Tales from past winners as the Mega Millions jackpot hits $1 billion

Many have paid off debts, bought homes, invested their money and adjusted to life as multimillionaires. Others say the joy and thrill that came from sudden wealth soon turned to bad choices and sadness — and ruined their lives.

If you didn't work for it and earn it, then it holds exponentially less value.

Money can buy a boat. Have you ever seen someone unhappy on a boat?

I could have some fun with more money but it is because I already have my priorities in order. I don’t need money to “fix” my life

When idiots who’ve never had much wealth suddenly have immense wealth dropped on them, they have no idea how to manage it.

Not surprising.

Also a reason redistribution of wealth schemes don’t work.

I get what you saying though OP. Money brings out the worst in people is a true saying. I know the daggers came out when we sold the family business. You would have to skip town and live on a big spread in bfe or a gated compound

Money may not make someone happy but it gives them opportunities that may not have previously had.


while not impossible, I feel it would be very difficult to blow through this weeks jackpot.

If you struggle that much with financial education, take the annuity so you can get money each year rather than all up front.
