In the past you wouldn't put your money in something you believed it would grow faster than. And if you get a chance to make it, you'll be able to make it, with a higher level of risk than before. If you're worried about investing in this thing, I'm afraid the world is much less scary than we thought! To me, investing on a market is like investing on a stock or bond where there is a risk component, but it's also a good way to increase value through the investment of your time. You can make big investments when they are easy, but if the future is uncertain, then you'll have a real life time risk to be managed. If you have problems on your side and are not able to solve it, there's very little chance of a positive return (or loss). So a market is not a guarantee of being a good investment. And in any case, most people (including me) are afraid of risk in the markets in general.

Almost nobody is afraid of risk right now, that's the problem.
