I must confess that when I saw the title of your post I encouraged myself to read you since I'm just making decisions to invest my money in some projects. However, as I was reading, I was surprised by what I was reading and I understood what you meant and I will see if I could see it clearly.
It's kind of like being realistic, predictive, thinking outside the box. Consider all the options, but at the same time all the bad things that could happen. It's like the SWOT analysis: weaknesses, opportunities, strengths and threats.
Thank you for showing us, for sharing the reverse thinking, it is good not to forget.
