Wealthy people look to maintain their wealth or make 2-5% above inflation while keeping risk ultra low.
Poor people go for ultra risky gambles to try and make 10,000% returns.
This isn't how you get rich, folks.
You need to build something that generates you big money, consistently for a long period, then do your very best to not lose that money over the long term. That's the only way it's done.
The only time you want to risk more money is if it's in your own venture, where you control more of the variables, but even then the vast vast majority of people who make it big do NOT risk their money. They put a little money into a medium risk, high reward business and get others to put up money too.
