I know what you mean since birthday time can be either a blessing or a curse.

We had someone win the lottery near me last year. first thing they did was drop contact with all their neighbors and move away... which I am not sure I would blame them for.

I do not blame some lottery winners if they leave their cities after winning the lottery since they are going to have many people with hard luck stories coming to them for handouts.
