If he invests in the first opportunity there is a 70% chance that he will increase his assets by $75,000 and a 30% chance that he will increase his assets by $20,000. If he invests in the second option there is a 40% chance that he will increase his assets by $150,000 and a 60% chance that he will increase his assets by $5,000.
