Question

Stories and new articles about people becoming wealthy are familiar to most people. In both "The story of baba abdalla" and the article "Lots of lottery winners go bankrupt" people suddenly become rich useing the evidence from the text compare and contrst how the people in both texts react to thier sudden wealth.

Answer 1

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.
