A forty niner refers to a miner or the set of people who were involved in the California Gold Rush. They experienced harsh conditions and challenges such as a hostile journey with lots of storms, lack of basic amenities such as food, clothing and proper shelter.

Due to all the challenges faced by a forty niner it is imperative to say they would have the ability to persevere, be patient, tough, rugged and experienced conditions related to it.

the correct answer is b

answer: a

explanation:  

stocks and bonds are the two main classes of assets investors use in their portfolios. stocks offer an ownership stake in a company, while bonds are akin to loans made to a company (a corporate bond) or other organization (like the u.s. treasury). in general, stocks are considered riskier and more volatile than bonds.

savings accounts are just money in a bank- they are insured by the fdic for up to 250,000.   very little risk

the average mutual fund holds hundreds of different securities, which means mutual fund shareholders gain important diversification at a low price. which means if one stock or bond drops it will have very little affect on the mutual fund - again very little risk
