Not everybody wants to be "private airplane/private island" rich.

Sounds like these two just want to be comfortable and spend more time with their families.

The last time there was one of those huge lotteries there was a long article looking at the results of previous winners.

The one’s that spent big were soon divorced, destitute or dead. I recall one couple divorced and they both ended up buying huge homes and all the toys.

They both were found dead in their respective homes. One of them wasn’t noticed missing by anyone for months. Have all that money but NOBODY cares about you.

The success stories were the older couples that bought a reliable Buick and new carpets for the house. Donate millions to the local charity they help out at, and set aside education trust funds for their kids or grandkids.
