    It absolutely was luck. You didn’t get hit by a car driven by a driver with no insurance. You didn’t get a rare form of cancer which your own insurance won’t cover. You didn’t get suddenly laid off and have to move because there are no other prospects in your area with good enough pay. All of that is luck, not skill. All of it can wipe someone out financially.

      Driver w/ no insurance. Bury them under the jail.

      I am very sorry about the cancer, thats something I can’t comment on as I have no idea whats that like to deal with.

      As for the move well I don’t have enough info on the where to where and I wouldnt cause pssible doxxing. reddit was the worst of that.

        “I don’t know what it’s like to deal with cancer, but it definitely isn’t luck that I succeeded without getting cancer and ruining my finances.”

        Sure, pal.
