    You wrote, “Why do most big lottery winners end up broke?”

    I asked, “Have you considered the actual reasons?”

    You have not answered.

    So, have you considered the actual reasons, why most big lottery winners end up broke?

    What are the reasons?

      BECAUSE THEY DIDN’T EARN THE MONEY. This isn’t hard. There are numerous articles, papers, and podcasts on the topic. When you don’t earn something, you don’t respect it. I thought your question was rhetorical because it’s so asinine.

        Are you aware of any cases of unearned income or wealth that would not strongly support your generalization, particularly any that may relate to the themes mentioned in the post?
