If you invest in index funds (instead of picking single stocks), you shouldn’t be too worries IMO.

E.g. something tracking MSCI World/All-World or just the S&P500 (US-only though).

You won’t get 100x homeruns (more like 10-15% avg returns/year), but you will drastically lower your risk of losing your money.
