Chitchat Do u have the "won't happen to me" syndrome ?

The simple profound answer is you don't know.

You don't know until it happens to you.

However, we should not live our lives in fear of the worst. Instead, we should live our lives as it is given to us; to be happy and fulfilling every day.

I agree, but we should still be psychologically prepared for the worst, while refraining from fearing it.

fuck la who would think they would die in a bus crash? What do you expect them to do? Don't ever travel to JB then your chances of getting killed or robbed in JB will drop to 0.

Anyway i recall this memorable quote from my teacher. Nothing is ever guaranteed in life except death and taxes.

Yeah I don't know what to do and went into deep thoughts before writing this thread:o

This is a fulfilling enlightened - we don't know

to better understand the meaning of probability or the purpose of this thread,u have to study the gambler's fallacy.

The gambler's fallacy, also known as the Monte Carlo fallacy or the fallacy of the maturity of chances, is the mistaken belief that, if something happens more frequently than normal during some period, it will happen less frequently in the future, or that, if something happens less frequently than normal during some

just because three singaporeans died in a bus crash in malaysia,it doesnt mean the probability of you dieing in a bus crash in malaysia next is going to be higher or lower....its still the same 1 in 1xxxxxx or whatever the number is......just like avoiding to take a plane just because there was a plane crash recently is illogical.although if it is MAS airline theres probably a link to causation,so avoid MAS airline at all cost.those singaporeans odds of dieing in jb in a crash was the same 1 in a million,no one expected it to happen but they got lucky enough to hit the jackpot so next time remember to take down license plate to buy 4d.

In the gambling fallacy, probability is the killing subject.
I take a soccer match whereby a favourite odds of 1.2 vs underdog of 8, the actual probability of the favourite winning is not that high.
I would rather bet the underdog or else don't bet.

yeah, and so the next thought-provoking question here is, "what do you think"
