Years ago I watched a BBC documentary about the fate of big lottery winners. Out of 10 surveyed and interviewed 8 were worse off or their lives were upended with family breakup.
The windfall they had was squandered within a short span of time as they led a lavish lifestyle and spent excessively. Some became addicted to gambling and lost all the money they won in lottery. Others spent money on women that led to breakup of their families .
The survey concluded that sudden windfall may not necessarily bring happiness, in fact majority of the winners had their lives turned upside down and lived a miserable life and wished they had not never won the lottery.

  • took the next 45 consecutive days to drinking expensive hard liquor at his regular club
Unfortunately for Mr Teo, after the 45th night of drinking, when he got up to shower the next day, he slipped and fell in the bathroom and fractured his spine.


45 days everyday drinking at his regular club? More like go and show off to the nightclub women la.

This kind even if he don’t fall and fracture his spine will also end up liver issues.

Donkey years ago, when I was doing a holiday job before going NS. I remb got one full time staff there treat all of us to a restaurant for a 8 course dinner because he struck 4D and won almost $200k. I remb he also tendered his resignation. But someone told me he every week buy 4D very hiong one.
But at least he ish very satki Bro JivBunny... :(

$200k also dare to resign. Must be very unhappy with his job.
