What is Risk?
Risk is the possibility of happening
something disagreeable or bad. But remember it is just a possibility.
Risk is not a distressing situation; it is rather an adventurous journey like a roller coaster with lots of exhilaration and fun.
Why do you need to take Risk?
Answer is simple Return is directly proportional to risk.
It simply means “Higher the risk,
Higher the return”.
Risk always pays off. If you really
want to achieve something enormous in life the pathway is only RISK. It is well said that:
“The biggest risk is not taking any risk …
In a world that is changing really quickly, the only strategy that is
guaranteed to fail is not taking risk.”
Mark Zuckerberg
(Facebook co-founder)
This depicts the importance of risk in
our life. A life without risk is a life without growth. If you don’t take the
risk, someone else will. It is up to you whether to read the history of
great persons or become part of the history.

is when you are young.

multiple investments options consisting of both risk free and risky
