Regardless of what is high or low risk, I've been thinking about it for a while, what would be the optimal ratio of low, medium, and high risk? related to the ral ? Low risk 50%, medium 25%, high 25%?

Risk is up to you, what you think is acceptable. I cannot answer that for you.

Also, you would have to define what you mean by low, medium and high risk.

For example: for me, high risk is penny stocks, junk bonds, and privately held REITs and i stay away from those.

This is a pretty broad question and it depends on your risk tolerance. Furthermore, some investments are simply bad, regardless of your appetite for risk. What do you define as "high risk"? Like crypto? Penny stocks? Options?

Question doesn’t really make sense. That’s not how you choose to invest

So many answers and degree of comfortability. Generally though you want higher risk earlier in your career (when young) and more balanced as you get close to retirement. But it’s such an open ended question, not even clear if you are talking stocks, retirement accounts etc.. ?
