A similar research based on the land lotteries in Georgia in 1832 and in Oklahoma in 1901 showed that outright increases in wealth (i.e., winning the lottery) had little or no effect on generational wealth. There was also another similar research on the land lotteries which showed negative effect on generational wealth.
