Saz is quite right, there's a book out there (can't remember the name) that pursues the lives of a dozen lottery winners worldwide. There wasn't a single happy story among them.
One guy was totally miserable. His entire family wasn't speaking to him; he gave them all money and every single one of them figured he didn't give them enough!
Then there's the girl who was single and won $25 million...her phone rang off the hook for weeks by potential suitors...
My favourite story, though, is the one about the blue collar man that won a fortune and bought his favourite pub and a limo. He'd drink himself unconcious every day, and have the limo drive him home. Within a year, he was dead.
