Winning the lottery, unexpected inheritances, game show win, lots of things

    None of that is realistic though.

    In the same vein I could in theory find 1 trillion dollars on the sidewalk tomorrow, but is there any point in ever considering that an actual possibility?

    It's realistic, just not probable. I know 3 different people who won over a million dollar scratcher and know of 4 others through one degree separation.

    All but one of those was a problem gambler. But my point is, if you waste enough money it becomes realistic, if not probable.
