I'm sorry but I find it extremely difficult to have any sympathy for anyone who ruins their life after being lucky enough win that kind of life changing money and not being able to control their self.
What you expect? They didn’t earn it. They just won it by chance. They have no respect for a dollar. After all you didn’t work for it. Unfortunately, boredom is the reason they kept speeding. They needed their next fixed.
@@jackieclan815 Well then I guess one can blame the Lottery for this man's death. You can say that the Lottery industry is irresponsible in how it allows regular people who are vulnerable to have to deal with a sudden win, so do we abolish the lottery? Many others have won and not found themselves in dire situations, so it all comes back to one's own responsibility for their actions.
Getting rich is half the battle. Staying rich is the other half. If you don't have a financial plan to handle all that money, then you will be another sad statistic.
Jakob Coulter Yes it is. That is why I don't play the lottery. I win the lottery every single week by not playing. If I can't get wealthy through my own labor and financial planning, then I will happily go to the grave poor. Quite frankly I would be terrified of winning the lottery. Most people dream about getting their hands on all that money and what they could buy with it. I am thinking about having a bulls eye on my back. I am thinking about every single long lost family member, friend and gold digging bitch coming out of the woodwork trying so schmooze money out of me. Let's say for the sake of an argument I did play the lottery and won. The first thing I would do after I got the money in my hot little hands is disappear like a mob snitch. I would move somewhere where I didn't know where I am.
he says he's gonna do right by saving for his family & helping charity, but the first thing they talk about is expensive rings & half a million dollar cars. STRIKE ONE. he had a financial advisor invest some of his money to bring him $85.000 a month for life then turned around and sold the stock STRIKE TWO. him and his wife are cocaine/crack heads STRIKE THREE. YOUR OUT. the sad part is he said he was going to leave his daughter a million in a trust fund, but when she turned 18 it was never to be found because he had spent it.
I don't know how you spend 12 out of 27 million in one year??? Some lottery players should just hand that winning ticket over to a more responsible adult
You win the lottery; 1) Don't tell anyone. 2) Get a Financial Advisor and Lawyer you can trust. 3) Don't go buying things you don't need like a Lear Jet.
Don't tell anyone ( if you're allowed to keep your secrecy of course), don't immediately quit your job and don't go on any big spending sprees and don't lend money to friends and relatives ever!

Firstly I would assemble a team lawyer, accountant, financial planner, fiduciary. Sure it's expensive but it would put you in good stead. They'd advise to diverse investment portfolio. Then I'd educate myself further on finance and investment so after 36 months I could manage money myself.

This is a series of extremely sad stories, but nevertheless, there are people who will take there chances with Lotto winnings. Not every Lotto winner has met a tragic end. I’m desperate at the moment. Loss of job, and girlfriend. If I win, then so be it.

