Do you believe in the ugly side of multi million wins.

[bhadz]

What's your opinion and experience on this?

I have no experience since I haven't won millions but ever since I've heard stories in our country with these lottery winners, many of them have a good rags to riches stories through the lottery. But, as bad as it can be, many of them came back to their former lives because they have no financial knowledge on how to keep the money they have won. They thought that the prize money they've won would last a lifetime but, they didn't noticed that big spending that they did, and even the smallest one has drained their money unnoticeably. There was an interview from KMJS(local tv show) of a former lottery winner and told the story on air. And this made me remember the curious case of several lottery jackpot winners in our PCSO(government lottery) in the current administration.

I am not a lottery fan but if i am given a game to play by a stranger or anyone at all i will try the game because i do not know what made the person to give me a code to try luck but here is what i will do in such situation; i will make sure to play with what i can really afford to let go if it does not work as planned, after all nothing is guarantee. i know sometimes when we win a huge amount of money the emotion will always try to drive us but regardless i won't lose everything back.

What you said is the best for me too. There is no harm in trying when giving such game to play because it might just be an opportunity for that person to be blessed through luck, no body can predict if that would be the best time to win a reasonable amount with stress or pressure, since that person is not the one forecasting the game by him or her self
It also important to bet with an amount that won't affect ones pocket in any way even if the game did not win as expected, there won't be pressure.

I think it depends on how prepared a person is for such a sudden change in their lives, especially when it is about a financial change. For example, if you already have a lot of things planned that only need funding, and you are waiting for an opportunity to earn some money so that you can start doing those things one by one, and then you manage to win a huge amount from lottery or a jackpot in gambling, then of course, the first things you are going to do with the money is complete the incomplete tasks that were pending just because of a lack of finances, and then think about other stuff.

However, someone who doesn't have any plans, has no idea how to manage their finances, and are just always earning and spending their money on stuff that aren't that important, if such a person manages to win a huge amount, they will surely not be able to put it to good use because they would be lost of thoughts and ideas, and they won't even be able to keep their funds safe and then use it properly.

So I think it's all about being mentally prepared, and also having at least some knowledge about financial management which will help you with everything.

The only way to be safe from a huge loss after that much winning is to go offline directly or take the whole fund and go underground for some time. The thing is, the sudden huge amount creates a lot of pressure on you, facing the greed and the relatives that come after hearing of your win is the worst part. However, if I can get it, I would use it as soon as possible, paying off the debt, making my dreams come true, making some investments for the future, and spending on my own. The rest of the money will go towards buying a car. Of course, the sudden huge amount will change my behavior, but I will manage it the way I manage how to spend it safely.

I’ve always thought that people who win millions in the lottery and then squander it are all fools. And that’s actually true, but it’s not that strange because the likelihood that people who are really good at managing money would try their luck at the lottery is quite low. Generally, it’s people who have nothing to do with money management and just want to test their luck in the moment who play the lottery.

So this is a cause and effect relationship. Still, I don’t understand why, after coming into millions, a person wouldn’t even stop for a second to think about what to do with their money.

In this life, you can't have everything; our subconscious mind somehow warns us that after extreme luck, something bad is going to happen along the way.

While not really a fact to consider, there are stories of people who, after winning huge in a lottery, become miserable or lose their fortune eventually, some of them from mishandling their fortune or from events that they have no control over.

Do you think you can handle your fortune if you ever win the lottery? Do you have a fear of Impending Doom and Anticipatory Anxiety after winning millions of dollars in a lottery?[glow]

Wealthy people who strike it lucky gambling remain wealthy afterward, nothing about them changes. That is because they are accustomed to the jackpot amounts they win, they might well have a thousand times that amount in their bank accounts. People whose lives fall apart after winning a jackpot usually come from weak financial backgrounds, they are unaccustomed to having big money.

[KiaKia]

We really can't have it all just like you said but we will have ourselves to blame if we don't try, that's why we need to still do something, actions brings results, either failure or wins, but you can't tell until you try.

