People make investments to make their money grow.

Any investment is always about risking money, because nothing on this planet can give a 100% guarantee to make a profit. However, the question of investment risks has become very hot today, when the core principles of the capitalism are being questioned for their validity (for example, check Michael Moore's movie Capitalism: A Love Story.

That is why - the mother of all investment rules is never invest the money that you cannot afford to lose.

And another rule - do your own "due diligence". Research the Internet for the info that bloggers are recommending about how to measure investment risks, how certain investment industries are behaving at the moment, and what risks they are subject to market.

The more you know about the nature of risks in the niche of your investments, the less "surprises" you are likely to face.
