An investment opportunity represents a potential financial venture that could yield returns over time, requiring an initial outlay of resources with the expectation of future benefits. It's essential to evaluate the risk, return, and time horizon of each opportunity to align with one's financial goals and risk tolerance.

A time horizon is the period over which an investment is expected to be held before it is liquidated or the period over which a financial goal is to be achieved. It is crucial for determining the risk tolerance and investment strategy, as longer time horizons typically allow for greater risk-taking and potential for higher returns.
