What does it mean when someone says ''rather risk it all than play it safe' ? Please super curious my ex wrote this and I wanna know what it could mean.

For example: He could be risking his entire worth on a risky venture or stock purchase rather than putting the money in a bank insured CD.
It also could mean he is going to do something he has always wanted to do that has a high degree of risk to it, say skydiving, but has always played it safe and gotten his thrills with something safer and closer to the ground.
It could also mean he has always done the safe things, things with little risk to them. Now he wants more excitement in his life and is planning to do more exciting things; things with more risk to them, more thrills.
