Not even. It's a corporation you can walk away from it. The risk narrative is the current preferred reason to justify gross inequality caused by power imbalances. It ignores that every participant is taking a risk. It's just some manufactured narrative designed so that we'd think "well alright" and not question the unjustifiable disproportionate gross inequity of all the reward going to those with the smallest risk because of how structural power works. The lowest wage worker living paycheck to paycheck has wayyyy more risk exposure than someone like me who has skated by trivially without a paycheck for over a year. The idea that my investment portfolio entitles me to the profits because of some immense risk I'm taking is clearly totally manufactured bullshit that's used to shape public opinion. I could lose every penny without affecting my quality of life at all. Literally zero effect. The risk is purely abstract. It's not material in the slightest
