Dear UsingEnglish teachers and folks,

Apart from "a matter of luck", are there any alternative ways to say that expression? I need to know more, particularly the most common words or catch phrases you native English speakers get used to.

Thank you.

If you are talking about bad luck, you can say "that's the way the cookie crumbles."
