"Fortunate favors the bold." is a common misconception. What you're actually seeing there is survivorship bias. Most adventurers don't survive the first goblin, but nobody tells stories about them.

It isnt suggesting that the bold are most likely to survive. It is saying that the big rewards go with the people who take big risks, not that the risk is actually worth taking.
