Read the concepts below and you'll manage your book of business like Warren Buffett runs Berkshire Hathaway.
At the core of Musicfox sits risk. It's a funny concept, and one most of us deeply understand and misunderstand, at once. Risk can be defined in many different ways; here, we'll see it in two lights, quantitatively:
- volatility, or how much something moves around, over time, and,
- loss-aversion, or a tangible dollar amount beneficial parties are willing to lose in order to gain some tangible dollar amount.

Volatility: we typically define this as the square-root of a time-series' variance. This is synonymous with
Loss-aversion: on average, how much is the average professional for your average artist type willing to lose, in order to continue operations? {% endhint %}
As you may have guessed, the risk concept we dove into above has little meaning without its complement, return or reward.
This is the one we all understand: stay away from the cookie jar and mom gives you another cookie. Get involved early and she puts you in time-out.
