''Money doesn’t buy happiness? This old guy literally just said it has given him time to spend with family and close friends, something he couldn’t have while working.'' Yea but what about people who don't have family/good relationships with family or not many friends? That and all my mates work fill time and are busy with their own lives, they wouldn't want me hanging around them all the time just because I no longer had to work. Money is great but nothing in the world, money included, can guarantee happiness. Money cannot shield you from all the normal pains, sorrows and tragedies of life. I think that is the mistake that people make-thinking that excess money can offer a utopia when in actual fact, life isn't like that for anybody. If so why are so many of the rich and famous addicts/battled depression etc? Don't get me wrong, I'd love to be rich as much as the next person and it would improve aspects of my life yet I'm still not naive enough to think life would be perfection and flawless just because of money and I'd feel like I was high on happiness 24/7.That's really not how it works. My neighbour was worth tens of millions (around 40) that he inherited yet had dreadful struggles with drink,overeating,depression and demons all through his life and was used left,right and centre for his money by vulchers. He was never a happy man and his family all fell out over the inheritance which caused him great pain. Today in his 70s he lives alone.

Fortitude Valance What a coincidence. An older guy is more mature than a young guy. Who woulda thought it

[@Tommyometer]

Well the younger guy also said that he is worth more than a million now so he must have been kinda smart too

[@fortitudevalance8424]

Luke Aspley I did not say anything about getting up to work for someone else in my comment. You still need a work ethic if you need to work for yourself.

[@SuperiorityQomplex]

In defence, the older guy did blow some money on a Jag too. They both blew money on bs stuff. But luckily, they both figured out that if they kept on that path, they'd be right back to square one in no time. 70% of windfall lottery winners are bankrupt within 3-5 years. It's because being rich has a different mindset. We've all heard about those cheap miserly millionaires that look for a deal on everything. It's because they are used to making money work for them instead of disappearing. That $1000 they could spend on an X would actually turn into say $1500 if they invested well. So they see that X as a $1500 loss rather than the $1000 on the price tag. If more poor and middle class people took this mindset, they'd be way better off. And we've seen just that happen with a lot of rags to riches success stories. But ya, learn about money and how it works and how it can work for you. If you're just spending it on crap that isn't making you money, you're never going to get ahead. And don't just put it into Savings. With inflation, you are losing money daily if it's just sitting in a savings account. Take some time to learn to invest, even if it's a small amount each month. It all adds up.

I don't think he sees it as success. He said that it was a wild moment. He also did say that he's now worth more than what he won

[@chayster97]

I would be happy as fuck if 50 Cent passed me a bottle of vodka while several other celebrities were also at the same place. To me, that shows that he was a commoner; a track suit in the UK is worn by no snob in the UK, and he says that he had a £20,000 debt. To go from that, to paying £15,000 for a table somewhere and being passed a bottle of vodka by 50 Cent? Yeah, nah. That’s when I could happily say I’ve made it in life. It may not be a lot of money, but I for one could never see 50 Cent giving me anything, nor even think of spending £15,000 on a table at a fancy place. Even if I was rich I would think that’s a bit fucking much.

Wow. This is fascinating; thank you very much for producing this! I'm also a lottery winner and it's so novel and special to meet others who have won!

I'm now combining my experience with my desire to meet and interview other winners and people who have come into sudden wealth and fame on my channel. It's really rare to win the lottery, but it does happen!

[@analea6531]

A lot of you don’t understand that the goal is not to triple your Winning by investment, the goal is to find peace and not go broke again. The young guy didn’t fail, yes he waisted a lot of money but that was to expect but the fact that he’s not broke is a victory itself. The old guy is a gem, he had a long humble life to earn wisdom before winning and to realize the hidden value of the money. The simple fact that he was able to work as a bus driver after being an engineer without bitterness or anger is the sign he’s a real one. Wish them both the best

[@LethalAltitude]

I love how the young guy thinks that his friends aren’t just using him for money... they are.

1M isnt that much if you stop working. Just with living that money would be burned in like 10 years max - but maybe I'm biased cause I live in Switzerland and living is expensive here

[@seigeengine]

Invested, 1M is enough for a modest house and to retire with a middle class income with no work from ROI, and I don't live in a cheap place, although, probably not as expensive as Switzerland. You can live in some decent yet cheap places for like ~500 a month (not where I live, but, we're talking from different countries so you get my gist)

1m in 10years ? so you'd blow nearly 10k a month ?

This kids gonna go broke. If you dont have an income and are just spending constantly, that money will be gone mad quick. Basically if youre not working and just spending willy nilly it wouldnt take long at all. I know a person who won 100k on a scratcher in Florida. He was into drugs at the time and spent half of it in 6 months. The other half was in a CD and he took that and skipped town - which was probably a good idea. I work at an FBO with private planes and jets. Those are actual rich people who make millions a year. They are cheap as hell and dont spend anything they dont need to.

Everyone out here saying the young guy is a knob. You give me the impression of jealousy, he's young living a boring life, and he comes into a decent amount of money. He enjoys it, fine may have blew through some but that is almost expected. I researched into him and came across his social media/s. Not only does he appear to be living a happy life but he also appears to be running what looks to be a successful prestige car dealership... There is an essence of judging a book by its cover here, whilst he didn't exactly delve into what he has done to set a future up for himself. There is no need to jump to conclusions.

[@03Heaven90]

The sad thing is they’re not even judging the book by the cover. It’s plastered all over the comment section that he owns a dealership and he said himself he is worth more now. They’re bound to have seen it before they wrote their comments. The truth is society nowadays hates young success. The people making these comments will either be middle aged people bitter because someone younger than them is more successful, or other young people that are simply jealous.
