Risk and reward introduction발음듣기

Whenever people talk about investing, the terms risk and reward tend to come up a lot, and they usually tend to come up together.발음듣기

Somehow implying that the more risk you take, the more reward that you might be able to get.발음듣기

And that's actually what it is implying.발음듣기

But what I want to do in this video is give a little bit of an introduction to that, or a little bit of context, and a little bit more structure on how do you think about risk and reward.발음듣기

So let's say that we have $1,000, and we want to figure out what we can do with this $1,000.발음듣기

Well, one option is we could just put it into a savings account.발음듣기

So here is one option.발음듣기

So we could put it into a savings account.발음듣기

And in this situation, our reward - I'll start with the reward first - is we'll get - I don't know - 1% in interest per year, 1% annual interest.발음듣기

So after a year, we'll have roughly $1,010.발음듣기

We got 1% on our $1,000.발음듣기

So we get a little bit of a reward.발음듣기

What's our risk?발음듣기

So the risk here - I'll write risk in a different color - what is the risk here?발음듣기

Well, if I'm putting it into a savings account - and I'm assuming I'm putting it into an FDIC insured savings account.발음듣기

Let me put that over here.발음듣기

If you do open a savings account, it should be FDIC insured.발음듣기

That means that it's being insured by the Federal Reserve.발음듣기

Which means that if for whatever reason that bank were to fail, below some limit, the Fed will insure your money.발음듣기

So even if this bank fails, and it loses all of its money and everything, you'll still get your deposit back.발음듣기

So if you're investing, or if you're putting money in an FDIC insured savings account, your risk is essentially 0.발음듣기

You are guaranteed to get that $1,000 back, regardless of what happens to that bank.발음듣기

So you have very little risk there.발음듣기

But you might say, look, you know, this is a good risk, but I feel like I can get more than 1% on my money, let me think about the other places that I could invest it.발음듣기

Well, you could - and obviously I'm not going to be exhaustive on all of the different investment options, I just want to give you a sense of risk and reward.발음듣기

You could say, well, maybe I could lend to the money to a very reputable company.발음듣기

So let me say, lend money to reputable company.발음듣기

And maybe this company has billions and billions of dollars in assets.발음듣기

It's been around for hundreds of years.발음듣기

It generates cash on a regular basis.발음듣기

There's really very few circumstances in which you could imagine that this company would not be able to pay off its debt.발음듣기

And you lend money to a reputable company by essentially buying their bonds.발음듣기

When you buy a company's bonds, you are lending money to that company.발음듣기

So that's just the way you should think about it.발음듣기

So the reward here, if you lend your money to this company, they will pay you 6% in annual interest on your $1,000.발음듣기

So 6% on the first year, you'd get $60.발음듣기

This is six times more than what you were getting in the savings account.발음듣기

What's the risk here?발음듣기

Well, it's not 0 anymore.발음듣기

It's not FDIC insured.발음듣기

The Federal Reserve isn't saying that they'll either give the money if the bank goes out of business, or they'll print the money if they don't even have it.발음듣기

Here, the risk is that the business defaults on the loan.발음듣기

So the company itself might go bankrupt.발음듣기

If it goes bankrupt, then all the people that the company owes money to will go after that company's assets.발음듣기

But maybe you are low on the pecking order, or maybe the company doesn't have enough assets to pay everyone back.발음듣기

So there is some risk.발음듣기

Any business could go out of business, you never know what might happen.발음듣기

But since this is a very reputable company, and as we said it has a lot of assets, it has a very stable business, it does good in boom times and in recessions, this is a low risk of business default.발음듣기

So I'll write, low risk, right over here, because we're assuming it is a reputable company that has a lot of assets, and all the rest.발음듣기

Now let's say that even that 6%, you know, it's all right, but you feel like you could get more.발음듣기

You could do better.발음듣기

So let's say that you have a friend who is a - let's say that he's just starting his career as a doctor, so he says he has a nice, stable job.발음듣기

So he's just starting his career as a doctor, so stable income.발음듣기

He's making $200,000 a year.발음듣기

But he's just out of medical school, and he figures he wants to buy a house.발음듣기

So he's just starting, and he wants to find people who can help him with the down payment on the house.발음듣기

So here, your reward.발음듣기

And he says, anyone who's willing to lend to me, I will give them 8% annual interest on their money.발음듣기

And it looks pretty good, stable income, it's only $1,000.발음듣기

He's not buying an outlandishly expensive house.발음듣기

He's buying a $200,000 house on which he wants to put a $40,000 down payment.발음듣기

Seems well within his means to pay it.발음듣기

But there's always some risk that he doesn't pay. Who knows?발음듣기

Hopefully this doesn't happen, but maybe something happens to him, himself.발음듣기

Maybe he's not able to work as a doctor.발음듣기

Maybe something happens to his health.발음듣기

Maybe he has of some type of addictive personality, and he likes to drink away all of his money.발음듣기

Or he likes to gamble it away, and that's actually why he needs loans to begin with.발음듣기

