7-28-26 Do You Really Know Your Risk Tolerance?
About this episode
Everyone says they're comfortable with investment risk—until markets actually decline.
Lance Roberts & Jon Penn discuss why true risk tolerance isn't measured during bull markets but during periods of fear and uncertainty. We explain the difference between financial capacity and emotional tolerance, why investors often overestimate the amount of volatility they can handle, and how emotional decisions can permanently damage long-term returns.
