It is, except for the way that money is derived from the labour of the workers, and the fact that you’re not likely to make lifestyle changing amounts of money without already having a significant amount of money to gamble in the first place.
Not to mention the system is arguably much more “rigged” thanks to the major players in the scene, when you buy a lottery ticket you aren’t competing against giant corporations that spend millions on figuring out the best way to buy lottery tickets.
Well it’s like a lottery but with more variables and where better knowledge or analysis can mean some "players"are more likely to win than others. It’s inherently less fair than a lottery, which should be totally random.
By that measure, playing the stock exchange is just an advanced version of lottery.
My guess you never heard of stock manipulation.
