泥中蟠龍's Game愛歌 [A love song for games of the dragon waiting for an opportunity] Adieu 2015!!! (Part1)

泥中蟠龍 's Game 愛歌 [A love song for games of the dragon waiting for an opportunity]   Adieu 2015!!! (Part1)   The year 2015 is coming to an end soon. This column would be probably released in the new year. I feel like to blame a love who dumped someone before one can barely go 10lis — approximately equal to 5kms — , however, I want to let the year 2015 go and have meaningful time looking back over the past year.   To begin with, many highly popular RPG(Role-playing game)s have been released in 2015.

泥中蟠龍 's Game 愛歌 [A love song for games of the dragon waiting for an opportunity]   Vitamin and painkiller   As I mentioned several times before, I am a venture capitalist who specializes in investment in the content industry. In the area of investment, as much as anywhere else, there are lots of proverbs or sayings. One of the most well-known maxims is probably "Don't put all your eggs in one basket". This is a piece of advice which means that an investor should not concentrate all resources in one area, no matter how attractive it is, as one could lose everything — in other words it means that the investor should reduce risk factors, which may be left out on review, through diversified investment. It also means that a low loss rate is more important than a high rate of return in the long term and focusing on a specific area is little short of gambling.
