I definitely believe this and it does not have to be to do with wealth and privilege. I think it's the planets, lucky stars but I really do think some people have more than their fair share of bad luck and others escape many of life's problems. I have a friend who lost her parents when she was 21, got married at 22 and was widowed at 30, and 10 years ago one of her children got breast cancer. I have had nothing but financial setbacks for several years and it started again in January where things went wrong in the house. which cost me a fortune and I thought after a cataract op at the beginning of the month at least that would go right. It hasn't and I have been left with a haze on the cornea which needs an urgent test. I have to have a scan at the back of my eye next month. Now everyone I know has had successful cataract ops even people I know in their 80's! so I
firmly believe s0me people are unlucky. I once worked with someone who was very lucky. He came out of the army and was supposed to be waiting for a job in DSS but had a look round the corner at the local ICI while he was waiting got taken on there and became a senior manager. He was made redundant from there and straight away landed a job at DSS. We had a boss who was lucky like him with parents who helped him get on the property ladder and he also climbed up the career ladder. He has never been ill or had any problems where I and my friend have had nothing but problems! I am the only person I know who has had complications with a cataract op. It is very hard at times not to feel bitter at the unfair division of luck.
