When people talk about risk many quickly point to cryptocurrency and forex as the biggest risks anyone can take. However this mid-year August 2025 was a real eye opener. For example my wife invested a lot of time and money in beans this year but when the market crashed the losses were heavy. This shows that even physical investments can be just as risky if not more depending on the circumstances.
All investments are risky, they’re just level to how risky they are against each other. Physical assets are very mush risky also especially when they’re being faced with natural disasters which are unforeseen and cannot be controlled. To some extent, digital assets like crypto and forex have stop losses that can limit your loss which is under your control, but this physical investments are far from that and cannot be controlled by human when hit by natural disasters. So just take your time to take on the risk investment your mind can condone.
