At one of the local gambling shop I visited during the weekend I happened to listen to a conversation between two bald looking gamblers at the shop talking about one of their gambling colleague who had won a big amount of money amounting to a million in the local currency and due to that win this colleague of theirs' has been avoiding them since e won that money. From their conversation it was obvious that they were a circle of close three friends that gamble together.

After all I finished with my bet headed home and was asking myself what could the colleague act that way avoiding his close friends they all gambling together and just because luck shines on him first he decides to create a distance and class. I couldn't actually annex a good reason why anyone should do that.

Not only gambling winners, but even people who won a lottery ticket I heard about the fact that they were switching off their mobile and not contacting anyone. Some people even have to hide or never say anything about their winnings. The majority of the winners say that if they tell them or try to help them, they will never pay them back, and many friends are asking for help. It's not that they can't help, but many people are approaching them, like friends, relatives, and even the poor, who have never met them before. It's helpless, and then they have their own problems and dreams. Apart from that, they have to pay taxes. People are afraid to tell everyone that they won the prize because many people are trying to hurt or rob them; it's even from their own relatives as well.
