Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Both feelings of loneliness and the perception of having more to lose can influence individuals to take fewer risks. Feeling alone might make someone more cautious as they may believe they have no support if things go wrong. Similarly, the sense of having more to lose (such as family, wealth, or status) can lead to risk-averse behavior to protect those assets.
