You answered "trying" as something that "is ALWAYS worth it" - which was OP's question.

If you now say you need to "weigh the pros and cons" - which I agree - then trying it's not ALWAYS worth it, no?

Then as someone else commented, each person has their own risk tolerance, so once each person weigh the pros and cons, trying will be worth it for some and not for others.

So answering "trying" to "what's something that's always worth it" is rather paradoxical, as what you probably meant then was "trying it, but only when it's worth it".
