Is it hard to handle the pressure of investing other people’s money?

I feel like it could be a big responsibility. Is there a lot of pressure behind that, or is it pretty easy to handle?

It is certainly a very big responsibility. Other people entrust you to manage their money so there is a lot of pressure and responsibility that come along with it. I think the key is to always remember that this will affect your clients' lives and you have a duty to do your best for them. It is real life with real consequences. This means there is real pressure. The best ways that I have found to deal with it is to get to know your client and really understand what their goals are and what is needed to achieve them. This should help you navigate the various investment paths. Also, always look out for the client's best interest, not your own or your company's. If you know what a client wants and apply your absolute best efforts to achieve this for them, it helps to alleviate some of the pressure because you are effectively working for them.
