I'm keeping these conversations separate because it's easier for me to do it that way.
"Lucky" implies survival by chance rather than preparation.
So what? There's always an element of chance in life (triple in an active combat zone), and I've never, ever seen or heard anyone use "lucky" as a derogatory comment. Envious, probably, but derogatory, never.
