Some people can't handle money very well. I am reminded of a case in Los Angeles about 25 years ago. A black gangsta in one of the Blood sets, a former prison inmate, sent to the slam for dealing dope, was out of prison on parole, living in South Central. He bought a couple of lottery tickets, became lucky and won several million $$$$$. Within a year, he was back dealing dope, was again arrested and sent back to San Quentin.

Even though he'd won all that money, blown much of it , he just could not stay our of "the Life."

FWIW.
