Risktaking

Are you a risk taker ? Or not ? Depends I suppose on how you view a risk ?
Me I don’t consider myself to be one although I weighed up just now , looking at a few oranges with my mouth watering and posed myself a thought , was it worth gaining some vitamin C at the risk of getting a bad headache , which is what’s known to happen to me .
The orange won ,so really I must be a risk taker of sorts even if only a mini one . I shall now not dare risk a coffee today .

How about you ?
Do you throw caution to the wind on small things like this or gamble on a higher level ?

Re: Risktaking

Just getting out of bed is a risk for anyone of any age.

Re: Risktaking

No I'm quite careful really. If the odds seem in my favour, then maybe...but the biggest risk I take is getting my fingers bitten off when I rescue something from the dog that she shouldn't be eating

Re: Risktaking

I have been a risk taker all my life, I have done the craziest things, many of which could have killed me! I still throw caution to the wind from time to time.

Re: Risktaking

Well, I wouldn't risk being in a crowd of people, despite having both jabs & I don't remember ever taking a risk.

Re: Risktaking

That is one risk I don't take. My husband and I don't socialise even with our family at present.
