Got nothing to do about being noble, more to do with sticking to my investment rules.

Put simply every stock I invest in I am willing to accept a 100% loss of my money.

In reality if things did go bad (for any stock I hold) and an announcement came out that was very negative I would expect to walk away with 25-50% of my original investment.

I don't pre-empt announcements and invest solely based on the fundamentals of the company. This comes from a combination of research into the company, its management team, product line, future potential, industry in which they operate, etc.

The next question that will probably be asked is why I invest in just "risky" stocks. Put simply I only invest where I see the potential for 10x my investment.

IMO, DYOR
