I saw the news on TikTok as well and I told the guy to watch his back always, many other gamblers started following him around.

The lesson of the day

It's safer to gamble online and make money, nobody will know how much you made and you will live among your people with no problem, in this guy's case he is now a target, there is so much insecurity in that country.

This is why privacy concern is very important when it's about personal thing including money, most people can't accept if there's a person who lucky to get a huge amount money or richer than them, they will do anything in order to kill you or rob your money.

However congratulations for that's Nigerian man who won $51,000 from a dollar, it's not easy to achieve and I believe he will never forget with his stories.
The man had already exposed himself on the bet he won for the fact that he uses a betting shop instead of betting online which is done anonymous had revealed his indentity, if he had won the bet through the internet that would have been the best, having exposed himself now he will be forced to part or give out part of the money to friends, relatives, religious leaders who would told him that it's was their prayers that enables him to win such a huge amount of money, the best bet for him now is to relocate to another place or town to avoid being robbed or kidnapped which is very rampant in Nigeria.

Nothing lasts forever
Last week, on the 14th of October, 2022, A Nigerian Man used 800 naira (which is equivalent to $1.072 in today's NGN/DOLLAR exchange rate) to bet on sports...

He later won a whopping 38,317,137 Nigerian naira (which is equivalent to $51,363.454 in today's NGN/DOLLAR exchange rate).

         ....How luckier can one get?😁😁😁

Below is a quote of the entire article

Quote
An unidentified man has become a multi-millionaire after placing a bet on sports betting site with only N800.

The man, who instantly became a celebrity in a viral video, was seen with neigbhours trooping to the betting centre to confirm his N38million win after words spread out.

The system screen showed the man placed the multiple bet on Friday, October 14, 2022 with N800 only and won N38,317,130.00

After confirming his win, the man headed straight to the mosque to perform ‘Salat’ (daily obligatory prayer for Muslims). The crowd that had gathered to confirm his win followed him to the mosque, kept hailing him even as he ignored them and carried on with ablution for his prayers.


You mentioned that the equivalent amount of Niara in USD was $51k then how did he become a mutli-millionaire.
Was it like this that he became a multi-millionaire in Niaras ?
51k is definitely a great amount of price to be won but still not so much that can change one's life.
Ofcourse it can help him do some great stuff but he will have to invest it inorder to conserve the amount otherwise it won't last long.

A wonderful result and an impressive coefficient allowed the player to get a decent win, especially for Nigeria, where the average salary is ~ $ 170, this can save a person 25 years of life, I hope he uses it to good use.

So the financial management factor is very important...
Sudden money can be slippery and easily lost, you don't get rich by getting more money only but also by financial management. There is the tendency to squander money gotten easily. If you win big either from gambling or lottery, it is important not to be too quick to spend the money, so you don't start squandering the money even before you notice it.

-   What you said is true dude, many people have won and become millionaires because of gambling, and later they also became poor, the

luxurious life they had was short-lived. Due to the lack of proper management of their won money.

So you should be careful and wise with the people you trust if you suddenly become a millionaire because of a gamble.
Actually we must have skills for financial management for the future, so whatever has been gained from jackpots and profits from trading will be added to the main finance, but lifestyle changes and the luxury factor when they win thousands and millions of dollars in gambling will have an impact on wastage finance for spending expensive goods and increasing high bet because of greed, so the financial management factor is very important and I have applied it from every win on gambling and trading profits will be added to the main finance, so I will not increase bets and keep betting on small bets.

He should keep it private or request the betting site to not show his face or post his information especially if coming from a poor family and neighborhood, he can give a portion of his earnings to friends, relatives, or those who are in needy but in a discreet way, by showing his earnings, he will put himself in trouble and his family and people will say bad words to him when he declines to give them a portion of his winning and he will be a subject of talks whenever they see him, this is the bad part of showing himself after he won a big amount.
Word will still get out even if he starts sharing his win to immediate family in a discreet way. I'm pretty sure most people who became instant millionaires but with no financial education will commit the mistake of spending on a lot of things. That lifestyle change will be noticed quickly by neighbors and friends.

NOW, HERE IS MY REASON FOR MAKING THIS THREAD..
The book of proverbs(from the Bible) says "A prudent(wise) man knows when to keep his mouth shut and when to speak"

Don't you all think that in the course of we trying to show off this kind of winnings to friends, families, colleagues etc, we end up drawing known and unknown enemies to ourselves?

