I cannot stress this enough. Just because you aren't rich doesn't mean you are a bad person or that you failed. And just because you are rich doesn't mean that you are a good person or succeeded.

Something that confuses a lot of people is the concept of diversification. Diversification is when you have multiple different types of investments so that your risk is reduced. Risk never goes away, no matter what anybody tells you. But if your investments are diversified, you won't lose everything if one investment goes down in value. Basically, it really is like a salad bowl. Let's say your investments as a whole are the bowl and everything in it. If you have just one type of investment, like just having a bowl of lettuce, your whole experience of whether that salad is good hinges on the quality of the lettuce. It better be some dang good lettuce. Instead, you need to have multiple types of investments, such as nuts and fruit so that if the lettuce isn't perfect, the other ingredients make up for it. Let's take that one step further and introduce the concept of choosing individual investments within a category. Take for example the nuts category. Do you want walnuts, pine nuts, almonds, or cashews. You may decide that you want two investments in that category and select pine nuts and almonds. That's the same as choosing two large companies to invest in. But you don't want to put too many nuts in your salad or you can't taste the other things. It's all about balance. Just like a balanced salad is better for your health and has more satisfying results, a balanced and diverse portfolio will be as well.
