Two book lists

There are two book lists in this article. Is there any reason why they can't be combined into one, preferably the second, later one since that better follows the style guidelines. -- Dougher (talk) 17:01, 10 April 2015 (UTC)

Risk versus Luck - and Absurdity

The example of the absurd definition of risk if used in the wrong context of luck should be deleted. Another option would be to change the example to indicate that if a risk was taken (e.g., advertising, with their expense, but unknown outcome)..., but that would make the example seem not so absurd. Save your "luck" for the article on Las Vegas casinos. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 144.183.224.2 (talk) 23:16, 7 July 2015 (UTC)

Risk versus uncertainty

uncertainty, which the results of the decision you made was only random and also the potentials and possibilities of those results. The uncertainty plays a big part in your success.

Risk, People usually underestimate the effect of luck involved in success, mainly because they might think their ego are larger than risk, and they can definitely make good money by their two bare hands.

ISO reference

ISO 31000 of Nov. 15, 2009 adopted the vocabulary of the Jan. 1, 2009 version of ISO Guide 73, not the 2002 version. The ISO 73:2002 definition of risk was different; i.e., "The combination of the probability of an event and its consequence". Please be more careful in matching and updating references, quotes and their dates. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 144.183.224.2 (talk) 21:03, 20 October 2015 (UTC)
