One thing that I have seen over many many years in business is the need to decide where and when to cut corners and take chances. I have definitely seen that after the fact you could feel "geez I should have done that how stupid" but before something actually happens things aren't so clear that resources and time and money should be spent preventing something from happening.
I have noted that if I did everything perfectly (and I am not talking specifically about money) I would never have made any money at all. (Exaggeration for effect.) There are always things that you can think of that seem like a good idea and you can't do all of them. I take the time and put in the money and effort to rotate and store offsite backups. However in all of these years that has never been needed. But God knows we all are aware of a ton of small businesses living on the edge who probably don't have good onsite backups, let alone offsite and they do have information that they need.
