14 votes, still no answers.

My logical conclusion would be: Many people hope they could recover from a huge failure but very few really do

I'm really hoping that some will answer; who doesn't love inspiring stories? Maybe some don't want to answer?

It's a really good question; I love Ask HN's like these. However, the conclusion you came to makes sense. That could be the case.

Or, putting everything on the line is rare. Where the biggest failure may be going all-in on a project too soon and having to get a job once you realize the mistake. Where once you have a certain size and level of success, losing it takes effort.
