Must Dos To Win the Lottery and Keep It

If you are lucky enough to win big at the lottery, there are certainly things you need to consider if you want to get on with your life and remain a happy and content person. You see, strangely as it may seem, winning the lottery does have some serious consequences on your daily life. Of course you will be happy to have won a great deal of money, and I am quite certain that you already have an idea on how you could spend it all, however, there are some important things you really must think about once you become a lottery winner.

In this article we will discuss what happens to people after they win big at the lottery. There are several papers and studies already available out there on how lottery winners start to behave and what actions they take with their money. The first phase after winning the lottery is  사설토토 obviously euphoria. The excitement and joy of winning an incredible amount of money is probably something that few of us ever will experience. In some of these papers, lottery winners who are women in fact compare the feeling of winning the lottery to the joy of giving birth to their firstborn child.

It is not hard to imagine that the rush of winning the lottery can be as addictive as alcohol or narcotic substances. This is also why this mental state of content quickly can leave the lottery winner in a state of depression. There is an old saying that money can not buy happiness, and this seems to be the case when big lottery winnings are won by people who are not happy with their lives to begin with. This is a well-known syndrome that can express itself in many ways.

A very common behaviour is to go on a shopping spree which simply never may end until all of the winnings are gone – cars, electronics, jewelry – the list is endless. A woman in Sweden, a lottery jackpot winner, told a local newspaper that she used to go everywhere by taxi and tip the driver in the amounts of $10,000 USD each and every time. When all of her money was gone she described the lottery win as a curse and that her personal financial state now was much worse than before the win. Another man in his late twenties, also residing in Sweden, told Swedish media that, although he had won the biggest lottery jackpot win in Swedish history, he was feeling depressed and that many of his friends had turned on him out of envy and greed.

So what should lottery winners do to prevent all of this happening? Well, there are initially two critical choices a lottery winner must make. The first one is whom to tell about the win – if anyone. There can actually be many advantages of simply keeping the lottery win as a big secret. Human greed is an ugly thing of nature and can truly ruin longterm friendship. The second one is to actually sit down and thoroughly think through what to do with all of the money.

Now, I do not want to end this article by leaving the impression that winning the lottery may cause all kinds of problems. After all, winning the lottery is something that many people dream of, and buying lottery tickets now and then can both be fun, thrilling and rewarding at times. Neither am I saying that lottery winners should invest everything they have won in stocks, bonds, real estate or other equities.

Perhaps a good way to go is to have a lot of fun with some of the money – travel the world, or experience something you have always dreamed of – and maybe leave the rest to secure the financial future for your family years to come? After all, we only live once.
