A southern China Mann won 219 millions Yuan which is equivalent to $29,392,922.00 and kept all bybhim himself without telling his wife and child for the fear that it will change their life and will not make them not to work again. And he gave 5 millions yuan to charity home. And contemplating what to do with the remaining amount. He said, "I didn't tell my wife and child, for the fear that they would be too complacent and would not work or hard work in the future".
What do say about this kind of man?
Man Keeps Whopping N13 Billion in Lottery Winnings from His Family: “I Didn’t Tell My Wife and Child” At first his reasoning is somehow reasonable but in deeper thought, an idea of the man having deeper reason behind what he is stating is very possible. I can say his reasoning is somehow full of loop holes and crap.
As a father, his responsibility is to secure his family of their needs. Aside from commodities, the family needs reassurance, meaning father is responsible of securing his family's mental stability towards what will happen in the next few days. And hiding his new-found wealth doesn't solve that.
What comes in my mind is that, the father has some issues that he is hiding. It is possible that he has another woman, vices or something that needs huge amount of money to maintain and he wanted to not let his wife to learn of his financial capabilities to avoid confrontation about where the money goes.
Only he knows the truth, and I think the reason he doesn't want to share and also doesn't want his wife and kids to know about big wins is, because in the end the winning money will still be used.
And maybe they are afraid of wasting money on unimportant things or spending it in the wrong way because they know the bad nature of their children and wives, so keeping it a secret is the best option. Dan will continue to use them when needed and for the long haul because he knows he has a long way to go in life and that is what he is worried about.
and he does a deed that I think no one else does, and I judge this in my opinion he is a good person and has good intentions for his family.
True the man only knows why he said that but we are here to discuss if it's fair or not. And I say it is not fair for the family to not know their wealth. His reasons is full of fault, because we all know richer people work way more hours than ordinary employee to ensure that their wealth will not diminish.
