Question: Suppose a friend named Megan indicates that she has had a string of "bad luck." Within the past month, she has had to have the alternator replaced on her car, start taking thyroid medication because she was diagnosed as being hypothyroid, and buy a new television because the picture tube went bad on her old television. Megan concludes that she should not have any more problems for a while. Is she assuming the "gambler's fallacy?" Explain.
