Here I have been wasting my time paying off bills and credit cards and I should have been buying lotto tickets. DOH!!
The sister of a former student of mine won $15 million in one of the California drawings about ten years ago. She was a normal, married, late twenty-something with no children.
According to her brother, after winning she left her husband, found a weight-lifter who used to beat her, got hooked on cocaine, was involved in a deadly car accident while high, and ended up in rehab and prison.
Some people can’t handle it.
