The parent did not market this link enough but OP please read it! Especially if you are not already on your path to financial independence or not really bothered with investments.

This is a writing about people suddenly got money and how they got destroyed by it and how can you avoid it. What can happen in your family because of it. How and why to be quiet about your wealth.

Entertaining and great read and always the first thing I remember when somebody wishes for a jackpot.

You're right, I could have done a better job explaining what this is about. Thanks for doing that part for me!

I've read this before. And it's good, but it's more about what to do if you make >$100M. It strikes me as something somebody writes from hypothetical, not from experience.
