Before We Dive In

Risk means different things to different people. Before we talk about investments, we want to understand what actually weighs on you — the life events, financial concerns, and uncertainties that shape how you think about your plan.

This is Part 1 of a two-part exercise. Here, you'll sort a set of risks based on how much they concern you. In Part 2, we'll explore how you feel about investment volatility specifically. Together, they give us a much fuller picture.

There are no right or wrong answers — if something doesn't apply, just skip it.

Anything Else?

This is your chance to share anything about your relationship with risk that the sorting exercise didn't capture.

For example: growing up in a household that experienced financial hardship, a parent who lost money in the market, a personal financial setback, or an inheritance that changed your relationship with money.
