A girl has an opportunity to land her dream job. There's a 10% chance she gets it. There is another company that wants her if she fails to get her dream job, though this job is not as good as the dream job.
A girl has an opportunity to land her dream guy. There's a 10% chance she gets him. There is 1 other guy that wants her if she fails to get her dream guy, though this guy is not as good as the dream guy.
Both opportunities have extremely high risk of failure so:
The girl will pursue the dream job.
But the girl will not pursue her dream guy.
Why?
