People with SZ have a higher life expectancy, despite a generally lower socioeconomic status (which is a very important factor, though many want to sweep that under the rug). Risk-aversive behaviour develops.

Some of that risk-aversion is good, too much of it isn't, I'd say.

It's just taking risks. Addictive personality of sorts.
