If you dream of becoming an entrepreneur, starting a business is a logical move.
Your comfort level as an investor depends on many facets, and level of debt. If you’re twenty-five years old, single, childless, and debt-free, you obviously have a far more tolerance for risk than a fifty-five-year-old nearing retirement with two children that are still in college.
You might be second-guessing if you are trying to pin down your own tolerance risk if might be doing it on your own and soul searching might work or might not. As stated, tolerance depends from person to person. Age groups, life status, financial cache and emotional threshold.

Give yourself One point for each answer A, Two points for each answer B, Three points for each answer C. And Four points for each answer D. If you scored nineteen points or lower, you’re a conservative investor who feels uncomfortable taking risks. You probably realize that you will have to take some calculated risks to attain your financial goals. Bu this doesn’t mean you will be comfortable doing so.
If you scored twenty to twenty-nine points, you’re a moderate investor who feels comfortable taking moderate risks. You are probably willing to take reasonable risks without a great deal of discomfort.O
If you scored thirty or more points, you’re an aggressive investor who is willing to take high risks in search of high returns. You are not greatly stressed by taking significant risks.
Typical behavior indicates that most investors either don’t understand risk or choose to ignore it. Here’s how we know. When the market is rising, money floods into stocks and mutual funds, even as each upward move in price increases risk and reduces potential returns. In a bear market, many investors engage in near-panic selling, even though each drop in price decreases risk and increases potential returns. For most investors, the two most effective ways to manage risk are to limit your aggressive exposure to a small part of the whole portfolio and to stick with your program once you have embarked on it.
