    If you are poor and come into wealth you might not have the skills to use your wealth to your advantage. I knew a man who came to this country 21 years ago from Greece not knowing any english. He got a job washing dishes in a hotel. He won the lottery paying him $28,000 for 20 years. He quit his job, bought a house, a fur coat for his wife and a Cadillac. 20 years later he came back to the same hotel to ask for his old job. He needs money to pay the rest of the mortgage. He still never learned english. He is worse off than he was before.
