Luck = All the things that that are too complex for us to understand bunched up in to one.

Luck is a narrative concept that is not useful in reasoning.

For example in the article:

> As many people pointed out, Jenner’s success would have been impossible if she hadn’t been born white, healthy, rich, and famous

She could not have been born as anything but those things. Those things are what she is and removing them would not simply make her "unlucky", it would make her in to another person. Luck as used here in the article is just a way to differentiate and classify people, it does not have causal power.

Yeah I am not a confrontation person but luck is a hard thing to talk about for me. To me it seems lazy to just say "oh you're successful because you got lucky". But that seems to be the consensus.

...I mean I suppose it all is right... It was luck that we exist goldilocks
