Gotta take all of this with a grain of salt, especially since this whole article is explicitly based on people who did end up in prison, whose plans did all fail, regardless of their hubris. > Yet one of the hallmarks of a criminal thinking style is something called super-optimism. On a scale designed to measure this tendency, high scorers act as if they’re wearing a “bullet-proof” vest, in the sense that there’s no way their plans can fail. Super-optimism doesn't seem like something to emulate.
