Only one per election, thank you.
Was shocked by this, UNTIL went to pictures’ understanding came quickly.
No doubt insane:
'Instead, Ramsey got a cashier's check from Wells Fargo for $302,466 and immediately cashed it at an Amscot store. Amscot charged him more than $14,000 in fees.'
He had a birth certificate.
But people sure do suck. They may be lazy but they’ll run like the wind to take advantage of a sick old man.
Our tax dollars at work ...
It looks like they took 25% out for taxes, which might come close to covering it for the feds (no state income tax in Florida), but the IRS will still be looking for the rest of it in April.
Judge Lauren Laughlin, who monitors Ramsey's guardianship, sees another problem: Why was there nothing to keep the Florida Lottery from handing over thousands of dollars to someone that a court found incapable of caring for himself?
"You clearly can't be giving this kind of money to people who have had the right to manage their own financial affairs removed,"
Funny, the judge is worried about the state's responsibility in paying the money out, but has no concern when they take even more in ticket sales to people like Ramsey.
All I noticed is how quickly the family leeches came out of the woodwork to be there for him as soon as they heard he won the cash...
I had a friend who’s mom won one of the first BIG Texas Lottery jackpots...At the time he and I were in the reserves together, and he had his one ChemLawn franchises and that was his source of income...
When I heard his mom won, we both went over there and told her to get out of town...Lay low, and get a lawyer...Disconnect your phone as well...Have all communications done through the lawyer...
Well, she literally went out of town, and later we heard she flat went halfway around the world after securing the payout after we all got back from Austin...
She went to stay at the Hilton in the Maldive islands...hehehe, tough duty, but I think she could afford it...
When all was said and done, and the usual family, both immediate and distant, leeches came out to her place to find her...She had already given the house to my friend, and he still for at least two more years did his ChemLawn thing, not ever asking or expecting anything from his mom...
It just goes to show that virtue, even when it comes to family successes and failures is vacant these days...And my frind still lives in that house his mom used to live in...He learned how to be humble and appreciative of her success...And I believe it will pay off later on down the road...And even then he feels he doesn’t deserve anything but his mom’s love and attention to this day...
And we wonder what they do with 'FREE MONEY' from taxpayers?!
Fool and his money are soon parted. Man, if I won 500 a week......
If Obama had an Uncle (who wasn’t here illegally)....
TNB
OMG you made me laugh really hard!
The Lottery is an ignorance tax
“You clearly can’t be giving this kind of money to people who have had the right to manage their own financial affairs removed”
-Sums up how liberals feel about the working class
Funny how the relatives who could not take this man in and care for him suddenly showed up when he could do something for THEM.
>> Lottery winner’s lifetime of money gone in weeks,
Somebody in Congress?
What a loser. The gubmint handout makes me sick.
The poor you will always have with you, but you will not always have me.
