Yeah lives not far from where I grew up. According to my relatives still in the area. The money went completely to his head swelled his sense of self importance to an astronomical level. He took the one time lump sum rather then the yearly payment. He went to every strip joint in Cabell, Putnam & Kanawha counties, left lavish tips and got robbed of $500k at one. He also couldn’t stay out of the news - local TV, radio etc. He constantly sought them out and gave his two cents on every topic. This behavior painted a huge bulls eye on his back & his family’s back and it all ended in tragic consequences. The worst was what happened to his granddaughter, he showered her with money. She was too young to handle it and to make a long sad story short. She ended up running with the wrong crowd and died of a drug overdose. Some say she was killed over a bad drug deal.
He ended up divorced, his kids all divorced, and went from a respectable businessman to local laughingstock.
All I want to do is load up a tablet with all of western classic literature and sit on a beach.
He probably wasn’t the type of guy who was open for honest guidance.
