If you won the lottery would it solve your problems?

[Aonewayticketplease]

Dito when I found out my friends were all a wastes of space

This is the biggest issue that I have in life. Most people are trash. Hope you can can overcome this as I can't.

Yes it would make a big difference. $10 million would be my ideal figure. I'm sure it would come with its own set of problems (i.e. people), but it would be helpful. I could purchase private healthcare, medical products, a vehicle, in-home assistance and private care for my partner, plenty of money to invest in assets, and the rest would be carefully given with discretion to a few chosen people who deserve it in my life. I would also probably buy a home.

 

[not-2-b-the-answer]

Yes . All i need is more money to do my surgeries

There isn't enough money in the world to make me pretty.

 

[Ikumi]

It would solve all my work related anxiety at least and my life would be a lot better but I'd still be a huge mess.

 

[Alexerini]

I think it wouldn't solve my problem. I'd probably spend it quickly to get the thrill and then get bored.

 

[BabyYoda]

If I could use it to buy love, then yes

 

[morningdew]

no. Cant buy health

 

[andy69]

Yes

 

[Deleted member 14573]

No.

Money can't fix my damaged reputation or the mistakes I made in the past. It can't make me feel any less alone or fix my health issues either.
It won't bring back my dead loved ones.

Money is the least of my worries.

 

[TimeToBiteTheDust]

Life taught me money isn't everything. My life is fucked up and can't reverse. I wouldn't be happy if I were millionaire.

 

[frostedreef]

My reason for CTB is not being able to support myself in the near future. So winning the lottery will keep me going. I'll still be depressed and lonely though.

 

[Cashewmilk]

I do think it will sometimes... I wrote about this a few weeks ago and really believed it would, I was wishing hard for it but hardly played it. But nowadays I'm feeling different about it. I have a weird personality disorder probably similar to BPD so I change my views a lot and my inner feelings often change back and forth.
Unless money can buy me a new body and brain and life, I don't think it'll help actually. It will make me extremely happy for a while... and I'd be living the life I've always wanted: carefree, doing absolutely nothing, resting, sleeping, taking it easy, doing whatever the hell I want, not being emotionally abused because of my lack of money, getting some therapy and trying different therapies, having unlimited supply of my self medication drugs, and all the food and services I needed. I'm not materialistic and would never waste money on shoes cars purses and clothes... I'd get some nice comfy clothes though, 100% cotton grandma dresses

But I don't know if this feeling will ever go away. I have this strange uneasy feeling that happens sometimes. My mom says it could be anxiety. I've been having since I was a very small child. It makes me feel very uncomfortable, and not wanting to be there in that moment, used to happen a lot when I sat in the main living room where my family hung out, so I preferred being in my room mostly, alone. Not sure if a fruitful life will help. Drugs help. So money can buy drugs. I've wanted money so badly in my life, I have dreams about it, more than you can imagine, and lots of it. All because of my addiction. Money can also buy N. But something inside me is not feeling very optimistic about it. I would feel really terrible for people who don't have it while I would. I'm definitely not trying to win the lottery, we'd only get up to 70 million here, and half will go to my family anyway lol

 

[Float On Okay]

Hell no. That will never get rid of Earthly pain and suffering.

 

[Hopeindeath!]

No, I really would rather have a terminal illness than win the lottery.

 

[Blue Portal]

If you were to win a million, 10 million, 100 million, would it solve the reason for you being on this site? Would you still feel suicidal? I'd love to win that much money and I'd probably do some spontaneous stuff with it, but I'd really just plan on leaving it for those I love.
I remember when Anthony Bourbain died specifically, so many were curious as to how a man of his fame and fortune could commit such an act. I understood though, because realistically no amount of money will fix the problems that I face and have faced.

Yes it would go a long way but it wouldn't fix all my problems.

 

[muffin222]

Not necessarily. But, I could afford therapy

 

[mathieu]

No, money wouldn't solve my problems.

 

[itsallover]

No, I just have really hated life since a young age. Its always shit you gotta do and get through problem after problem. Thanks, but no thanks. Now I have a chronic, nearly debilitating problem and looking at a life of disability and poverty. Fuck that.

 

[The Dark Chaos]

I can imagine a lot of things I'd do with it but I know they still won't make me happy. Like, true happiness..So eventually I'll catchh the bus..

 

[ecolerumble]

Not really, my problem is not related to the material, the problem comes mainly from my way of thinking and certain troubles

 

[Maybe the end]

Maybe stay a little longer to have a more detailed CTB plan but basically would not change my decision. And I don't want reincarnation. I think I experience enough on the earth.

 

[Jon86]

Partially, i'd fly around to get the best medical care money could buy for my various health problems, although I doubt much could be done, i've tried for years.

I'd still be alone, anyone who came into my life after winning the lottery would be their for the money, it wouldn't feel right. The best it could buy would be a comfortable lonely existence filled with hedonism and isolation. Perhaps, spending money to help others in need and my family would bring me enough fulfillment, idk, i'll never win the lottery.

 

[Vickyalmighty]

If I get 50000 dollars it would solve my issues and I am out of ctb

 

[JustAnotherSuicider]

No. Well, maybe some of them, but that wouldn't make me want to stay alive as most of my problems can't be solved with money. But that would make CTB easier for me, so it would solve my biggest problem, which is life :)

 

[idontevenknowanymore]

It would probably solve some problems for a short time but in the end, my past has messed up my mind. Money can't get rid of my depression, trauma, anxiety, borderline, BED and so on.
For a long time I thought that money would make me happy again but I don't believe in that anymore. I don't know, never had more than 500 per month so that's that.

 

[IwishIwasAttractive]

Yes so I could get plastic surgery

this and living in this house with my golden retriever. can't be unhappy

 

[seekingoblivion]

No I'd still be my shitty self

 

[Average Joe]

Money would be pretty helpful in terms of bills and being able to quit your job, having that much money could let you and your family live easier, give money to good causes, help people out, go on holidays. But then think of actors like Robin Williams or the singer Chester Bennington, some would say they have fame and fortune but fortune never fixes mental illness. It may help but I'm sure if your suffering from poor mental health then you will soon find you still have other issues

 

[oneofthoseyoudontwan]

well yes, because i want a lot of things.

 

[SNOB]

Yes it would solve all of my problems immediately ... mostly because of all the drugs I could consume
