That is not what you are doing. You are picking a winning lottery number and saying why did this number win and others not? That's faulty logic.

No, I’m looking at two “lottery tickets” with the exact same numbers and asking why one of them one the jackpot and the other one didn’t. The only conclusion: it’s not a lottery and what you have picked out as the winning lottery numbers are not that.
To be fair you'd have to compare people who had the same circumstances and desires, not simply both being rich.
You're really bad at logic but you're confident in it; that's not a good combination.
