 playing the stock market
We buy lottery tickets, enter contests or spend hours building a business or playing the stock market. We're sure when we have plenty of money, we will be happy. But will we?
I doubt whether I can rewrite the underlined part as the following without making a change in meaning.
Moreover, I'm especially troubled by the phrase "playing the stock market." Is it right to utter "playing the stock" or "investing in the stock market?" Your advice? Thanks.
