ev has nothing to do with risk of ruin

Greg, pretty sure you know this and just mis-spoke but this quote is very wrong and commonly misunderstood to be correct so thought I would nittily point it out.

[/ QUOTE ]

You are wrong. It is possible to make 0EV bets and never go busto. It is possible to only make -EV bets and never go busto, [and be Robusto through luck as well].
It is possible to make ONLY +EV bets and go Busto!

[/ QUOTE ]
And that proves that EV has nothing to do with risk of ruin how?
