    Risk aversion is a fundamental element in asset pricing, contracts, and insurance. Most of economists have drawn conclusions that relative risk aversion coefficient (RRA) is no more than 2 in theory. However, the small coefficient can´t explain some economic phenomenon very well. Most of experiments researches achieved the RRA according to income or loss, but the risk aversion should measure people´s attitude toward wealth not just income with the original definition. This paper estimated the RRA according to the proportions of investing in the total wealth. And the conclusion is that RRA has much larger scale and it even can reach 20.
