Plenty of examples abound. Lottery winners, for one.

That’s nothing compared to what Washington, DC has squandered away.

Same way Elvis did. Constant spending, bad financial mismanagement, etc. Elvis was only a millionaire but he lived and spent like he was a billionaire. His father, a 5th grade dropout, was in charge of managing Elvis’ money, his talent manager, Tom Parker, was robbing Elvis with bad deals.

At the time of his death, his estate was worth only 5 million dollars, and half of that was in cash.

"Gradually, and then all at once" sayeth Hemingway.

Anyway, if one happens to be into that kinda stuff, one would suggest visiting Graceland sooner rather than later. It won't be there for much longer, the day will come when it gets sold off to make room for a new CVS or some other such BS like a certain cult getting their hooks into it.

Slowly, at first, and then all at once.

In the 1970s all of the Vanderbilt met for a reunion at Biltmore. There was not one millionaire in the group.

You spend it on booze, whores and drugs, and the rest you just squander.
