For every state that has a lottery, there are about a million times as many people (if not more) who, at any given time, are talking about what we’d do with our lottery winnings of we ever won. Where we’d put all those resources, what we’d buy, who we’d help… some of us even have detailed lottery winning plans.

Suddenly coming into a large sum of money is, at best, very troublesome, and at worst, an outright curse. Most lottery winners claim to be in worse financial shape AFTER they won. Additionally, they claim to have fewer friends, and because of this sudden windfall of money, a long line of post-winning broken relationships.
