I've done exactly that on a number of occasions.

There comes a time when it's better to walk away than dismally wait around hoping things will improve
The old "well, it worked for me" anecdote.

I’ve never done that, and yet, here I am, semi-retired, still living in my 4 bed detached house in a nice area, with 2 nice cars on the driveway, and have 3 holidays abroad a year - perhaps if you hadn’t done that, you’d be better off?

I’ve been in a couple of serious car crashes, and survived with only minor injuries - however, I don’t drive around thinking "well, it doesn’t matter if I crash, I survived before...".

"It’s probably going to be OK" is not an optimal approach for a country’s economy...
