The more you have an affinity for risk, the better for you, but one must first be reasonable with the risks they are taking and be sure that they commit only the money they can afford to lose on it. Some will even disregard the last rule and it will yield for them better since they have the mind for it, so it is all about risk-taking.
 You've said it all, this statement really caught my attention because even though one has a good knowledge of the crypto space, they must be very cautious with investing only funds they could afford to lose, even though they're willing to give it a trial, they should be aware that the chances of losing is always higher compared to winning, lucks like that don't come regularly and one have to consider their health status before they venture into risk taking that would break them completely.
Many have taken it and have been happy, smiling at their banks and various wallets. How I wish I had even taken more risk in the second half of last year. In this crypto we are talking about, we have numerous opportunities, some risk-takers have made money massively, and even last year in the last mini-bull run, many were made happy with it. Imagine those who are lucky to invest in those coins that moved over 10 times, or those BRC-20 projects that moved more than that, or the BONK itself that moves upwards in tens of multiples. So, it is all about what you have, your mind for risk, and how you foresee and plan for it. 
 Well ìt all falls back to the fact that before you take a risk you must have knowledge about what your doing, you must be aware of the consequences of being unlucky, not people who're misinformed about a project but just want to try their luck and see if it would work for them, because it worked perfectly for a close pal of family. Yes before you want to risk investing in BONK, you must have a good knowledge about BONK. not someone who overheard people discussing about how they benefited from it and decided to try, without making proper research about it.
