Lotto Winner: Will You Be the Lucky One?
If you happen to be a lotto winner your life is never going to be the same again. Not only your life, but the lives of friends and relatives will also change — and the change may not always be positive. Life-changing things have happened to people who have suddenly attained the status of being a lotto winner.
Whether you drew the winning numbers yourself or used the windows lotto pro software, the fact is that you will be richer by tens of millions of pounds or euros, and things will start to change almost immediately.
Winning a record prize of £ 11 million, Mark Gardiner concluded that all his problems were a thing of the past. However, though his present problems vanished, he got into new ones that he was neither trained for or capable of handling. With his business partner, friend Paul Maddison, Mark won the jackpot. Together the two of them won a record £ 22 million and Mark got his share of £ 11 million. Paul shunned the limelight and faded into the background while Mark decided to have some fun.
Before he could comprehend it, Mark blew half of his winnings. Though he gave to friends and relatives, bought expensive cars and houses, married and then divorced, his problems never seemed to end. His family rejected him almost as if he had committed a crime. Finally he regained his bearings and is now wiser and remarried to his first wife (a childhood sweetheart) whom he had divorced when he was penniless.
Happily, not all stories are as heart breaking as the one mentioned above. There have been too many people to count who have made good on their fortune and remained grounded. Ianthe Fullagar, a student, won an awe-inspiring £ 7,055,142. After the to-be-expected screaming in disbelief she settled down and called her boyfriend and family and shared the news with them. Ianthe intends to share her new found wealth with those near and dear to her and to continue to pursue her degree in law. The main new thing she planned to buy was a new car.
An anonymous winner donated all his million winnings to his church without batting an eye. The church has decided to expand to accommodate the growing congregation and donate some of the money to charities.
The point is, as a lotto winner you now are in an enviable position to do a lot of good, both for yourself and for those around you. Your community will benefit too — if you maintain a cool head and spend the money wisely.
