I think that it is true many will think that way... but not everyone, I think.
The reason I can think of is that people are naturally positive thinking.
How can you live life if you are so negative? You are supposed to go to school and you think "Hack, I might be dead tomorrow, I think I will go and play better". How will anyone complete schooling?
You have some money for savings and you think, "Hack it will probably be stolen... better spend it all rather than save it... if I put in the bank, the bank will close down", so how can anybody have any savings?
This is why people lose tens of billions to the casino. People are naturally positive thinkers....
You can read about this in my book...
