Good day everyone! I'm beginning a new series, which will be very interesting, informative and educative, titled, The Safe Way Of Taking Risks As An Entrepreneur. If you want to make it big in life(wealthy), you must have to take risk at some point in your life. Many people don't know how to take calculated risks, they just think and feel they should take a risk, but they don't ensure if it is safe to take such risk. In this article, I will be sharing with you all, one solid way to ensure that you are taking a safe risk.
Information Should Be Your Best Friend
If you want to feel safe taking risks, then information should be your best friend. You should live for information. You need to have all the latest information concerning your business. You need to be up-to-date with all latest happenings around your business. The most successful crypto traders, are those who don't just buy coin and hope it will rise, but those who read the whitepaper of a project, research the project thoroughly and feel safe taking the risk on the project. So many of us, just buy a coin without knowing it's use case. I have bought so many coins like that, and I'm yet to make any profit from them. That's blind and uncalculated risk. I had no information of the projects and yet I bought their coins because people were buying it. I followed FOMO(Fear Of Missing Out) and I know that's how majority of newbies in crypto also do.
Before taking a risk into any venture, you need to have full detailed information about the venture. A friend of mine, started a business of buying and selling of perishable foods. He was motivated to start the business because of what he heard. Imagine the price of an apple at location A is $1 and at location B is $4. Isn't that huge profits already. Without doing thorough research, this friend of mine, took the risk. Funny enough, he didn't calculate the cost of transportation of the goods from Location A to Location B. First error, because he didn't have the full information of business. He successfully transported the goods to Location B. He was already excited that he would have huge profits. Sadly, that wasn't the case. He went to whole sellers to sell his product, unfortunately they priced his product low. They priced it for $0.8. That's already loss already, plus cost of transportation. He didn't know the supply of the product was in abundance during that period, since it is the season for the perishable product. Also, he thought the price that normal consumers usually buy, is going to be same price with whole sellers. Okay, some of you would say, he should sell it himself, right? The issue is that before he sells quarter of the product, the remaining would have most likely be spoilt. In order, not to lose his total investment, he sold it for less the price he bought the product, making a massive loss.
From this story, he entered that deep shit because he didn't have full information of the business he was about entering. He didn't make the information of the business, his friend. If you want to take safe risk, you should always make sure you have complete information of the business you are about starting.
I hope you found this article quite interesting, educative and informative, if so, do well to leave your thoughts in the comment section below. Thanks for reading.
Risks are an integral part of the investment. One who wants to venture into the world of business and entrepreneurship should really do the homework! Apples or no apples are some basic mistakes. Seems like he did no homework at all. There is one more issue that is appalling. It's listening to anyone and starting ur business on mere instructions of a no-one.
He really didn't do homework at all, that's information is so important for every entrepreneur. Thanks for coming around @vixmemoon
