I've come into a Bingo jackpot in Vegas and a Texas Lotto scratch off jackpot (the 2nd highest you could win on this particular game) within 86 days. A good chunk of change, and I'm incredibly blessed and fortunate. I don't understand the "why me?" just yet, and I have a hard time believing God is blessing me through Lotto and Bingo in Vegas, but regardless, I give thanks.
While the amount I won each time (they were the same amount) was what I would consider "a lot," I wouldn't consider it "life changing." After Uncle Sam takes 24% and if I buy this and that, which I've always wanted and would be with me my entire life, I'm left with little remaining and the things I buy aren't necessarily life changing, either, so I'm kinda stuck where I was before.
So the philosophical side of me came out, and I'm really curious: To you, what amount of money would you have to come into whether it was lotto, inheritance, etc, for you to consider it life changing?