wow. i know i read a statistic that most lottery winners lose their money within 10 years...but these examples are way more extreme than i imagined. i suppose if you never had money in your life, you'd have trouble managing it. same goes for retired professional athletes-- they are spending so much when they are playing and money is coming in, but once they retire at 30 (or 40 if they are lucky), they see it all runs dry quickly and they have no backup plan for the rest of their lives.
Am I the only one who suspects that the untimely deaths of many of the winners family were murdered in a way that wouldn't trace back to their killers?
Amanda Clayton died of a.drug overdose so no murder. Jack Whittaker says that his granddaughter was murdered but officially she died of an overdose, same with Whittaker's daughter. David Lee Edwards died in hospice, he wasn't murdered.
Being productive (working to create the things you want in your life) is a virtue. Receiving something (lottery, welfare, inheritance, charity, etc) that you haven't worked for is a vice.
+srercrcr You can ask God for anything, but the truth is the life rules are already in place. It had nothing to do with God. The guy believed he was going to get the money and that is why he got it, then lost it because of poor management. God already set the rules long ago. If you believe you shall receive, maybe not exactly the way you want but something close to it. Most of us unfortunately lack the faith and believe most of the time. Faith can move mountains.
They used god for the wrong reasons, god doesnt make people happy through money! If god blessed him he would be happy and poor. Thats what contentedness is!
First thing I would do if I win is, set it stuck on the bank for 2 years so I can calm down and have an actual plan and not rush into things. I would still continue to study for and get my 2nd degree in that time and once I get the money back I'l probably set 4/5th stuck again and have fun with interest gains for a long while and use the 1/5th to start a company and hopefully gain aswell :). But for that to happen I would have to play lottery and I believe thats not a worthy investment...
umm thats not true but okey.. there is nothing wrong with having money.. it is the LOVE of money is the root to all sorts of evil. Money it's self is not evil or belongs to satan.. *****
'Rest for spending', you mean NO for spending, that's how it begins, it's like drugs; Once you start, it will NOT end. If you do win, don't buy anything major other than necessities otherwise it'll become a habit and soon you'll have lost it all
One reason that you can't keep it secret in at least some states is that the state discloses the name of the winners. They want to be able to publicize the winners so that more tickets are sold. I'd talk to a lawyer first, send the money to a trust, change my name and move out of state.
These are the poster children of the casualties of "the lotto".. Don't do lotto.. not even once.. Unless you get a financial advisor to help make good decisions.
I would get a few very expensive cars, a fancy ass house, huge fucking TV, weed, cocaine, strippers, guns, huge ass speakers and strobe lights. What a party that would be...
***** whats wrong with an island and weed? what would you do with the cash? let me guess, you are one of these dopes who thinks that they are all of a sudden a great financial mind and will "invest it" wisely. people who play the lottery arent good with money. if they were good investors they wouldnt be playing the lottery lol...
I mean isn't is common sense to accept counseling and see a psychologist so you understand this money will eventually run out. If you not mindful of the future.
Stupid is as stupid does. You have to get smart as you get rich, and if you already have those kinds of smarts then odds are you are already rich. If you win the lottery, Talk to your lawyer and get some advice on how to safely manage it. But don't give the attorney any control over it. Get educated on money and how it's made and works. Research "Wealth management" Do NOT go buying a lot of expensive things. NEVER give up control of anything, no matter how large or how small, and all contracts require you to give up control over something. Even the "free" stuff is actually a requirement that you provide a bunch of personal information which results in you giving up control of that information.
And, this is exactly why free money welfare does nothing to improve the recipients' lives. Money without the discipline necessary to obtain it, means money spent without discipline.
A sudden major lottery win will just amplify who you are inside. I would like to think that if i won a major amount of money that I'd not only share with my family but also with strangers. Not necessarily giving away large amounts of cash but helping out people here and there who need it, for say an operation, debt, unemployed and homeless. I am not implying that I am a good person inside regarding my first sentence, but I am quite sure at this stage of my life I would be very sensible. But who knows? I battle over eating so maybe I will buy millions of rissoles and eat myself to death! I say that in humour but I am sure my point is clear. I do feel sad for these people. I know how I feel when I waste $50, let alone millions.
Amazing, David died divorced and broke all because of his inability to plan for the future, why would you buy a private jet, instead of renting one, you know a one time payment 🙄
Sad and pathetic. I'm already retired and in poor health. Will consult a tax attorney and financial planner so the funds will benefit my children/grandchildren. I want everything set up to where they won't get nutty with it either. Play various state lottery games every week.
+Harry Boyed Well when you have 12 mil you could easily buy 12 things for 1 mil a piece. That stuff can add up quick when people don't pay attention espeacially if they've never had it like that before.
Honestly, the first two deserved it since they didn't spend it wisely. I feel bad for the older guy since he was just robbed. He didn't spend it willy nilly unless I'm deaf and missed a part. But still. A bank stealing from its customer???? Like from his savings?? Really?? That sucks.
If I win I'll disappear I'll be back in the swamps somewhere in the south chillin on the baddest side by side with a 12 gauge pump a 12 pack of cold ones and a few good dogs and say fuck the world and fuck the fast lane I'd live simple but live secluded I'm old country boy you ain't going to catch me trying to live in no High Society neighborhood
so many tragic endings people go crazy with that kind of money tomorrow's big drawing I have placed a bet willing to share all the millions with many people but I will take just 2% of the jackpot would be enough for me
These stories make u think about how stupid people can get when there excited. If your poor u shouldn't be playing the lottery and wasting money you don't have. Go out and get a job don't just sit on a couch eating chips and getting government benefits. If i got all that money i would give some to my parents give some to charity buy a couple nice things and save the rest for a rainy day if you get my meaning. Don't just go out and blow all the money you got. Say you bought a bunch of expensive stuff and then a year later something goes wrong with the economy and u lose a lot of the stuff you had before. Also someone my steal your stuff and you won't have any money set aside for such a problem. Also in the bible it says that money is the root of all evil. So in this case you win a lot of money and you become self centered and don't rely on god as your strength you use money as your strength. And you can forget god and go to hell. And no one want's to go there. Also the lottery is just wrong cause your putting faith in money and worldly thing's And not in god. Anyway check out my youtube channel cracken cracken.
if you win the lottery... GET AWAY FROM YOUR GIRLFRIEND. GIVE YOUR TICKET TO A FATHER OR BROTHER YOU CAN TRUST. COUSIN MAYBE. PASTOR... SOMEONE ELSE... NO WOMEN
Maybe make all winners pass a drug test. At least mandatory money management support. I say pay off your bills, buy a house right away and put the rest in a bank.
+Nick Ross But unfortunately some people are just not that good with money management. Those who are horrible with money, probably will blow or waste the majority of that 1.5 billion on excessive spending, material BS, taking care of family member and making bad investments. God forbid (like this guy David in the video, who blew 12 mil in a year! WTF?!!) for the next winner to be an compulsive spender and a drug addict. Guaranteed, that money (or they'll be broke) will all be gone less in 20 years.
I read this going to sleep after a few glasses of red wine. The thing is? I agree with you, I wish life was not so hard that all we had was to numb out over some wine or something. At the same time?

