I read an article a while ago (in a magazine, not online) about lottery winners and their eventual downfall. None of them were used to having money, so they spent and lost it all pretty quickly. It was suggested that if you ever win, you should disconnect your phone right away. Charities, old friends and distant relatives will try to track you down. I, for one, would forgo the giant-check-handing-over media ceremony. :)

Not that I wouldn't help them, but I certainly wouldn't want to cause them trouble with the IRS.
Agreed about the first guy. I was reading everything he managed to avoid thinking 'that's not unlucky!'

The last one is really sad. It reminds me of one of those Shakespearean plays where everyone assumes the worst and kills themselves because of what they assumed happened(like in the ends of Romeo & Juliet and Julius Caesar)...
It would really suck to die for a mistake like that, especially if you die for the lottery.
