You Win Some, You Lose Some: Lottery Winners Who Lost Everything

She Lived A Charmed Life…Until The Money Ran Out

Sharon Tirabassi is the epitome of the generic win big, spend big, lose big situation we often see in lottery winners. After receiving $10 million in 2004, she lived the high life to the fullest for 10 years, buying a huge house, nice cars, and expensive clothes. After riding in the fast lane and spending all of her money, however, Sharon is back to riding the bus and working her part-time job.

If you do the math, that equates to spending $1 million dollars a year. 10 years of living the lavish life isn’t horrible but she could have been set for life if smart money management was involved. That’s more money than the majority of people in the population will ever get to experience!
