Investing involves risk
- Stock market and mutual fund trading offers large potential rewards,
but also large potential risks. You must be aware of these risks and willing
to accept them in order to invest in stocks. About 90% of those who dabble
in stocks lose money. The material being presented here attempts to improve
the odds. However, everybody is different and there is no way of knowing
how each person is going to apply the information. Whatever you do, don’t
invest money you can’t afford to lose.
