I'd like to ask you, Dan Thompson, what is the BIGGEST RISK?

Dan Thompson  

I think the BIGGEST RISK is to sit idle and do nothing to be so paranoid of risk that you take no risk. And there are some very predictable ways to get your money working and invested. And still keep the risk down. But it just kills me sometimes when I talked to somebody felt, in fact, they just talked to a potential client just yesterday, who's sitting with $1.7 million in a 4% CD. And just like said, That, to me is more risky than putting the money out at, quote, unquote, risk and having it grow for you. Because if you're not at least going to keep up with inflation, you're going backwards every single year.
