The Hidden Struggles of Instant Success

Sudden wealth can be a dream come true for many individuals.

Whether it be winning the lottery, receiving a large inheritance, or signing a lucrative contract, the influx of money can drastically change someone's life in an instant.

However, what many people may not realize is that sudden wealth can also be isolating.

Additionally, sudden wealth can also bring about feelings of guilt and shame. The individual may feel guilty for their newfound prosperity, especially if those around them are not as fortunate.

They may also feel ashamed for struggling to adjust to their new lifestyle, as society often expects those who come into money to be instantly happy and fulfilled.
