As a part time professional photographer since 2010, I have yet to have a single card failure. I typically use my cards for several years, until the transfer speed is getting so behind par it seems foolish to keep using them.
Other than common sense stuff, I have one rule for them: Never ever delete a photo from the card in camera. In fact, I never "delete", only "format". Other working photographers I've talked to also practice this.