Even if you try and you fail, I don't advice putting an end to everything, learn from the mistake and you will never be the same person that you used to be,  move on and try again.

When it comes to gambling you should know that it's not a safe haven for chasing or even looking up to profits, it's all excitement, always gamble with what you can afford to lose.

I also think in addition that those who go broke after winning a jackpot didn't even have a plan in place on how to reinvest the money, otherwise it would be easy to control the habitual expenses and ego boost that causes wrong decisions of which comes after winning the jackpot.
When there is a path and such money comes, it becomes easier to ignore and refuse all those that came with the intention of getting their own share and that's the best way to avoid them and unnecessary expenses.

So far the game is played with what can be spared,I'm not against that. It's anyone's choice to take risk with what they can afford losing, I'll only be against playing it with money that's important. I've seen a situation whereby an elderly man asked someone to pay him so he'll give out sure lotto codes, I don't know if the person later paid but it would be stupid to do so.

Nothing is guaranteed in such kind of games and paying for something that involves luck is a very foolish act, I think if it were sure as the elderly man claimed he would've kept it to himself. I won't be suprised if someone end up paying him for the codes cause some people can be so desperate for quick money, they don't mind whether winning is certain or not.

That is the reality, those who fail after hitting the jackpot actually lack the capacity to handle such a big money. It is not about the money itself, but rather about how prepared a person is for a certain level of wealth. One of my bros once won over $1,000 from free spins, that moment of fun turned into a tragedy for him & now he is being hounded by loan sharks after taking out multiple loans.

Do you think you can handle your fortune if you ever win the lottery?

Yes, i can handle the fortune. i believe in this century any gambler that won a jackpot and squandered everything is totally a fool, despite many investment opportunities that are available, especially if you accumulate BTC now.
Having said that, i believe the people who have already portrayed their future business plan and investment with enough discipline to execute it always do well with their fortune.

Do you have a fear of Impending Doom and Anticipatory Anxiety after winning millions of dollars in a lottery?

Any that have this fear should seek for professional wealth management firm for help. Most jackpot winner are doing well now

Some examples of this;

Winning the lottery might seem like a dream come true, but mountains of unearned money are irresistible to greedy and resentful friends and relatives, con artists and charity cases, who scurry out of the woodwork to grab as much of it as they can. In other cases, it's the lottery winners themselves who can't get out of their own way — reckless spending, giving, partying and gambling leave some worse off than they started.

24 Lottery Winners Who Lost Millions

Lottery winners who lost it all: how jackpot dreams turned into nightmares

What's your opinion and experience on this?

The problem with sudden wealth is that money does not change who you are it just amplifies what is already there. If you are a reckless person with money, you will be more reckless. If you are generous, you might give too much. If you are surrounded by greedy people, they will come running. The stories you hear about lottery winners losing it all are not just bad luck. It can be a result of poor planning, lack of financial knowledge and pressure from people who suddenly want a piece of it. But that does not mean everyone who wins big will end up miserable. Some people handle it well by staying grounded, getting professional advice and keeping their circle tight. It is all about mindset and discipline.

[Perfectbaby]

People are actually different in life and if you don't have self control over what you are doing then automatically that controls your entire Life. First as a gambler or human you are setting a principle for oneself should be an ultimate goal because through your principles then comes cultivation and if you follows the directions then you must always have a self control over things that you are doing.
I still do not want to think twice how someone manages to win and all of the sudden they misplaced everything due to lack of control, of course, they don't have budget, target and aim of gambling otherwise immediately they have such winning the next should be what plans do they have with that money as they are gambling.

Do you think you can handle your fortune if you ever win the lottery? Do you have a fear of Impending Doom and Anticipatory Anxiety after winning millions of dollars in a lottery?

Well, who knows? One thing is sure, I won't be bragging about winning the lottery.  I do not have fear about the impending doom and anticipatory anxiety if I ever win millions of dollars.

