Why do brokers/financial advisors pretend different people have different financial goals?

Who goes to one of these and says "I want to make some money, but not as much as possible"?

Because it's not about that, it's about the time value of money, investment strategy, how much risk you're willing to accept, etc., etc.

Some people want the low risk slow growth and others are more willing to take chances on the home run?

I think I understand your question but it won't go over well here.

My financial websites lead me to believe that only black women are investing these days.

Do you think a 60 yr old that is financially independent has the same goals as a 30 year old that is just getting financially established?
Or maybe a middle class family with a job 401k vs a small business owner that has to create his own?
And on and on and on……

Risk is mitigated over time and it ultimately boils down to performance. Unless you're investing for a few years or less, risk should not be a concern.

Different people are willing to take different risks. Low risk investors have to accept the fact that they will have lower returns. Higher risk people have to accept that they may have larger losses.
Each person must determine their risk level.

Are you really making this argument?

I mean there obviously are but they should have no realistic expectations of big returns. For someone investing for the long haul, they don't have a plan other than "give me the best returns you can" and to pretend otherwise is dumb.

So invest everything in crypto then

financial advisors do not even know what risk tolerance means
telling people to avoid crypto/bitcoin over the last ten years was the riskiest advice anyone could give
fire them all

One day you can reflect on this thread and realize how myopic you are being.
