Lottery Effects
I saw this statement at AT's blog:
97% of all lottery winners after 3 years are in worse shape than when they started the day prior to winning the lottery.
I couldn't verify that, but I did find the following:
Winning $15,000 a year for 20 years - no major effect on your life
Winning $80,000 a year for 20 years - would affect your labor force
participation, automobile expenditures, the value of the home you own,
and your savings....
Much more at the link.
