A lottery winner from Béarn, who received 5.6 million euros in 2007, is now in a difficult financial situation, with debts of 150,000 euros.
After buying houses for his parents and investing in a business, the 150,000 euro debts turned his life into a financial nightmare, according to capital.fr.
Often, we daydream about what we would do if we won a large sum in the lottery. Some would invest in luxurious vacations, others would start their own businesses, while others would solve serious financial problems.
Such a dream became a reality for a man from Béarn on April 4, 2007. After winning 5.6 million euros, his life changed completely.
"It completely changed my life. I was in a desperate situation; my parents were about to be evicted because the owner was selling everything and I needed 200,000 euros. I had incredible luck: I won the lottery. I bought a house for my parents and one next to it for myself. I kept working and then got into business," he recounted.
With 5.6 million euros in his pocket, the man thought the future was secure.
"I thought that if I buy two houses, I am more than prepared for the future," he said, but reality was to prove him wrong. After a few years, he found himself with a huge debt of 150,000 euros and two mortgaged houses.
