It doesn't change a person, it only amplifies their true self. Winning the lottery but failing to keep it is not a matter of luck, but because wealth comes too quickly, and cognition, identity, and ability do not upgrade in sync. Wealth, in essence, is the realization of cognition, a transition from low cognition to high cognition. When cognition cannot bear the weight of wealth, the system will trigger mean reversion, and money will flow away in various ways. True wealth that can be preserved has never been about "sudden riches", but a long-term process of accumulation and continuous evolution. When wealth and cognition grow together and increase gradually, only then can one truly become rich for a long time and keep it secure.
