Has anyone's active household or played households won the lottery before?

I did! My Sim was living with her husband. They were poor and he was the only one working because she had to stay home with their newborn baby. The husband dies (in a fire caused by the dryer). My Sim is devastated, she must raise a child alone with no money.
The next day, she wins the lottery!

She moved in a huge house and started throwing parties and going out with her new rich friends. She hired a butler, a nanny and a gardener.

To be honest, it was fun for a while, then I got bored and stopped playing them. It is more fun when my Sims are struggling.
