Lucky Bastard

From the publisher: Some people are just lucky. There’s no denying that there are those individuals who, for whatever reason, seem to lead a charmed life. Whether they were born under a good omen, are blessed by god, or are just at the far end of the probability curve, some folks just deserve the nickname “Lucky Bastard.” Jealousy and envy are common reactions to people so seemingly blessed by fortune, as are some amount of confusion and disbelief. A few people manage to refine their luck into an actual method of survival, counting on chance and karma to save the day when skill and strength fail. The one in a hundred shot is no stranger to the Lucky Bastard, and many become daring risk-takers because of their luck. Others are quiet in their good fortune, unwilling to “press their luck” more than they have to. After all, if luck is a commodity that some people just have more of than others, then it’s possible for your luck to run out.
