Taking
risks
 is very pivotal in inhabitants'
lives
 when they would like to improve their quality of
life
 not only their private
lives
 but
also
 their career
lives
. In my opinion, making a decision to take
risks
, so can bring the most benefits for citizens. In
this
life
, people face a lot of problems in their
life
 which are matters that must be overcome
instead
 of avoid them.
However
, when the residents take
risks
,
then
 they will obtain some obstacles and these obstacles will carry negative effects from them. Adaptation in a new environment,
for instance
, is
one
 of the minus issues for them. They have to need time to adapt to the new condition and sometimes can spend energy and money to do.
For example
, Eric Tohir,
one
 of the great businessmen in Indonesia, has to spend much time and money when he expand his business to a sport sector when he made a contract with
one
 famous football club in the world namely Inter Milan, and he became the owner of the club.
Moreover
, another drawback is having to learn about a new sector. Based on the example mentioned above, Eric Tohir has to study everything in terms of sports
in particular
 football since the business area is new for him.
On the other hand
, there are positive impacts when people take
risks
. If the citizens would like to be successful in their businesses and their personal
lives
, they must take
risks
.
For example
, Raffi Ahmad,
one
 of the well-known public figures in Indonesia, has
risks
 when he developed his business in the movie industry when he build a production house.
This
 step is a risk for him because he has to adapt and learn anything related to
this
 sector.
As a result
 of taking
risks
, Raffi Ahmad has become
one
 of the rich people and the best producer in the film industry in Indonesia. In conclusion, putting
risks
 is crucial for human
lives
 for it can bring huge benefits by improving their quality of
life
 even though there are a few detrimental impacts. I ti
