You better make a list how to trap the Luck and keep that drunken fairy workin' for ya! LOL
Some people do all things right, all decision, and one detail doesn't sit in a place, everything collapses.
I think the best decision taking wise advice is don't have expectations or keep it very low.
That's when things go wrong, you will have a mental energy to continue pushing for better results.
Lol, yes you are right, I guess learning from experienced people should be a key factor everyone should consider before making any decision.
