Many people dream of winning the lottery, imagining how their lives will change when they become rich. However, a 28-year-old man who won a huge jackpot of lottery at 18 years is convinced that sudden wealth has become a real nightmare for him. At the popular Reddit forum, he shared his experience, telling how the won prize destroyed his life.
When the guy received a win, he decided to just enjoy life without having to work or strive for some life goals. The first thing he bought was a small house where he spent the next ten years without thinking about the future. However, instead of investing in his future or engaging in self -development, he acknowledges that he spent these years on meaningless entertainment: hours for computer games, watching movies and series, aimless seating on the Internet. The man even tried to build a relationship at a distance, but these attempts were not successful. He also decided to get a higher education by joining the Faculty of Law, but lost his motivation and quit his training, which led to the loss of much of the money. At the time he was 28, he realized that he still did not have professional experience, social relationships or life goals. Feeling anxiety and dissatisfaction, he admits: "Winning in the lottery became a curse, because I have neither direction, nor hobbies, nor even personality."
Comments from network users indicate possible options to change the situation: invest the balance of funds, engage in volunteer activities, travel or try to create your own business. But he does not yet know how to find a way out of this state and restore meaning in his life.
