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.
Everything has risk in life, not just in crypto as you have describe. I was once own a farm land and was about to harvest one of my supposedly biggest investment when suddenly a typhoon hit our country and all of my plantation was devastated.
And there was once a season for onions as well, my crop was really good but I don't know, there was a pests that grip our province and again, all the money that I risk was put to naught. It was a learning experience though, I will be honest that I cry, but I don't let that devastation carry me and so I just regroup. Just like here in Bitcoin or crypto in general, if you lost, then just stand up.
