One impact of heavy tails is that sample averages can be poor estimators of
the underlying mean of the distribution.

The theorem is related to {doc}`the law of large numbers <lln_clt_intro>`.

It tells us that, in some settings, the law of large numbers sometimes holds even when the
sequence of random variables is [not IID](iid_violation).
