YOUR FRIENDS WOULD TRY TO OR EXPLOIT YOU Another common occurrence among past lottery
winners is that their friends and even family try to exploit them.
If you win the lottery, your friends would expect you to take care of the tab at every
outing or dinner.
This is expected, but what about when they hope you to solve all their financial problems
or send their children to medical school.
A lottery winner reported how his friend was complaining to him about her financial and
tax problems, and when he checked her taxes, he found out she was good, and when he mailed
her the report of her taxes, their relationship ended.
Lottery winners tend to lose some friends after winning the
lottery because of this.
So if you value your friends, you might want to stop buying lottery tickets!
12.
SEGREGATION FROM THE TRULY WEALTHY Call it jealousy or class, people who got
wealthy without winning the lottery would probably look down on you.
This is because they feel you didn't earn money.
You may even be called a poser, and if you move to a wealthy neighborhood because you
have the money now, your new neighbors would probably not come for your parties.
One lottery winner reported that, after winning the lottery, he moved to a wealthy neighborhood
and tried throwing a big Halloween party, he invited all the neighbors, but none of
them showed up.
11.
MOST LOTTO WINNERS STILL PLAY THE LOTTERY The United States has the most lottery winners,
and of course, these past winners still play the lottery.
As the old saying goes, don't quit while you are ahead, and most lottery winners take this
saying personally.
It is no surprise you have a single person winning the lottery twice.
The famous Richard Lustig won the lottery a record seven times between 1993 and 2010.
You can imagine how many tickets he bought to achieve that feat, even after winning the
first and second time.
Stefan Mandel and Joan Ginther are other famous multiple lottery winners.
A man from South Carolina won the lottery twice in two weeks!
10.
THE MONEY LEAVES AS EASILY AS IT COMES Winning the lottery, is in most parts, a stroke
of luck.
You only need to buy the winning ticket to win the lottery,
which usually costs around 2 dollars or less.
Think about it, 2 dollars to win over millions of dollars without lifting a finger.
If that isn't easy money, then nothing else is.
But this money, for some reason, leaves almost as fast as it comes it comes.
Whether they won a million dollars or fifty, most lottery winners report that the money
goes as quickly as it comes.
According to the New York Daily News, 70 percent of lottery winners end up broke within seven
years.
That is definitely not a lot of time for a multi-million dollar jackpot to be over if
spent wisely.
Don't you think?
Well, it depends...

A LOT WOULD BEGIN TO LOOK LIKE A LITTLE After winning the lottery, you tend to meet
a lot of rich people, so even if you just won the 10 million dollar lottery, when you
enter a room filled with people who won the hundred million dollar lottery or people who
have over two hundred million, you begin to feel like the poorest person in the room.
It's like when you have just worn a gorgeous dress for a party, and on the way, you are
getting looks and compliments, but at the party, every other person's dress looks as
good as yours or even better and all of a sudden you don't feel special anymore.
It's best not to feel too down about this and try to enjoy your newfound wealth.
8.
IMPULSE PURCHASES When you win the lottery, you get a lot of
money in your account.
Suddenly, it would be seem like it's best to buy everything you see and you even begin
to develop specific tastes, like you now only drink champagne, or you can only live in a
house with six bedrooms.
Most lottery winners move into a mansion or buy a really expensive car days after winning
the lottery.
In the end, these purchases may come to bite you in the back, but who cares?
You've just won the lottery!
7.
ALWAYS TAKE A SECOND CHANCE Some experts advise that you mail in your
losing ticket or register its serial number for the opportunity to win large prizes from
second-chance drawings, and so do lottery winners.
Most people don't know about second-chance drawings or are too distracted to enter.
Entering the second-chance drawing increases your odds of winning the lottery.
6.
YOU GET ASKED A LOT OF MONEY QUESTIONS Things like, Where do you keep the money?
What do you spend it on?
How much do you have left?
Have you invested some of it?
These are questions that would come up in almost every conversation.
It gets tiring when the same person asks you for the fifth time.
It's difficult to imagine everyone Jeff Bezos talks to asking him how much money he has
left.
I really don't think that happens.
But for lottery winners, it's like a conversation starter and often ends up in you giving the
person some money or paying for their meal.
5.
GIVING COMES NATURALLY Giving comes easier to some lottery winners.
After winning the lottery, you can buy anything you want and also impact the lives of a handful
of people in significant ways.
Lottery winners tend to donate to charities and orphanages often.

TV SHOWS AND BIG CHEQUES It is challenging to win 100 million dollars
and remain anonymous.
Many states even require that lottery winners do news conferences, TV shows and hold up
fat checks.
After winning the lottery, you may find yourself shoved into the spotlight.
You would probably become a local celebrity and have to cut a lot of ribbons.
You would know if your next-door neighbor has won the lottery when you see vans from
the press and news anchors holding up microphones to his mouth while he is in his pajamas.
Winning the lottery is also the easiest way to become a celebrity.
3.
YOUR LIFESTYLE AND FRIENDS WILL CHANGE Winning the lottery would surely change your
life in a big way.
These changes would also affect everyone in your life.
It may surprise you how the people around you would begin to change after winning the
lottery.
You would also develop new interests, hobbies and of course, friends.
Going on trips and vacations would feel like a typical Wednesday for you, but finding people
to go with may become complicated if you keep the same friends.
Imagine you want to travel to the Maldives on a random weekend.
Your buddies would probably not have that kind of cash to throw around, so what do you
do?
Find a rich buddy or subsidize the trip for your old one.
2.
GIVE IN BITS Giving all the money you feel like at once
isn't always the best idea.
You may be feeling extra happy that morning, or you saw a cute estranged animal on TV,
so you may want to donate the money little by little.
Donating a few thousand dollars each year over ten years is better than giving fifty
million dollars at once our lottery winners report.
Giving in bits helps you retain control of the money and monitor how it is being appropriately
spent.
