Let’s say, you are a super duper powerful milti-dulti-billionaire. If you have an opportunity to build a massive chemical plant that will likely make you 40 billion dollars in 5 years, but you also know that if you choose to build it, it will somehow make it very probable that you will lose your limb, and that your wife will get cancer and die, you will most likely spend a minute thinking about your priorities before making up your mind.
