Gambling

What’s interesting about the Powerball is that you could get five out of the six numbers right and think, “I was so close.”

Of course, you weren’t.

But the story we tell ourselves is that if we play again, maybe this time you’ll win.

It’s the same when playing Blackjack or the marketplace.

Past results do not indicate what the future will become. And since we desperately want to create a predictable future we will look for evidence that isn’t there. Unfortunately, casinos, social media feeds, etc. will use that against us.

A broken clock is correct twice a day.
