There is nothing safe. Let’s start with this fact which is applicable in all investments, projects, careers or life in general. In a volatile world, safety is an illusion. The risk is not in taking any risks. This is the mantra for successful and wealthy people. Managing risk makes it less risky. Risks are opportunities.  

Managing risk allows us to experience new things which open many doors and grow our experiences. Safety zone proponents are unaware of this rule. Either they never heard of it, or they misunderstood and misapplied.
