Max has a rough life. Nothing really ever seems to work out for him. Socially, Professionally, Romantically, Max just never gets any luck. The only thing that he has going for him is his white hat. He cannot remember how he got it. But no matter what happens to Max, as long as he wears the hat he is able to be blissful about what happens to him. Instead of being negative and down, Max is happy. This allows Max's life to have a Ying/Yang aspect. The white hat offsets what happens to him on a daily basis. Max cherishes this white hat because he knows that if it disappeared one day then he would be nothing. Without the hat there would be nothing to motivate Max to keep pushing himself to make it through the day.
