There was this movie I saw about a champion female skier who told her boyfriend (played by Beau Bridges) ”I think a person only has so much luck in their life”. Later in the film, she became paralyzed from a skiing accident and could never compete in her passion again.
Her words have haunted me.
Do you think life is like that? You only have so much luck?
It was based on a true story.
(Man, why do reply so much to my q's? I have got to get a life.)
Everyone decides for themselves! For example: if one person found a dime on the street, they might consider that “lucky”. Another person might not even bother to pick it up.
The concept of “luck” is highly subjective.

Mabey. I think the moral of the story is to take opportunity by the horns, because you will never get a second chance.
Don’t be too scared by it.

You’re not tht person right? I believe in myself. Not because something bad happens and i think i have only so much luck in life. After all, it’s just a movie. Things aren’t real. The character isn’t real, the identity isn’t real. Don’t worry so much.

No. Sometimes things happen for a better reason.Anyway, you are not the heroine of that movie.Everybody has his own set of ‘karma’s’ lined up which can be good/bad effect called luck.

No. I don’t believe that luck is a fundamental force of this universe. Coincidence, chance and serendipity. Not some underlying cosmic force, there’s no evidence for that.

I believe people make their own luck in life. Take chances, take risks, make decisions. If you never did anything you would never be able to say that was good or bad luck.
In gambling I suppose – If you’re not in you can’t win.
This female skier maybe took a chance.

It depends on what you think of as “luck”…If you mean luck as “when something good happens in your life”, I think that, yes, a person only has so much luck.
But that is simply because I do not believe in free will. If there is no free will, and everything is fated to unravel in a certain way, then there is undoubtedly “only so much luck” for a person to have.

there is no such a thing as luck, you make your own luck, there is chance but not luck
