RE: The lies we tell ourselves - the gambler's fallacy
Nice topic. Most people have no clue they are victimis of themselves by daily making bad decisions based on the false premises that some special force is keeping things together. To be aware of the independence of events can be difficult when you try to rationalize and justify everything. Some people also believe everything is a coincidence and others claim the complete opposite.
A functional mind who really questions reality and a basic understanding of probabilities can avoid and/or solve many problems.
