      the thing about luck is it goes to people who don’t deserve it just as often as it goes to people who do.

      This is true if you take the set of people that luck can effect as given, but in practice it isn't. In practice some people, by taking risks, put themselves in a position where luck can strike them.

      Luck won't come find you on the couch. That's my motto.

          So far it hasn't, but I remain hopeful.

          Your lucky-moment to risk-taking ratio is probably about the same for everyone in average. "Deserving" luck means increasing your risk-taking baseline. Basic math - you DO get more luck in volume by "deserving" it.

          I've found plenty of coins in couches. However, they weren't my couches.

          I had the pleasure to be taught by William H. Armstrong, the author of "Sounder" in high school back in 1980. He had a sign over his desk that stuck with me. "It is hard to soar with eagles if you're surrounded by turkeys." It still holds up.

          Sure it will. Otherwise, it's not LUCK! Terms have definitions, preferably stable ones.
