I met a lottery winner once. She was a single mom with a teenage son, and she was "rich" when she joined our country club.

A couple of years later she left our club. I asked about her and was told that she was "broke".

I understand this happens with a lot of lottery winners.

Remember this guy from West Virginia who won the 300 mill. powerball? His face says it all.

People rise or fall to the income levels that they are used to. Just review some of the cases of lottery winners from lower income levels. Nearly all blow thru it in a few years, returning to the income level that is normal to them.
