What if we shift the discussion from investor risk and reward to founder risk and reward? In the US it's possible for founders to win big and I suspect that is the reason why startups gravitate to the US. On the risk side, yes you can lose your shirt and so can your investors, but the system considers it normal to get up and try again.
I don't like the fact that we don't have much of a social safety net in the US but that can be considered one of the larger risks founders face as well.
