Prize lottery winner

The opinion of the lottery of people who failed to win large sums in it is not very interesting for the majority, because here everything is clear. But what can those who managed to hit a huge jackpot tell how they were affected by this victory?

On the one hand, all the winners confirm that they are paid money, they really receive these huge amounts. True, you still have to pay tax. But how does the life of the lucky ones change? Basically, they buy new houses or apartments for themselves, several cars each (both for themselves and for their family members), go on an expensive vacation. Often people quit their jobs, especially if they are prestigious and low paid (for example, a nurse in a hospital).

However, further many of the winners simply do not know where to put such amounts, especially if the gain is measured in hundreds of millions of rubles. It is very difficult for these lucky people to dramatically change their lifestyle to a new one corresponding to their condition. For example, a pensioner and her daughter, who lived in a small urban-type village in the Bryansk region, won about 500 million rubles. But, having received this money, they did not move to Moscow or even Bryansk, although they could do it without any problems. They continue to live there, albeit in a new house. In fact, although winning helped them solve all everyday problems, they did not change their lifestyle, since victory did not change their inner world.

And here there is a key difference between money earned “just like that” and money earned by hard work. The very fact of hard and hard work changes the psychology of a person, makes him successful, tempers. Therefore, such people not only know how to earn a lot, but also understand how to spend money. In the case of luck in the lottery, such an internal change does not occur in a person, so he is not ready for such a sharp change in the size of his wallet. This is precisely the reason for many sad stories, when money that has fallen as if from heaven did not make the winners happy, but broke their lives.

If you still want to play, we’ll tell you the sad news - all lotteries are built in such a way that on average the player is not profitable to participate in them, and there are no winning strategies.

Yes, one person may be lucky, but his prize is paid by other participants in the game, who failed to get anything. At the same time, only 50% of the proceeds from the sale of tickets is used to pay prize money, the remaining amount goes to the organizers. So think 100 times before buying a lottery ticket. Gambling makes almost no one happy, but there are more than enough sad stories related to them.
