Critically reflect on the importance of the risk and return balance.  Consider the following:

· Can we ever have any return without some type of risk?

· If you take on a large risk, are you guaranteed a large return? Why or why not?

· What other factors play into risks that are not covered in the video?

· When have you had to consider risk and return in personal or professional decision-making?

Carefully review the  Grading Rubric for the criteria that will be used to evaluate your journal entry
