We have seen increasing numbers of people with a cluster of issues and symptoms associated with the stress and anxiety of sudden success or wealth. We have coined the term "Sudden Wealth Syndrome¹" to describe their shared psychological issues.

 

我们见过很多人在突然获得成功或得到巨额财富时因为压力和紧张情绪而导致的一系列症状。他们共有的这种心理状态叫做“暴富综合征”。

 

The "wealth" part of sudden wealth syndrome has normally been associated with the riches accumulated from dot-com IPOs and the rapid rise of the Nasdaq stock market in the late 90s. However, it also applies to lottery² winners, estate heirs, and people whose get-rich-quick schemes actually worked.

 

他们“暴富”的来源在上世纪90年代后期通常指网络概念股狂潮阶段以及纳斯达克股市狂飙时期。同时，“暴富”的来源也可以指彩票得主，地产继承人以及那些迅速发财计划进行顺利的人。