The heart of man is desperately wicked, Man destroy and kill his fellow man out of envy and jealousy, they celebrate your success with you in your front, but when you are not there, they device means to bring you down, or even kill you.

I think people should learn to keep their success stories away from physical people, because as they joy and praise you physically, secretly, they might not be as much happy as they appear physically.

If I am eager to share my success story, I prefer to do it online where no body knows me In person, like this forum, doing this offline with family, friends, colleagues, etc.. I think is too risky.

What is or are your opinion(s) on this matter?

Congrats to the winner.

I also read this story and remember, there are some successes that can't be hidden such as this very win because even if you try to hide it, the cashier if not controlled might get blown up.

It's true there are friends who celebrate you in your presence and stab you at your back even without you doing no wrong to them.
The world is evil and all we need to do is to keep doing good while trusting God and always be careful while showing off our winnings to motivate others

You are right, this is always risky. The world is full of jealousy, envy and selfishness. I only share my success story with my close, trusted friend group and those who I see as being valuable in my life. Why? Well, because I'm not looking to be popular. I'm looking to build quality relationships with people who are on the same page as me, who will support me and vice versa. Also, I don't want people around me who are going to be jealous of my success or try to pull me down because they aren't achieving what I am.

Envy and jealousy is part of the gambling experience, even in land base casino, you will hear someone in the back if you are playing slot machine and you win big that they wish if was them in that place because they were just playing it a couple of minutes ago before you take that sit.

I'm not saying that everyone is like this, but there are many people who cannot handle your success and will try to take advantage of you.

Everyone will take advantage of everyone specially if it is a free ride. So if someone hear that you win big, they will be at your doorstep the next day begging for free money.

Can't imagine how this would be celebrated if he happen to bet more than that amount?

1 dollars to 51 thousands? that is too much luck in his side,  and wondering how many of His countryman have won the same path in sports betting.

Imagine his relatives start popping out of nowhere for donations and investments.
I can relate in this mate, I have a friend that won a good amount in Local lottery and after that? relatives from every part comes to claim being related to him lol.

Dang, how did it pan out?

This is a lesson for all of us that if we get any luck, we don't need to tell many people and just tell people who are really close to us. This is very important because we do not know who will hear the news and we also do not know who will be happy or vice versa. We must be smart to keep it a secret from others so that it will not affect us badly.
actually no need to tell anyone aside from your immediate family because people change because of money.

they can be as devil or greed once saw a large amount of Money , knowing their place? I am afraid of what he can be if people tries to get his winning.

No one knows the human heart and this is what we must avoid. If we want to celebrate this good thing, we can do it with the people closest to us without provoking the curiosity of others. We do not have to share all the good things we get with many people.
But like a person it is?  I believe that he wanted to be famous because this is once in a lifetime happening for the people like Him.

This kind of news will surely inspire many people but I will not use it to share with others since I might be liable in case they become addicted and lose huge money due to gambling. I believe it’s better to share only this kind of news to gambling community and not to families and friends that still not exposed on gambling.

This huge bet is very rare and hard to hit. It will take your life’s luck just to hit this kind of huge win out of a $ bet. Good for him that he choose to bet at that particular time.

The reason why he could not keep the winning secret could be that he didn't know the bet will play, he must have already discussed with his friends when he made the bet and few games won. When it was remaining few matches to win overall, they were all aware. There is no how to blank them when the winning actually came.
That is why it is good to play online and be anonymous if possible. If it was online, he would only tell someone he wants.

He should use some amount and settle his friends around and plan to relocate from the city for some safety reasons.

[Nope]No hype delivers more than hope
It looks like it's a hoax news,

It's real, this is a twitter post of how this story started to get picked up in several news media.

Well, I think it's a reflex celebration even if you have a strong stance on privacy. Imagining that $51k is still big money for 3rd country residents, with such a surprise no one will be able to resist the urge to celebrate with even just the people around.

I read the news but I cant find the full details of the betslip. I can only see that his initial winning is not fully $50k because he received a bonus added to his total winning. Just curious as it is the first time I see such a big bonus (almost half of the actual win), sounds like 50% extra winning from his multibet. Is there any crypto bookie that offer such bonus?

What a great win with him, and how lucky he is with his results. What multiplier did he do, or is it a parlay or something?

If that were to happen to me, it’s going to be something that I wouldn’t brag about because I agree with the members that I’ve posted before me that it would invite people that necessarily didn’t know I exist or something like that. They are after like a residual of the money that I’ve gotten and beg for it or something.
