Risk & Diversifying

Quick Recap

• Every investment carries risk — the real question is always how much, and whether you can handle it.
• Diversifying spreads your money across different companies and sectors so one failure doesn't sink you.
• Only invest money you won't need soon — panic-selling during a downturn locks in losses that would otherwise recover.
• Risk tolerance is personal; there's no single "correct" amount of risk for everyone.
