Risk Aversion Scale

In the below scenarios you'll be given an update about an investment. You can then decide to Sell, to Do Nothing or to Buy More.

Your choices are scored based on the riskiness of your answer and that helps to determine your risk aversion score. Your Risk Aversion score is then used to break down your portfolio between stocks, or your "risky" portfolio, and bonds, or your "risk-free" portfolio.
