Don't put all eggs in one basket.
Don't put all eggs in one basket.
「Don't put all eggs in one basket」呢句英文俚語直譯就係「唔好將所有蛋放喺一個籃子裏面」,意思係唔好將所有資源或希望寄託喺單一事物上,從而避免一旦失敗,就會損失慘重。喺香港,用呢句話喺金融投資上特別貼切,提醒人哋喺投資股票或者買樓時,應該要有分散風險嘅意識,唔係全部錢投喺一個籃子(市場或股票)上。除咗財務方面,喺日常生活中,同樣適用於計劃或抉擇,例如安排假期活動或是選擇職業道路,都要謹慎考慮,避免將所有期望集中喺一處,保持多個選擇,增加成功嘅機會。
