Powerball!

Things are going well for the woman who won $188 million last February from Powerball. As usual the Daily Mail has all the deets and pictures:

@Youdon’tsay I have my doubts. I read an article about the winner of an earlier Powerball who is doing wonderful things for the arts and he had very good advice about keeping a low profile and the number of scams and requests that result from having your name out there.

Listening to their local, small town lawyer will likely be proven to be a mistake. I didn’t see them on the Today show or on 20/20 but if the lawyer was there with them, that is just ridiculous. And with the actual ticket?! Good grief.

I read that the TN couple rcvd a “small” check for several million already and wil receive the much larger check in 10 days. Hoping that gives them time to line up appropriate advisors.

wonder how many people are camped out on their street by now…

You can’t fix stupid, but you can make it really, really rich.
