Your barn burns down and your cattle all get hoof and mouth disease.  Total loss. 

It would seem there are no winners. But the price of your neighbors cattle may go up since there are fewer on the market. And the guy who rebuilds your barn "wins" doesn't he?

I think there must be ways to lose wealth without profiting others. But in my case, at least, it requires some thinking.
