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.
Maybe it was strategic, since he won big he wanted to quit gambling. There is a verse in the bible that reads something along the lines ' If your hand causes you to sin cut it off' of course I am paraphrasing here and i'm not exactly sure of the verse at the top of my head but perhaps this friend of their's didn't want to be tempted. I for one respect his decision. Also, those friends of his may get jealous or expect him to give them some money because they are friends and he fell into a small fortune. Who knows, but at the end of the day you show me your friends and i'll show you your future is also a true saying, one you should live by. Truly.
We never knows what is his reason avoids his friends after his winning. Many reasons can makes someone change and avoids or left his friends after he had a big money. One of the reasons is because he doesn't wants his friends comes to him and asks for the money as their part because they are his friends. That one popular reason that happens in many place so someone who had the money will avoids his friends. But there will be other reasons why he did that but he doesn't wants to explain his reasons. Maybe he will tells the reason to other friends or family because they don't related to his friends so they can accept his reason. Maybe his friends will jealous with his winning or else but his friends should accept what his decision and lets him do what he wants with his money.
