I wonder if she has zero money management knowledge?

I wonder if she has boyfriend(s) who have taken advantage of her?

I wonder lots of things, but, I would guess that she doesn’t understand how to rent out property, make it a business property, all of that, in order to generate income from investing her money.

I have heard that some lottery winners have ended up broke years later.

I have heard the same of some professional athletes who earned millions, and who theoretically will not have money problems for the rest of their lives, if they had managed their money wisely.

I have heard that some lottery winners have ended up broke years later....I can tell you horror stories about this from people I know or have been associated with. For instance the couple in Franklin, Pa who won a couple of million got a Corvette from a dealer (who had read about it in the paper), Got four speeding tickets trying to go 325 miles to Harrisburg area and years later ended up going to court where the judge took the money and put them on an allowance. The guy in Erie, Pa who won a few million and within fifteen months, couldn’t pay his taxes from gambling sports online. Also, I knew of a nice lady who lost her husband in VN, who accepted welfare, help from us veterans who knew her husband and the local American Legion who won a lot of money (not millions) and went to the welfare office to pay it back. They didn’t want it.
