Men tend to be more risk averse than women
That seems like a mis-statement, considering the rest of your post. Men take fewer risks than women?
I'm a woman, and if I hadn't risked it all a couple of times in my life, I'd be broke. Perhaps some, not all, of my "investments" were lucky ones, but the only time I didn't invest in myself (such as any money I put into financial planners' control), I lost money. It's very complicated. I now think that, if I have any reservations at all, I don't make the move.
damn it! I changed the sentence structure and then didn't read it back properly. Mistakes, mistakes, mistakes....
Yes it is. And I guess there are always reservations, but with experience, they become more calculated, not as emotional.
Will have to edit again... Thanks for picking it up!
