Stretch the timescale long enough and everything will collapse.

In the case of financial institutions, this timescale is often within a human lifespan.

So you might be wrong today, might be wrong tomorrow, but if you bet on failure, you will eventually be right.

Your bet can remain wrong longer than you can remain solvent.

In an apocalypse type scenario all bets are off anyway so you might as well ignore it.
