Lucky Bastards
How do they do it? Those lucky few? Could it be the mesmerizing companion that even Chance can't take its eyes off, losing focus for just that single second.
Or are some just born at the exact moment in time that is reserved for these fortunate few.
It could even be that they actually have telepathic powers to control the the movement of the....no it can't be.
Or it is being the owner of that one object to which fortune is attracted to without choice or reservation. They just know. They can see into the future and only play when they know the odds are completely in their favor.
It's not knowing and playing 'all in' because chance favors those who are willing to risk it all.
Little boy answers the narrator.
"No it doesn't. Chance favors those who start saving early and invest with a reputable investment company".
