what is meaning to put all eggs in one basket? i thought it refers to a economic behavior, and it means one only puts the money in a field. most people think it is unwise to put all eggs in one baskets, because they believe that it will increase the risk of bankruptcy. on the contrary, if we put eggs in different basket, we will receive more benefits. to be honestly, i'm not good at to financial management. we merely knows if we put eggs in different baskets,it can reduce the risk. that's all.
