The good things about having a conservative portfolio of investments: there’s less danger from stock market fluctuations, and it’s likely that you can reach your predicted investment targets.

At Columbia Business School, advisors say the disappointment can be avoided by reminding yourself of your original performance goals and how much risk you were willing to take.