Most people who have gotten worse after winning a huge amount of money are probably people who can't control themselves from gambling, and later lose the winnings.  Others have poor financial management, splurge on buying expensive things, and are unable to control the outflow of money until they realize all their winnings are gone.

What's your opinion and experience on this?

Money attracts people who have ill-intentions regardless of where it came from.  This is also one of the reasons why bragging about Fortune Holdings is greatly discouraged.  If one earned or stumble upon some luck and get huge amount of fortune, they should keep quiet about it not to alarm people who have bad intentions.

When you’re hit with a situation you don’t have control over and you spend all your wins in them, I don’t think that should be a problem of regret of not having money again. The main purpose of looking for money is to spend them and help us live a comfortable life. So if I win big in gambling, I’m expected to live a better lifestyle henceforth but some circumstance will not warrant that and as long as you didn’t misuse the money and used it for a good course, then you shouldn’t be bothered that the money is exhausted.

Do you think you can handle your fortune if you ever win the lottery? Do you have a fear of Impending Doom and Anticipatory Anxiety after winning millions of dollars in a lottery?

People term cases of losses like this after big win in lottery to a belief that gambling was never good, and as long as you make that money through gambling, you won’t benefit from it and will lose it all no matter how you try to manage them. So I think if one has such anticipatory anxiety, they’ll not bother on how to manage the money and will just face any loss like that as to what they expected. For me I know I can handle it, unless a situation warrants that all the money be used up without begging to invest them, but I trust myself that I should be able to handle such big wins to my own advantage in the long term.

I don't think this is the only superstitious believe about gambling, there is one people talk about most often, they will say when you win a huge money from gambling, that money don't last so it better you invest into something you can see with your physical, it will make more sense according to them but I know a peesn that have nothing but he had smashed gambling many times and today he had nothing doing than gambling everyday and he makes he money.

Gambling is about risk and finances, you can have good gambling skills and have bad habit in spending and can be vice versa, some gamblers can have both skills and are very skilled in gambling, these one tends to be the most smartest gamblers. It's about individual and experience with skilled than people with just ordinary skills without doesn't understand how to manage their finance.

The problem is that many people go about there daily life without planning,I'm not a lottery fan, but trust me if I'm opportune to win ,I won't play with it, since we all know nothing is guarantee,and being extremely lucky as you have said is not as easy as people think,so if one is lucky enough to win a substantial amount it's best to put good use of it ,I have seen many who won millions in betting and within a short time they begin to suffer maybe due to carelessness or unplanned future, or inability to control good money ,I will advise anyone that if such opportunity comes it's good to put good use of it.

Sometimes when the unexpected happened to unprepared people they tend to take actions that can harm they overall wellbeing in the long run, most lottery winners never planed for it and it just happened and instead of taking the time reflect and plan the unexpected inflow they get carried away with fun which make them to spend too much in a shirt period of time.


Most of the irresponsible gamblers we have, I mean the addicted one's are all those that have won some good amounts in the past and theur present condition is as a result of their lack of decipline to manage what came into they hand in previous winnings.

[gracreavix]

I think your direction is not as it should be. Sudden wealth does just one thing. It amplifiers what is already there.  Meaning the person has such habits already and the lottery win only revealed it. Mismanagement is the ugly side of management. Management is a skill on it's own. It's something that is learnt. Someone who does not that it will likely fall under mismanagement. So the ugly side is never the win, rather it is how the win is managed to that can tell whether it is ugly or not.

Hahaha, Well I really don't buy the idea that there is any kind of doom which roams around lottery winners...Anyone who choose to be reckless about their gambling huge wins did so because of greed and poor financial decisions. They are the ones to blame not actually any kind of imaginary force.. Sudden wealth could very well bring up bad hidden habits when care is not taken, and so If I was to win a big amount today, my concern wouldn't even be on any impeding doom( Coz I know there is no such thing as that), my concern would rather be on how I can effectively use the win to positively add to my life... Instead of making that my win a public announcement, I would rather secretly use the win to lump sum into Bitcoin or participate in any other long term investments..
