Many of us dream of getting rich overnight. Heck, some youths do the foolish thing of quitting school and joining talent search auditions, believing that they can be the next somebody and be super rich in the end. More conveniently, the lotto is there to give people chances to win instant wealth.
There is however a dark side to winning the lottery.
Check this article out.
TAMPA - One person's blessing is another person's curse.
Most of us dream of winning the lottery; of days spent leisurely on the new boat, or jetting to sun-splashed beaches in southern France. For some, that sudden wealth is a burden; a constant struggle of having to say no to family and friends and yes, take what you want, to the government.
In all the cases, the sudden, life-changing wealth changes them. Whether the change is for the better depends on the person. While some relish never having to worry about how much a car or house costs, others find the newfound wealth too much to handle.
Some have stories about dreams fulfilled, about investments that ensure wealth for generations to come. Others talk about making an effort not to change at all; of continuing to work; of driving the same car, living in the same house.
And others tell of a plague of problems and of sieges of beggars; family, friends and strangers; of lawsuits between relatives and of being dragged to court by the government; and in one case, prison on tax fraud charges.

There was that song from long ago -
"Money! Money! Money changes everything!"
Something like that.
What again is the minimum age requirement to participate in the lotto? Should he/she be at least 18 years old?
