I am lucky I finally found my wife 24 years ago.
I have had great luck with health.
I made some luck with hard work and I have a good job and zero debts.
When it comes to random luck like winning a door prize at meetings or events I have no luck at all. My wife and I went to a club meeting that had door prizes after the meeting had 14 people at a dinner meeting and 12 prizes. The two non winners were my wife an myself. I have been to 15 Porsche Parades. At every meal they have door prizes. So far I have won a child's size t-shirt and I don't have kids.

You're lucky that you have an excellent memory - else you'd not remember all of those jokes you tell.
