at New Mexico State, I invested money from book royalties and gambling winnings in stocks. But I was ignorant of the market as well as unlucky. The results were poor. I wanted to do better. Investments presented a new type of uncertainty, but the theory of probability might help me make good choices.
It's best to get this lesson with a small amount of money. Watching people blow inheritances on learning is a painful thing.
