Well, it turns out she uses her winnings to fund the Frontier Corps, in hopes of allowing the organization to spread even further and allow it to help even more Frontier communities. It makes sense that Lifeline is putting herself on the line in hopes of helping those who can't help themsel Enemies are very quiet even when landing from huge jumps, or when sliding.
