If you make a product and take it to market like all the other companies then you make money, nothing magically happen that would cause "risk".
What is true is that the more passive a business is, the lower the returns. Real estate and passive stonks are the bottom of the barrel, you need a huge capital to get paltry returns, while something like a law firm can create value equal to 5 times its working capital.
Buying a truck and paying a trucker can give you 30% annual returns, renting a home gives you 6% returns.
