If I were Filthy Rich
By Beta_Nerdy+131 It would be fascinating to see a professional documentary about SUCCESSFUL Powerball Lottery Winners years after their win!
There have been countless Lottery Powerball winners during the last ten years. What happened to them?
The media is full of stories of Lottery Powerball Winners who squandered all their money, gave it all away, or got in trouble with the law. Aren't there any really successful winners who doubled their winnings in successful businesses or smart investments in stocks or real estate?
How did they invest their money? How did they make their businesses a success? How much money do they have today in comparison to the month after their lottery winnings?
Or stories about how their charity giving changed the lives of people or groups.

+41 @BlueRFR3100 The smart ones keep a low profile and don't give many interviews if they give them at all. They already had to change their phone numbers once, they don't want to have to do it again.
+38 @KharKhas Extensive research showed that lottery winners in general get healthier, spend more time with friends, and live a longer life. https://academic.oup.com/restud/article/87/6/2703/5734654 https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/10434631231159567
+19 @BabiesatemydingoNSW I'd think most big winners would want to stay anonymous. I sure would.
+16 @breadad1969 There are definitely some nice stories out there. Here’s a few [feel good stories](https://www.liveabout.com/lottery-success-stories-to-inspire-you-to-buy-a-ticket-4158108)
+14 @PickASwitch There’s successful ones, but they’re not talking. The first rule of Rich People Club is WE DO NOT TALK ABOUT RICH PEOPLE CLUB.
+11 @DoverBoys The successful ones are the smart people that wouldn't agree to a documentary.
