There is a big difference between knowing something and experiencing something. You believe they can handle a riskier investment, yet your anxiety says otherwise.

Your investment risk level is not a 6% return or a 12% return. It is can you invest for a long time? Can you handle your emotions? Is your job stable? Is your life stable? You being able to not make a change when the market is panicking is only one thing that determines your risk levels

This week, Aaron Buchner shares a personal and somewhat humorous story about the risks he’s taken, from injuring himself in a soccer game after an 18-year hiatus to insights about risk tolerance and capacity in financial planning. He dives deep into understanding and managing risk to ensure you’re prepared for life’s unexpected turns.

Aaron discusses: 

• 
  
• Personal Risk Experiences: Aaron’s return to soccer and the physical risks involved
  
• Risk Tolerance: The mental ability to withstand market drops and the difference between theoretical and actual risk
  
• Risk Capacity: Financial ability to handle risk, considering income, debt, and lifestyle
  
• Investment Strategies: Diversifying investments and adjusting risk levels based on different accounts and personal circumstances
  
• And more!
