ABC News: Powerball Win: Fantasy or Nightmare?

ABC News: Powerball Win: Fantasy or Nightmare?:

"Almost five years later, Whittaker is left with things money can't cure:
His daughter's cancer, a long list of indiscretions documented in newspapers and
court records, and an inability to trust others. 'I don't have any friends,' he
said in lengthy interview with The Associated Press. 'Every friend that I've
had, practically, has wanted to borrow money or something and of course, once
they borrow money from you, you can't be friends anymore.'"


I could see how winning the lottery could be a very bad thing. It is just too much money, I would personally take the payments, which would mean you wouldn't have as much all at once. So much of who we are, is about the struggles we face. What happens when those are taken away, does it change us as people? a photographer using an old camera has learned how to get a great picture from it, it isn't easy but it is art. Give him a top of the line camera that he doesn't understand, will he be able to produce the same art, will it be too easy?
