Re: Does anyone benefit from statistics?
Statistics are extremely beneficial. I've taken a few statistics courses back when I was in college and I still rely on it today when my health anxiety flares up. There's always that "what if I was the one in a million" thought but are any of us really that lucky/unlucky?
I've never heard of a hypochondriac who died of the thing they were most afraid of, or even got diagnosed with it. That would make us pretty lousy hypos, ya know?
