Coach Donnie OP : How much risk can you take?
When it comes to investing, risk and return may come hand-in-hand. If unwilling to take risks, one should not expect returns.
However, it could be dangerous when some only have their eye on the returns and neglect the risks.
So, how to balance risk and return? This depends on how much risk you can take.
Risk tolerance varies from person to person. This is mainly related to 4 factors.
The first factor is age.
A young man in his prime and a retired senior generally have different levels of risk tolerance.
Young people usually have a longer timeline to recover from their losses.
Therefore, they may be more risk-tolerant.
However, many elderly people live off pensions or savings, and may not have other sources of income, which can make them relatively less risk-tolerant.
A commonly cited rule of thumb makes it easier to approach the relationship between age and high-risk assets, such as stocks.
According to this principle, the percentage of stocks people may consider holding is equal to 100 minus their age.
For example, a 30-year-old investor may consider allocating 70% of their idle funds to stocks, while according to this rule, that percentage for an investor aged 70 should be within 30%.
However, this formula can be flexible. You can adjust it according to your situation. But, all else being equal, the principle is the older you are, the lower the proportion of your portfolio that you might want to consider investing in high-risk assets.
Coach Donnie OP : The second factor is financial status.
For example, if someone is well-off and has no debt and he is also single, then there is a lot less financial burden on his hands. But if he is married with kids, then living expenses are high, and he might struggle to make ends meet.
There is an essential difference between his risk tolerance level in these two situations.
The former is in good financial condition. A slight loss will not affect life. Therefore, the risk tolerance is relatively strong.
The latter's financial situation is already unstable. Losing money on an investment might result in a huge burden on life.
Therefore, the risk tolerance is very weak.
The third factor is individual risk appetite.
Everyone has different perspectives on risks.
Some people are conservative even when they are young and well-off. They simply do not want to take any risks, thus they are not the best candidates for high-risk investments.
Some people are more radical. Losing money will not rattle their mindsets. Thus they are willing to take high risks to gain possible high returns.
The fourth factor is the level of investment knowledge.
The essence of risk is uncertainty. Before investing, you will not know the profits or losses it brings.
If you have done your homework in asset analysis with the right investment mindset, you may become more capable of controlling the investment risks perceived by others as huge uncertainty.
Conversely, you'll be walking a thin line if you choose to invest in financial assets that you don't know much about, especially those involving high risk.
To sum up, the investment risk that you can take depends on your age, financial situation, risk appetite, and investment knowledge. Before investing, we must know our situation, and not act on impulse.
