Is the saying "higher risk, higher returns" always true? Or are there scenarios where there's lower risk. but still high returns?

What are some scenarios whereby the latter is true? How do you go about deciding whether or not the risk is worth taking?

On average: higher risks = potential for higher returns

sometimes it is risky to not take a risk, an sometimes seemingly 'low risk' indeed is high risk

all things considered

Lower risk by proper diversification, but also not overly diversify.

higher returns by lowered risk and proper understanding of your investments.

Does it always mean higher risk = higher return?

Anyone still in the crypto/defi space earning yield? be it long term yield or short term high risk high return plays or be it trading perps/options?

For saving plans, do you prefer high flexibility with lower returns (Eg. saving accts, SSB, flexible insurance savings plans) or no flexibility with higher returns (Eg. fixed deposits, endowments) ?

Is it true that the higher the returns p.a, the greater the risk?

For unit trust, should one invest in ‘hedged’ class? TER is higher, return lower. For investment period of 20 years, does currency risk matters for investment in UT?
