Ha, either forgot or never new about Gladstone. Found this back story: link.

Though laziness isn't part of the scientific canon for luck, I can see it playing a role.

There's a story of someone walking to an Army barracks and saying he'll give $50 to the laziest soldier. Most of the recruits jumped at the chance and regaled him with stories about their laziness. When the last had finished he heard a slow drawl from a soldier who had never stirred from his top bunk bed, "Mr. you can walk right over here and put that 50 in my pocket."