Sad and pathetic. I'm already retired and in poor health. Will consult a tax attorney and financial planner so the funds will benefit my children/grandchildren. I want everything set up to where they won't get nutty with it either. Play various state lottery games every week.
12 million dollars in a year wtf
+Harry Boyed Well when you have 12 mil you could easily buy 12 things for 1 mil a piece. That stuff can add up quick when people don't pay attention espeacially if they've never had it like that before.
Having lot's of money is a responsibility the poor do not even know exists.
Annuity people. Never go broke more than a year. Guaranteed !!!
I wish il win.. wish me luck everyone
SAY NO TO DRUGS WE ALL KNOW THAT BUT SOME FK PEOPLE NEVER GET THAT ON TILL THEY ARE 6 FEET UNDER
DAMN IT NO DRUGSSSSSSSSSSSSS NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Honestly, the first two deserved it since they didn't spend it wisely. I feel bad for the older guy since he was just robbed. He didn't spend it willy nilly unless I'm deaf and missed a part. But still. A bank stealing from its customer???? Like from his savings?? Really?? That sucks.
I dont feel sorry for none of these fools
If I win I'll disappear I'll be back in the swamps somewhere in the south chillin on the baddest side by side with a 12 gauge pump a 12 pack of cold ones and a few good dogs and say fuck the world and fuck the fast lane I'd live simple but live secluded I'm old country boy you ain't going to catch me trying to live in no High Society neighborhood
so many tragic endings people go crazy with that kind of money tomorrow's big drawing I have placed a bet willing to share all the millions with many people but I will take just 2% of the jackpot would be enough for me
Soon to be wife? What in 1.1 millisecond after you won?
No. She was with him before they won. When he was broke, so don't go implying that she's a gold digger. However, all that lavish spending? Nope.
he should said nothing i would not say a word i move away slowly no fast cars i would not take all they money at once
no money mo problem
hold the fuck on, i dont know shit about america but, they literally took half of the prize in taxes?

fuck
Yep. Every time.
I have noticed many lottery or powerball winners end back up poor as well
They even take your money when you are dead. LOL
Well you can't take any of it with you when you die. Cold world. No snuggie Lol
Take the Annuity over $5 million
sad story
Sad
If I won the lotto I would pay for Trump's Wall
Nick Ross good luck winning 18 billion
Nick Ross 😁😁
Sad people
while im looking for 10,000$ funding for my start up
These stories make u think about how stupid people can get when there excited. If your poor u shouldn't be playing the lottery and wasting money you don't have. Go out and get a job don't just sit on a couch eating chips and getting government benefits. If i got all that money i would give some to my parents give some to charity buy a couple nice things and save the rest for a rainy day if you get my meaning. Don't just go out and blow all the money you got. Say you bought a bunch of expensive stuff and then a year later something goes wrong with the economy and u lose a lot of the stuff you had before. Also someone my steal your stuff and you won't have any money set aside for such a problem. Also in the bible it says that money is the root of all evil. So in this case you win a lot of money and you become self centered and don't rely on god as your strength you use money as your strength. And you can forget god and go to hell. And no one want's to go there. Also the lottery is just wrong cause your putting faith in money and worldly thing's And not in god. Anyway check out my youtube channel cracken cracken.
if you win the lottery... GET AWAY FROM YOUR GIRLFRIEND. GIVE YOUR TICKET TO A FATHER OR BROTHER YOU CAN TRUST. COUSIN MAYBE. PASTOR... SOMEONE ELSE... NO WOMEN
Maybe make all winners pass a drug test. At least mandatory money management support. I say pay off your bills, buy a house right away and put the rest in a bank.
With 1.5 billion you could spend $4000 a day for 1000 years and still have a lot left over.
+Nick Ross But unfortunately some people are just not that good with money management. Those who are horrible with money, probably will blow or waste the majority of that 1.5 billion on excessive spending, material BS, taking care of family member and making bad investments. God forbid (like this guy David in the video, who blew 12 mil in a year! WTF?!!) for the next winner to be an compulsive spender and a drug addict. Guaranteed, that money (or they'll be broke) will all be gone less in 20 years.
+MrJuly1990ish I could see blowing millions once you'd have a house paid off and a good piece of change in the bank.
Gambling is forbidden in Islam, because it’s a sin, just like alcohol.
I read this going to sleep after a few glasses of red wine. The thing is? I agree with you, I wish life was not so hard that all we had was to numb out over some wine or something. At the same time? Please don't judge people that may drink or gamble as they have holes in their heart they cannot fill. Pray for them, not judge :)
Could be a death they cannot recover from or some other sadness.
Two of many reasons why islam is flawed. Bacon being the number one reason why islam is wrong.
wow 😐
