“Charlie and the Chocolate Factory” comes to mind.

First rule if you win (which this man immediately violated): Don't tell ANYONE, ESPECIALLY not your "friends."

That all comes in time, if at all with most people.

Unless he’s debt free, that should be a priority. There’s no guarantee that money will be kept, but at least he would be unencumbered.

I find money fairly often but I never spend it on lottery tickets. Maybe I should change?

I read somewhere that gambling and games of chance cheapen life by mocking hard work, and tend to agree. Bust your ass for forty years, socking it away, and some loser wins the powerball.

Congrats on his good fortune. I hope he is careful with the money. Most people would be surprised how easy it is to blow a million bucks.

He hasn’t played the lottery in 10 years, and only did so with unexpected unearned money. Maybe he’ll actually handle his winnings wisely.

I just saw this. How lucky can you get. First finding the 20 spot and able to buy lottery tickets and then win a million. Lucky day for him.

I think that was the $20 that I lost near SFO. Do I have a claim on the $1 million?

I’d spend it on women and partying.

The rest I’d just waste.
