Answer:

According to both stories, most people who go rich suddenly are often plagued with bad decisions that leave them impoverished and in most cases in a worse state (financially, mentally, relationally and healthwise) than they were before the wealth.

Explanation: of Baba Abdalla, he had grown his wealth steadily and lost it to an Ascetic. An Ascetic is someone who is committed to living a plebian life whilst doing good deeds.

Something had shifted in the Ascetics mind upon observation of Baba's wealth. The Ascetic who was known for good deeds decided to trick Baba. Baba trusting in the goodness of the Ascetic and not believing him to be a greedy character went along with same until he became poor and blind in one eye.

In the articles about Lottery winners who go bankrupt, the story is not too different. There is a case for instance about a woman who won over a million dollars. She divorced her husband soon as she learnt of the win. Her ex-husband later came to the knowledge of the win, filed a countersuit and was adjudged to take ownership of all the winnings. The court's decision was based on the fact that the woman had violated the laws relating to disclosure of assets. The woman ended badly due to greed.

No! Living there would be a nightmare for me, I'm what you would call "mixed." In the book you're reading the towns folk believe in segregation and punish those unjustly because of the color of their skin. It's also a very poor part of Alabama based on the description so schools would be awful, neighborhoods might be riddled with crime, and community resources would be very limited or non-existent (community centers, parks, hospitals, etc). 

As for the second half, it was absolutely cruel. The parents should have kept a better eye on their children and reprimanded them for being so inconsiderate. They should have also educated them on letting other people just be since we're all different, with our own challenges.
