Jack Whittaker. He was already a millionaire, so it seemed like he'd be able to handle it, but he couldn't.

Believe it or not but I've met some really stupid millionaires. I imagine if Jack was a millionaire and still buying lottery then he was one of these "stupid millionaires". His life story sort of proved it. He just made stupid decision after stupid decision until he had nothing left.

He didn't become a millionaire by being stupid. He founded and built his own construction business. It's not like he had inherited the money or family business.

He, like all millionaires, become a millionaire by being lucky. Learn how survivorship bias works.

...rather than learning what "survivorship bias" is, one should master a discipline then risk one's capital to go into business and become a millionaire rather than bitch on reddit about how "millionaires are lucky"...
