Big gamble in my opinion. 2.

Stock market is an investment, and as such is still a gamble.

If you want to get rich tomorrow, gambling is the only way to go. 

That's just gambling though.

.: Quote from @JD Martin: Quote from @David Pike: If you invested $100k and then put $19k in for the capital call, you would potentially get your capital call back ($19K) plus 25% of the $100k so $25k.So you're looking at either a $75k loss if you gamble the $19k, a $100k loss if you don't participate and are wiped out, or a $119k loss if you participate but are still wiped out.

But it’s a bit of a gamble on how long that will take to happen, and if it will actually happen.
