then we agree: you have to buy a ticket, but randomness makes the lotto pick your ticket. Even the article said this

    The group’s initial break came when Brian Epstein, the 27-year-old manager of a Liverpool record store, happened to come hear them at a lunchtime session at a local club.
"happened to come hear them" -- that's the luck part. As I believe Louis Pasteur said "Chance favours the prepared mind." -- and continue to build COURAGE and CONFIDENCE and COMMITMENT to whatever we love so that we'll notice the random.
