MYERS LAWS OF RISK Don't risk a lot for a little MYERS LAWS OF RISK Don't risk a lot for a little. Consider the odds of an occurrence. Accurate and timely information is critical to making good decisions. Risk Control works and it’s very important. Never depend solely on someone else's insurance. Risk taking presents an opportunity for economic gain. Verify the accuracy of all relevant information you receive. Common sense is still the single most important ingredient in risk management! Don't risk more than you can afford to lose.
