Re: Not taking risks can actually be good?

Found this article about not taking risks and it benefitting them. The story is not as relevant but what it said at the start was interesting to me. The risk-taking culture of gambling gets a lot of attention these days far from the floors of any casino: Not only in business — where a willingness to take a risk is an ordinary part of life, at least to a point — but in many other sectors, including government.

Zero risk-taking can lead to stagnation, but too much of it can lead to catastrophe, and the trick is in navigating the difference.

It got me thinking to how this can be applied in gambling. I know that almost all kinds of gambling require some sort of sacrifice and some risk taking but the levels vary. Do you reckon it is better to not risk that much in gambling and just keep playing low risk games and win even small amounts or do you always think that taking big risks is always the way to go?

Anyone that is taking risk beyond what they can afford is those people's business though taking risk is not actually bad per say because sometimes one can make it from there while sometimes one can lose a lot from it and the only time i think it is advisable to take risk is when someone have something that can cover the risk they are taking if it doesn't favor them or work as planned. Taking risk when someone knew they can not afford it means stupidity, I mean how will someone start up something that once they lose from it they are going back to square one I mean it is crazy.
