Designed around your attitude to risk

With investing, you must be comfortable with the amount of risk you're taking. Investment returns are never guaranteed and the value of investments can go down as well as up, so you may get back less than you paid in. But, generally, the higher the potential return, the greater the risk of losing money. And the lower the return, the lower the risk.