So there is some risk.발음듣기

There's a risk that he doesn't pay.발음듣기

But by all indications, he looks like a pretty safe character.발음듣기

But it's definitely riskier than this company, because you have no assets to go after if he doesn't pay.발음듣기

Companies can't randomly get hit by a bus, a human being can.발음듣기

Companies, for the most part, cannot become alcoholics, a human can. Who knows?발음듣기

We don't know.발음듣기

But there are definitely more risks associated with this individual doctor who does not have assets you can go after.발음듣기

But maybe this is also not enough reward.발음듣기

You're like, you know, I heard that I can do even better than this in the stock market.발음듣기

So you look at another option.발음듣기

So let's say you invest in the market.발음듣기

And you're just going to invest in a bunch of - a broad portfolio, kind of investing in the market as a whole.발음듣기

The reward here would be expected return of the market.발음듣기

So you look at historical results in the market and you say, look it, goes up and down every year.발음듣기

But over long periods of time, it looks like people - and this isn't the exact number - but it looks like people have averaged approximately 10% per year.발음듣기

So that looks pretty good, but what's the risk?발음듣기

Well, the risk is that this expectation is just based on what the historical returns in the market were.발음듣기

There are huge periods of time in the market - I'm talking 10, 20, 30 years where the market is flat.발음듣기

Where the market could even go down.발음듣기

In any given year, the market could go down in the double digits or in the 30 , 40% even, in a really, really bad year.발음듣기

You really aren't sure whether you're going to get your 10% per year.발음듣기

So I would say the risk here is volatility.발음듣기

And volatility just means it could go up and down.발음듣기

It jumps up and down.발음듣기

It's not going to be a constant upward trend, like your savings account will be. Volatility.발음듣기

And you have a good chance that you could actually lose the money that you're investing.발음듣기

It could go down in any year, in any month, in any five years, in any 10 years.발음듣기

So once again, it seems like a kind of risky thing.발음듣기

And you can very easily lose everything.발음듣기

And let's say that even 10% isn't enough for you.발음듣기

You say, hey, I want to look at things that maybe I can get even a better return.발음듣기

So you have your brother-in-law, who's been out of work for a little bit.발음듣기

So let me write the brother-in-law right over here.발음듣기

Your brother-in-law has been out of work for a little bit, and he says that all he needs to start his new guaranteed money making scheme is $1,000, so he can buy the equipment, so that he can start it up in his garage.발음듣기

And the reward - And there's multiple ways we could set up the reward.발음듣기

We could make it so that he borrows money for you.발음듣기

We could make it so that you own part of the business.발음듣기

So let's say the reward is, you get a 50% stake in the business.발음듣기

And, let's say that your brother-in-law is right, and this becomes a million dollar business.발음듣기

So this is a very, very, very, very high reward, if what your brother-in-law is telling you is correct.발음듣기

But what's the risk?발음듣기

Well, the risk here is obviously that he's not correct and that he squanders all of your money.발음듣기

So lose everything.발음듣기

And not only could you lose the monetary money that you put in, it could also ruin your relationship with your brother-in-law and maybe your spouse.발음듣기

So, risk relationships.발음듣기

Maybe I should put, you risk family happiness.발음듣기

Once your brother-in-law loses all of your money, it won't be so easy at Thanksgiving anymore to have a civil conversation.발음듣기

So in general, the overlying - I probably did more of these scenarios than I needed to - but I think you see the general trend.발음듣기

The more risk you take in general, the more of reward you should expect to get.발음듣기

Or the more reward that you're expecting to get, there's probably some risk there.발음듣기

And if there's something that looks like it's really safe with the really high reward, one of those two things are probably not true.발음듣기

So if we were to plot all of these, and I haven't really quantified - I haven't given you a way of measuring risk.발음듣기

In future videos we can think about that, and academics have thought about ways of measuring risk.발음듣기

So that's risk and reward, if you plot it all over here.발음듣기

So the savings account.발음듣기

It's 0 risk.발음듣기

So this is the savings account over here.발음듣기

It's 0 risk, and your reward is 1%.발음듣기

So this is 1% right over here.발음듣기

The lending to a reputable company.발음듣기

It's a little bit higher risk.발음듣기

So this one right over here.발음듣기

It's a little bit higher risk, and your reward is 6%.발음듣기

So let's say this is 6% right over here.발음듣기

So it's a little bit higher risk.발음듣기

I'm just saying risk is increasing.발음듣기

If you lend to the doctor.발음듣기

So let me pick another color here, that I haven't used.발음듣기

If you lend to the doctor, once again, the risk is a little bit higher than lending to that company or the savings account.발음듣기

Once again, a little bit higher reward.발음듣기

Little bit higher reward.발음듣기

You now have an 8% reward.발음듣기

Investing in the stock market.발음듣기

Let me pick a color I haven't used yet.발음듣기

Investing in the stock market, Once again, higher risk, but also a higher reward.발음듣기

Maybe 10 per year.발음듣기

That's 10% right over there.발음듣기

Your brother-in-law, super high risk, probably off the charts over here, but also super high reward.발음듣기

So maybe it might be like that.발음듣기

But the general idea is, the more risk, the more reward.발음듣기
