Gambling:
It is entirely possible to raise the odds of winning a jackpot with effective strategy. Yet doing so spoils the fun of 'medium-sized wins more often'. So I do not bother.
National security:
The perception one does not give a shit about other countries influences is a small concern when weighed against a general absence of argument and a lifetime without paranoia.
Opposite sex and libido:
Not getting a woman 99% of the times you try, just means you spend more time wanting something than actually having it, this is not a good strategy for a comfortable life. The general state of opposite-sex members is a state of absolute disregard for sense and reason, so staying with a female for any amount of time is effectively stagnating yourself.
Fear of outcomes:
You are not classed as Human if you do not fear things like death, but the amount of time it takes to die is minuscule compared to the amount of time you writhe about it. So there is no point stressing.
There are other things, but screw you, I do not care if I look stupid
