Sad stories of lotto Jackpot winners and a lesson to be learned.

 1. The Griffiths bought their dream home then life fell apart.

Before they won a $2.76 million lottery jackpot, Lara and Robert Griffith hardly ever argued.
They bought a million-dollar house and a Porsche.
But six years after their win, Robert drove away in the Porsche after Lara confronted him over emails suggesting he was interested in another woman.
Their 14-year marriage was over, a freak fire gutted their house, and every penny of their fortune was gone.

 

2. Ibi Roncaioli was murdered by her husband after she squandered her winnings

Ontario resident Ibi Roncailoli walked away with $5 million in a 1991 Lotto 649 drawing, but she didn't tell her husband how she decided to spend it.
When Joseph Roncailoli, a gynecologist, found out Ibi gave $2 million of her fortune to a secret child she'd had with another man, he poisoned her with painkillers.
He was found guilty of manslaughter.


3. Evelyn Adams gambled it all away in Atlantic City

Against all odds, in the mid-1980s Adams won the lottery twice, once in 1985 and again in 1986.
The New Jersey native won a cool $5.4 million, but AskMen.com reports she gambled it away  at Atlantic City.
Today she resides in a trailer park.


4. Michael Carroll had a fetish for hookers

Michael Carroll was at his peakwhen he won Britains's 9.7 million euro ($15 million) jackpot in 2002.
But a penchant for life in the fast lane--cocaine, parties, hookers and cars--put him back at square one in five years.
Last we heard, the ex-garbageman was hoping to get his old job back.

  
5. Billy Bob Harrell Jr. had his prayers answered, but his luck ran out

A Pentecostal preacher working as a stockboy at Home Depot got his prayers answered when he hit the $31 million jackpot in 1997.
At first, life was good with Billy Bob buying a ranch, six other homes and some new cars.
But like many others who win the lottery, he just couldn't say 'NO!' when people asked for a handout.
Later in life he divorced and eventually committed suicide.
