Hi Stavros. I myself don’t think money changes you. I once heard someone say that money doesn’t change you, it makes you a bigger whatever you already are. I agree with that. Its brings out more of whats already there. Someoen who is generous and giving sin’t suddenly going to become miserly and someone who is miserly isn’t suddenly going to spend like there is no tommorrow. Having millions will increase those already entrenched traits, maybe to their detriment, maybe not. Thats my 2 cents(because I haven’t won the lottery yet so its all I’ve got at the moment;)

Personaly i believe that the most winners of lottery, when they win the money they become buzzard. They change the way they think, they change their pesronality, they change everything on them. And the problem is that they get very sniffy. They think that they are the ones and they do not respect anybody. They think only their selfs. They dont think that with that money they can give some help to the people who realy need them. The only thing how they will spent them all for their selves. And because of this action, the universe take the money back in such way that they result completely broke. I beleive that if somebody wins the lottery and he spents a percentage of the money to help people, he will always have money and he will never get broke.
Thats my opinion…

I’m not complaining, I’m not sad or upset, I’m actively thanking the Universe financial wealth and success and most importantly to be a good steward over my wealth always. Any comments or advice regarding my situation?
-husband was laid off in 2004,
launched a business that produced very little money.
-i was carrying us financially
but lost my job.
-no income at the moment.
-after reading this, I’m going to take the steps to manifest a lottery win (as I continue to seek employment). i will have to think about the exact amount.
Any suggestions regarding the above.
Many thanks.

“95%+ lottery winners are broke a year after they win”

Where did you hear this, is this fact?
I am interested in manifesting this understanding in my life. It is inconceivable to me that I could learn to spend money that fast. The interest from investing or bank account alone from a lotter win is enough to make my wallet impossible to sit on in a week.

Antonio I fully agree with what you said. My two dollars…

The lottery winner may have focused on winning the lottery, but didnt focus on anything past that. So after winning the lottery the manifestation came and he didnt have anything else to focus on. So the money slowly goes away (or quickly). This is what happens to many people that focus on the thing instead the means to the thing or the wisdom to handle the thing. Imagine a guy that really wants a nice car and wins a $300K Bentley. Yeah thats nice. Until he needs to take it in for servicing or an oil change. That alone could be some peoples monthly salary. And the same goes for everyone else that benefits from the lottery winner. Because Bob’s electronics may benefit from the $100k, but maybe what he really needed was $200K. SO what he should have focused on was that his business is successful…no matter what.

Antonio, I really like your take on this. It makes alot of sense and I think there is some truth to it. I also want to say that the reason I think the reason lottery winners who will lose the money win in the first place is that for one moment, one ver powerful, magnetic moemnt, they are aligned with what it is they want, in this case, winning the lottery. They of course have no idea how they made it happen so the magic fades and in a year the are applying for their old job. Thats my dime’s worth.

I think it is a mix of both people’s LOA working together..Another persons wanting of money and the lotto winners fear of losing it, put both together and it’s bound to happen. If a lotto winner knows the LOA and is using it, they wont lose it.
Also I believe that Jesus was a man on earth, a great man that new the law of attraction and how to use it perfectly. I think all bibles have been changed and modified to conform to others beliefs and the real words of christ have been lost or misinterpreted. We all have our own inner being that guides us, not some big guy in the sky that is judging our every move. We just need to listen.

Great insight and brings several points to my mind:

The LORD sends poverty and wealth; He humbles and He exalts. 1 Samuel 2:7 The lottery winner who lost his money AND the electronic store owner

Rich and Poor have this in common: the Lord is the Maker of them all. Proverb 22:2

He who works will have abundant food but the one who chases fantasies will have his fill of poverty. Proverbs 28:19 example of the electronic store owner who WORKS and the lottery winner chasing his fantasies.

“…. money is the answer to everything” Ecclesiastes 10:19 Yes it is in the Bible!

However you must go to Matt 25:14 and realize that the Master is God…to understand the “action” you must take.

Back to the lottery winner:
“and what use is money in the hand of a fool, since he has no desire to get wisdom?” Proverbs 17:16

I still purchase my $2 weekly lottery tickets….because if you don’t have a ticket you can not win!

At the same time I have a folder where I have place articles just like this one about winning the lottery and how it has changed different people lives…I have decided that should I win millions I would start a foundation with 90% of my winnings… that gives to other charities and I would take the other 10% for my personal growth.

Having moved within the pass two years to a smaller home, “things” is not what I want. I want to develop “memories” in my children and grandchildren. I want to help others help themselves out of financial bondage. I want to help our children “to think” instead of demanding the latest new toy. (Forgot to mention I also sub-teach in public school so I see first hand what is going on)

Thank again for this wonderful article and all the wonderful comments.
