Lottery winner ties the knot once again
Florida Lottery: Lottery winner ties the knot once again
Robert Swofford Jr., winner of a $60 million Florida Lotto jackpot, re-married his first wife, after his second wife dumped him when he won the big prize. Swofford's second wife, Ann, filed for divorce after he hit the jackpot in November. She walked away with more than $5 million of Swofford's $34.7 million lump-sum payout. Now Ann's sister, Mary Lackey, is suing Swofford for child support. Swofford fathered children by both women in 1993 while still married to his first wife, Sharon. Swofford was living with Sharon Swofford when he bought the winning ticket, though he referred to her then as his "landlord." The two retied the knot Feb. 20.

Winning a lottery doesn't make a foolish person smarter. * What happens most *
* will most likely happen again *

all I can do is just shake my head. Seems to me, he could have used some of that money for a good counselor.
It only takes a dollar and a dream! ..no intelligence required

I think it's time a person living on minimum wage got the jackpot.
It must happen at least once in a while.
