An investment and risk go hand in hand.

An investment and risk go hand in hand.
- vinceguidry 8y agoYes, but the difference between an investment and a bet involves the amount and type of risk. Investments generally don't disappear. Bets do. Also the expected rewards are higher too. If a company bets $20k in an employee, the best they can hope for is that the employee does a good job. Not that that bet doubles in value.

What do you think it means from the company's perspective to "do a good job"? A developer who does a good job will most likely double that $20k in a few months.
