Über diesen Titel

Narrated by AI. Written by Victor Idoko.


Most investment strategies don’t fail because they’re wrong.

They fail because they don’t match the person holding them.


In this episode, we unpack one of the most misunderstood concepts in investing: risk capacity vs risk tolerance—and why confusing the two can quietly derail your long-term wealth plan.


We explain the critical difference:

Risk capacity — what your financial position can afford

Risk tolerance — what you can emotionally handle


Because the right strategy isn’t just mathematically sound—

it’s one you can actually stick to when markets fall.


We cover:

• The “sleep-at-night” test and how to apply it honestly

• Why most investors overestimate their tolerance

• The common risk mismatches between couples

• How to structure a shared strategy when partners think differently

• A practical framework to align risk across super, investments, and cash


For dual-income households, this matters even more.

Because misalignment doesn’t just impact performance—

it can lead to poor decisions at the worst possible time.
