Have you or anyone you know, ever come close to/missed out on life changing money? (Lottery or otherwise).

[ThrobbingHood]

It doesn’t have to necessarily be the lottery. It could’ve been someone who fumbled the bag through their own lack of discernment.

My cousin used to be in a lottery pool years ago. They’d play a combination of quick picks and their own numbers they’d always stick to.

Well the guy who would buy the tickets from the store would buy powerball tickets on Tuesday for Wednesday’s draw and tickets on Friday for Saturday’s draw.

Well, Saturday’s draw comes. ALL the numbers that they chose as a pool comes up. Everyone is losing their mind, calling each other up. People are drafting their resignation letters. They all come into the office Monday morning to look at their tickets.

All the numbers match, but the ticket was mistakenly bought for Wednesday’s draw instead of Saturday’s.

Breh, if that was me who made that mistake, I’d have to change jobs just on principle. Imagine looking at those same faces everyday after that.

I won't say too much because it was a pretty big case but I had a family member get a MAJOR settlement and blow through it all with literally nothing to show for it now.

A verse they has always stuck with me. Some people are just destined to squander any blessings they receive sadly.

I had a friend do the same thing.
He got paid 5 million for a light burn on his hand , during a plant explosion.
It was gone with in 3 years.

I was 2 numbers off from hitting the Lottery one year. It was at 11 million and I would've ended up splitting it with the person that exactly hit the numbers.
