Did you read the article?
“Whittaker had the very best of intentions: He truly wanted to share his good fortune and help people.
“I wanted to build churches,” he said. “I wanted to get people food that didn’t have food. I wanted to provide clothing for children that needed clothing.”
Within months, Whittaker was making good on his promise. He handed over $15 million for the construction of two churches alone.”
He gave away many more millions (over $50 million) as the years went by.
From the article it appears that he is no saint, but if people are going to judge him then at least read the article first.
Yes the lottery was worth 315 million. If you take the money up front and pay taxes like he did, you get a check for about 104 million. he did contribute 15 million to build two churches.
And this donation was suppose to help him how?
