Are these sentences correct:

1) You won't lose anything for the wait.
2) You won't lose anything for waiting.

Meaning: You won't lose anything by waiting. Waiting won't cost you anything.

Gratefully,
Navi.

HAPPY NEW YEAR.
 
No — they are both incorrect.
 
Navi, you are better off with "by waiting".
