Many people are gambling stock, rather than investing in stock. They think their stock gambling way is what investment is about. When they loss money, some may blame that investment does not work. 

Imagine a group of people who never encounter fire. When they finally saw one someday, they find it fun and start to play with it without learning how to handle a fire properly and to use it wisely. When they get themselves burnt, they blame the fire and tell their friends/relatives not to use fire as it will burnt them. 

But they are unaware that there are other people who has taken the initiative and time to learn how to use fire in a wise manner, and this has given them one whole lifetime of benefit, such as cook them warm food, give them warm water to bath during cold season etc.. 

The knowledge and ability to invest and managed one's finance prudently will serve one a lifetime of benefit - in the form of financially independent secured retirement, and give more time to ourselves to do things that we would like to do in our life. 

Through the working of the compounding returns, it is very much possible to accumulate enough savings to retire comfortably through working and investing in our approximately 4 decades of working life. The problem is not with the possibility factor, it is more on the part of individual willingness to start taking action of establishing one's retirement finance ourselves, rather than to push this responsibility to the state or to the next generation in order for them to enjoy life fully today. Instant gratification seems to be lifestyle.
