If on the other hand, gambling thru trading then it's much better.

Yes trading is the only method I see that will give an average bitcoin user a decent profit for a long term.

Mining will also do but it's only suitable for a person that can deal with high amount as an initial capital as one rig isn't enough to make you profit for a long run.

Trading has an potential to make us rich in future only if we take all the results in positive way, so even if you loose at initial stage, you need to keep on learning and that will help you in future.

 Its a long long way, and not very easy... and only few will make it...
and in order to achieve this goal it is not going to be easy. I have been adding to the ways I am earning bitcoin from the day one when I earned my first bitcoin (satoshi) through faucets.
the second method is signature campaigns that is a side project for earning some small but good amounts.
then I added trading to the list and has been doing it so far in order to make more bitcoin everyday.
and these days I am planning on some additional ways like creating website with good traffic and earning through advertisement.

but all of these require hard work that since I have some free time and I spend it online and on my computer, I can manage to spare.

My plan to get rich with the bitcoin will start from now because i need allot of information about the bitcoin before you can start with making money with bitcoins so more information causes more money.

So it means that your profit requires a long wait. Because win/lose always have a balance.
If your loss is always small in trading, so does the profit.

I also do not have a plan to become rich with Bitcoin but if I get the chance to become rich with Bitcoin then of course I would take it.
But I am not hoping for it to happen, I am good with my life as it is.

I just joined the boat today, so I'll probably have to wait a bit before just thinking about becoming rich. Learning the basics seems a better plan for me .

Bot can't help you to get rich because bot's are farming cents of bitcoin where it takes years or more years before you get 1 bitcoin in your life i will bet that you can earn 0.001 per month estimated for me try to make your account more interesting and rich the jr. member so that you can able to join in sig campaign.

He said boat, he did not say anything about faucet bot, you got him wrong man. He said he just joined the boat which means he just joined the bitcoin community so he will have to learn the basic things first before he could thing of getting rich through it.
