A lottery win can undeniably make your life easier in many ways, but it often comes with drawbacks too, as one man in the US has learnt.
The unidentified individual, who won a $1.35billion jackpot, is being sued by his family for breaking a promise to share his winnings.
The man bought his Mega Millions jackpot ticket in Lebanon, Maine, on January 13 last year.
It was the fourth largest lottery jackpot payout in US history, and the winner opted to receive a lump-sum of about $500million after taxes.
He made a number of promises to his family, including setting up a trust fund, that he has failed to follow through with, the lawsuit alleges.
