It did happen. I watched it happen. We can't get into his mind, but I can tell you that I know this guy very, very well, and he never dreamed anything like that would happen. He figured he'd be able to make it all work out somehow, and it did not work out. He was always spending like he was a big shot. The only problem was he didn't have enough income to support his perception that he had a big fat wallet.
I don't know where to go with this anymore. There are lots of people who spend and spend because they feel like there is no need to worry, and they get themselves into real sticky situations. There are people addicted to gambling, who are absolutely CERTAIN that they are going to win it all back, and they lose everything. People who have to break into their kids' piggy banks to go buy food because they've spent every last cent at the casino, because they KNEW they would win. They still know they will win. Next time.
And spending the ten bucks on gambling (lottery tickets) because it's fun, when you may or may not have another ten bucks tomorrow for the diabetic cat (or the diabetic child, for that matter) -- you seriously tell me that's ok? Because tomorrow, lots of money might just appear out of nowhere?
