Life on Earth does not seem to be on the same right as Adam and Eve werein paradise. Without doubt, it is assimilated to a vulgar struggle for survivalnot only for humans, including animals. It is rather a field to which all thespecies have been invited to develop know-how and benefit from theirperenniality. Sometimes it seems as if life for animals seems better than itis for man. Because of the height of his consciousness, the human being ismore than ever forced to work. Hard work to support himself and hiscommunity. So, are the actual efforts related to luck? Or is Success acombination of effort and opportunity? to do so, to agree on sufficientlyconvincing principles, let us imagine that we will have to progress for afinal selection, a final step. It must be known that the courage and griefaccumulated often do not tend to equal the expected values. The finalsituation is not rather in volteface but can be argued to be in favor of theconsent of an individual is the worst case, the opposite.How to explain such a phenomenon in everyday life? Without doubt, manyof you, will seek the role of luck. In this condition, does luck assume itsshare of responsibility in the evolution of each event? Is it unfair to somethat it is unfair to others? a first thing that we can legitimately envision andthat would know a common point between the different readers: it is that offirst conceiving the essence of luck. It is defined as a hazard, a chance, alikelihood. But quantifiable and measured by a probability, the number ofchances that an event can take place. Let's go back to the experience of thefinal qualification to see the coherence. Imagine that you are part of thesefinalists. You have to choose between four letters 'A', 'B', 'C' and 'D'. As thephrase exchanging begins with the letter 'C', we will pretend to say that 'C'is the good option among the others. In other words, each individual of thefinalists will each have a chance in 100 to celebrate their moment of glory.In spite of your efforts and the commitment you have made to reach thelevel of yourself, the fact is that the expected result will hardly be a directresult of your commitments. So to speak, luck is not observable butestimableIt is identical for each individual and therefore neutral. Rather, it is our freewill that determines the root cause of our choices, the consequences of our
work, and the decisions we continually make in our lives. However, howare we to explain the absurd notion that is related to a favorable situationthat could benefit a natural or legal person or a state. This is clearly awavelength ahead for the possessor individual than the one who is deprivedof it. Is luck a privilege in this case? otherwise, does the privilege itselfstand a chance? As an example, we realize that the comparative advantagesbetween countries are very complementary economically. It should be saidthat it is rather beneficial for all, that is, a positive multilateral externality.
