The money is a curse. It'd be a curse for anyone, but the people who play the lottery generally have poor money management skills, and tend to come from a background where the people around them have poor money management skills too, in addition to liking money too much. If you give someone like this an "insane" amount of money, it's like cruelly fulfilling his wishes, in a Faustian sort of way.

Some people are just generous to a fault

I know a guy who ran his parents business into the ground when he took over their business in his 50s

The moment his parents retired and left him the business, the business, which was making like 1.5 million a year, immediately he started buying friends luxury cars, simping for single mothers and buying them cars and paying their rents, buying cars for the kids of the single mothers he was simping for, he ended up running the business into the the ground since he didnt do anything to maintain it and just spent money

Why do people squander their lottery winnings? ZERO financial discipline. Zero future outlook. Buying lavish homes and cars. I believe the same dynamic applies to athletes who make it, then lose it all.

Seems like it would be so easy to thrive after such a windfall. Who knows right?

This. Wealth correlates strongly with IQ everywhere in the world. No matter what wealth you start at, you will eventually find yourself at the appropriate wealth level.

Now, as to whether this is because IQ is racist and shit or because it affects decisions with consequences for wealth is still up for debate. We're only talking about the correlation here.

I think the phrase you're looking for is 'desperate for validation'
To survive winning the lottery you need some level of self-actualization. If all your validation comes externally then you're going to spend money to try and get more of it.

Lmao no retard there's a reason IQ and wealth is strongly correlated. A low IQ dumbass isn't thinking about the percentage of their money they have to spend to survive the week. All they want is instant gratification because they are literally incapable of delayed gratification and planning for the future. That's why they're playing the lottery in the first place because they want to get rich quick.
What happens if you give a retard that can't delay gratification $27 million? They're gonna spend it all on booze, cars, drugs, houses until they run out.

Same as 3rd-gen wealth, absolutely no financial sense and they just squander it all. Plus, America is somewhat cruel in that lottery winners have to do publicity events in most states, they can't really declare their winnings anonymously. So you have a lot of stories about how the winners are hounded by "charities", parents with sob stories, police and council harass and fine them for any reason, etc. Hear the same stories in my cunt too, one of the biggest winners was a married couple that eventually ended up divorced and moved to other parts of the country because of the stress and harassment they get from people wanting their money. That's why I feel pity for this guy >>54572944.

They underestimate the ability of costs to scale and how destructive a bad social network can be. With costs, there is always a "diamond premium super subscriber" option on like everything or some service that you can pay someone to do for you and that means you can turn $3,000/month in expenses into $30,000/month with ease.

With social networks, getting $20 million dumped in your lap doesn't work if everyone around you are spiritually niggers or literal niggers. Money allows you to shake those people off like fleas, but they will call you every name and insult in the book while you're shaking them off. Some of them might even go so far as to commit crimes against you. Most people don't have the temperament to be rich and most people never develop it.

As your net worth builds, you need to become absolutely ruthless and that is something people aren't prepared for which is why they tend to stall out, lose all their money, or something along those lines. You make money, suddenly you're the go to guy. Everyone wants you at their table, everyone wants you at their party, everyone wants to give you a call a talk for 45 minutes to see how you're doing. And some of those people want the diamond premium super subscriber option and what luck, they know you with all your money!

You need to learn to tell people "no" which isn't comfortable for a lot of people and then even worse, you're going to absolutely need to tell people to "fuck off" as politely yet clearly as you can. If you don't, these types of people will collapse your life. Here is the line I use: "I don't want to associate with you personally or professionally, good luck" and then build distance. It took me years to get to that point. Lottery winners don't have a prayer.

You cannot train IQ you fucking idiot, the whole point of IQ tests is to take it once, preferably at a young age, to determine if you are gifted/genius or not, if you just memorize the patterns and retake the test then it defeats the purpose. Your IQ is final once you are born because its based on genetics. Feel free to cope though low IQ subhuman, your life is not needed.

That's like saying you can't train your body and you have to use it with the same training level for your whole life. That's stupid. The age and the academic level of a person will play into account for the IQ results. That's factual. Nothing is set in stone, and your brain evolves during your whole life.

I never took an IQ test BTW, for what purpose ? Will it make my life better if I have a high IQ ? What good does it make except being able to brag about it like you're doing ? I'd rather have good social intelligence (something I lack) to succeed in the professional environment and to easily flirt with women, and surprise, it's not something measured by IQ tests.

Your brain is a processor just like your computer cpu. Optimized properly can give results far above poor optimization. You can even overclock your cpu for short boosts of mental accuity. While yes your stuck with a ryzen 7 1700x or whatever it can fluctuate withing a range.

You could also get into EQ which can grow. Or nueral plasticity retainment. Much more is in your control than you realize.

Fifty percent of lottery tickets are bought by the lowest thirty percent income earners. When these types of people win, they often have no idea how to handle money, or that money can make money just by existing. So, after a couple of years of spending extravagantly, loaning money to friends and family that will never pay it back, and poor investments, they find themselves right where they started.
On the contrary, people on this board could actually make far better use of the millions. Think about it, people here are already so fucking used to failure and risks that they could recognize and invest better. The scalpers, the linkies, even the dextools gem hunters could make it considering all they do each day is invest in multiple coins and harvest the results.

If the retards that buy tickets can get the powerball and milliondollar to billions, why can't the public just set up a fund that people pay into that would pay 70 random people 100,000 dollars for that year? Obviously corrupt people would be near the organization that sets this up, but government intervention and yearly audits may prevent scummy fucks. Like the moneys goes straight into different index funds. Yrly return of 7%? And just pay out 5% of that years return. If no return or negative return then pay out 3%. Shit even 1% return on a billion is 10 million. If your life can't be helped with 100k you are already loss.

A S&P 500 fund is going to return 10% a year on average, so if you invested all $10 mil you'd net about $1 mil in earnings a year. You can live very comfortably on $1 mil a year even after taxes, that would put you in like the 99.8th percentile on income.

You can't discuss wealth without discussing industriousness. But on its own it doesn't amount to wealth. But you don't have to be intelligent to become rich, starting position is also very important. But too much confounding for me to actually give any opinion. My best friend has 5 mill$ + in Sweden starting from nothing, he didn't even manage to finish highschool. He was addicted to WoW at 19 but flipped a switch 3 years later. I have no explanation. This is in Sweden so getting rich is at least hard considering taxes.

Winning the lottery doesn't automatically give you good money management skills. And anyone who has ever had to balance a budget will tell you that money flies. You spend a little here and a little there and the next thing you know it's gone. It's a simple matter of the money coming in is more than the money going out. That retard in your picture though "wow I wonnthe lottery so I can buy anything I want forever" and he was wrong. They made a documentary about him and he was buying stupid shit like 15tf copper dolphin statues, a mansion lined with gold...etc. Being conservative, if you only spent 50k per purchase, whatver amount of money you have divide it by 50k and that is how many purchases you can make till you have to suck dick for rent money
