Do you want to know which state knows how to play it safe? BetMGM wanted to find out as well so they went out to find the daring and cautious sides of Americans in different states.

They did this by surveying over 2,200 people across the U.S. to find out where residents are the most and least likely to take a chance in their lives. The results showed us which states are leaving things up to chance the most.

One of the states under the spotlight was our very own New York. According to BetMGM's findings, residents of the Empire State aren't likely to leave their job without having another one lined up. In fact, 44% of New Yorkers said they would never do it. Talk about holding onto that safety net tight!
