The same could be said of
* Buying a lottery ticket
* Moving to a new city and you hope you can find a decent job
* Having to choose a different brand of milk at the store because they're out of your regular one
* Starting on a new TV series and you hope it's not shit
* Organizing a party and you hope nothing goes wrong
But it's not at all the same "threat" feeling.
