And no, I'm not talking about the genetic lottery that Ben has clearly won. :p
I'm talkin' about this guy:
The other day this mouth-breather named Chris Shaw won the $258 million jackpot. Dude had $26.00 total in his bank account when he won. Now, I know I'm supposed to be happy for the guy but I'm not. Why? Because- you just know that like the majority of lottery winners who have no fiscal discipline, he will piss through his money in 5 years and be broke as a joke living back in a trailer wondering where it all went.
In a way I do feel for him though... he's about to have scores of "friends" come out of the woodwork wanting favors. Unless he's smart (and judging by the looks of things, he isn't) he'll disappear for a while with his girlfriend and 2 kids, and not tell anyone where he is or mention that he won the lottery. Thoughts? |

I found it funny when people got mad at a felon (ex-con) winning the lottery.
People being jealous! |

You can't criticize him unless you win the lottery, too!

haha... of course! not only do I wish that I won that money, but I know it wouldn't go to waste on Nascar events and tree stands like it probably will for that guy! :D |

haha... It's funny, as you're holding that ticket you think sometimes, "I got the winner baby! Someone's gotta get it... why not me?" Then you see at the bottom of the ticket where it says "odds of winning are 1 in 83,000,000" and come back to reality. |

| i play more often than i'd like to admit. $10 every now and then though doesn't hurt. i spend more per day on smokes. |

| i play the powerball occasionally if the jackpot gets near 200 mil. i'm way, way more prone to invest cash into poker though. |
