The Probability of Wealth

The Probability of Wealth

"Everyone in the market chases information. James Smith already knows the odds." James Smith is seventeen, broke, and invisible — a scholarship kid from Lyon who spends his lunch breaks reading annual reports no one asked him to read. He has no connections, no capital, and no name worth mentioning in the halls of French finance. But he has one thing nobody can see: a plan that stretches beyond his own lifetime. He doesn't want to be rich. He wants to build something permanent — a legacy so solid that his name will carry weight long after he's gone, and his children's children will never know what it means to start from nothing. Then a lab accident changes everything. A routine errand at a research facility. An equipment failure. A flash of white. When James wakes up in a hospital bed two days later, he notices something no one else can: a silent, translucent panel at the edge of his vision. It doesn't speak. It doesn't explain. When he focuses on any investment, it shows a single number — a probability score. Nothing more. He doesn't know what it is. He doesn't know why it works. He only knows it's his — and he will take that secret to his grave. What follows is not a story of a boy who got lucky. It is the story of a man who took one edge and built an empire from it — one calculated position at a time. From the trading floors of Euronext Paris to the boardrooms of global conglomerates, James moves in silence, leaving behind only results that no one can explain and a reputation that makes even the oldest money in Europe uncomfortable. He will become the greatest investor France has ever produced. And nobody — not his closest friend, not the woman who sees him most clearly, not the institutions that fear him — will ever know why. The probability is always in his favour. The reason is always his secret.

A '70s Flash Marriage: Raising Cubs, Making Millions

A '70s Flash Marriage: Raising Cubs, Making Millions

Fu Xiaoxiao transmigrates into a book and immediately faces the crisis of being sent to the countryside. As the unloved middle child, her younger sister is the one meant to go — but her mother transfers her job to the sister instead. A disaster of a start. To avoid being sent away, she has to marry within seven days. She meets a few ordinary men and decides she'd rather go to the countryside. Then she runs into a neighbor who's also looking for a spouse — and his conditions are surprisingly good. A dowry of three hundred? Bicycles and a radio? Just take care of the kids, and separate rooms are fine? The others may pass, but she won't. Every day is a battle of wits with the two kids. Life is eventful, she gets a salary every month, and the boss is never home. Absolutely perfect. Except... wasn't this big shot supposed to be infertile? Then why does he keep strutting around naked in front of her? She has professional ethics. She won't be seduced by a good body. Hmph. Men only slow down her sword swing. Lu Feng grits his teeth at Fu Xiaoxiao, who remains completely unmoved by his countless attempts to seduce her, and traps her in his arms. "Boss, let's talk this through. I know forty a month is a bit much — how about... five less?" Trapped in his embrace, Fu Xiaoxiao thinks he's unhappy with her high salary and starts bargaining. "I'm giving myself to you for free." Lu Feng grinds out through clenched teeth. This woman has no heart. "...Can I say no?" Fu Xiaoxiao swallows, staring at the washboard abs so close. "Such a good deal — are you sure you don't want it?" Lu Feng squints, tempting her. "Fine." A fool turns down a bargain.

2 dice probability
For two dice, there were several possibilities: 1. ** Single number probability **: - Each die had six sides, and the numbers were 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6. When a die is rolled, the probability of each number appearing is 1/6. When two dice were thrown, for example, the probability of both dice rolling a 1 was 1/6. Therefore, the probability of both dice rolling a 1 (the combination of 1 and 1) was (1/6)×(1/6)=1/36. Similarly, any particular combination of numbers (such as 3 and 5) has a probability of 1/36. 2. ** Point sum probability **: - The sum of the points was 2 (1 + 1), and there was only one possibility. The probability was (1/6)×(1/6)=1/36. - The sum of the points is 3 (1+2 or 2 + 1). There are two possibilities, and the probability is 2/36. - The sum of the points was 4 (1+3, 2+2, 3+1). There were 3 possibilities, and the probability was 3/36. - The sum of the points is 5 (1+4, 2+3, 3+2, 4+1). There are 4 possibilities, and the probability is 4/36. 3. ** Dice size probability (1 - 6 is small, 7 - 12 is big)**: - There were a total of 6x6 = 36 combinations of the two dice. Among them, there were 15 situations where the sum of points was 1 - 6 (small), and 21 situations where the sum of points was 7 - 12 (large). However, since it was impossible for two dice to have a point, the probability of a small point appearing was 5/11 (about 45.45%), and the probability of a big point appearing was 6/11 (about 54.55%). 4. ** The probability that the sum of the two dice numbers is odd (assuming the first die numbers are 1, 2, 3, 3, 5, 6, and the second die numbers are 1, 2, 4, 4, 5, 6)**: - For the first die, the probability of an odd number appearing was 4/6 = 2/3, and the probability of an even number appearing was 1/3. For the second die, the probability of an odd number appearing was 2/6 = 1/3, and the probability of an even number appearing was 2/3. To get the odd sum, there are two situations: if the first die is odd and the second die is even, the probability is 2/3×2/3 = 4/9; if the first die is even and the second die is odd, the probability is 1/3×1/3 = 1/9. Therefore, the total probability was 4/9+1/9 = 5/9. Hurry up and click on the link below to return to the super classic "Lord of the Mysteries"!

Increases the probability of 10 to 11
The probability of a normal non-safe buff was between 10% and 30%, depending on the equipment's quality, level, enchantment, and strengthening level. The probability of a safe buff was between 3% and 10%, but there was no separate probability of a 10 to 11 buff.
