Is it true that in any investment, you expect to have fun and make money?

The answer could be partially true, but it also needs some careful qualification. If you find investing interesting, you're more likely to stay engaged and learn about it, which increases your chances of making informed decisions and potentially earning more money. If you're passionate about a particular investment area, you are more likely to put in the time and effort required to succeed.

Enjoying your investments can make the whole process less stressful. Stress can lead to poor decision-making, so finding enjoyment can actually improve your performance. When you are having fun, you are more likely to take a long-term perspective, which is often essential for successful investing. Investing should always be approached with a clear understanding of the risks involved. Expecting to always have fun and make money can lead to neglecting risk management strategies.

Further, it is realistic to expect that every investment will be profitable. There will be ups and downs, and losses are part of the process. Letting emotions drive your investment decisions can be dangerous to remain objective and disciplined, even when things are going well. Fun can mean different things to different people. For some, it might be the thrill of taking risks, while for others, it might be the satisfaction of contributing to a cause they believe in. It is important to define what fun means to you and whether it aligns with your investment goals.

Not all investments actually turn out the way you hope or expect them to turn out. There are some that would actually enjoy and make money, some you won't enjoy anything about it but still make money, while some might end in losses.

It could be fun for others whose wealth is immeasurable, but to those who invested for an interest to succeed financially may take the investment seriously so no time to consider an investment something to make a fun for themselves.
