You know what....he shouldn't burn his bridges......he's going to need his old reputation for the new job he's going to need later. The contacts alone in the building are priceless he could have doubled his money in no time. Now this is going to turn out really...really...really bad. Although I could be wrong......
.....yeah right

" Yay another "moron" wins the lottery. You can tell he is not very competent at all, and will be bankrupt and begging for his job back in a few years or less." Sir Brad
There is so much bitterness on this board. "I didn't win so this guy must be an idiot." Why is everyone judging this man as if he was unemployed or homeless and suddenly won some money? He had a very good job before he won the lottery. He's single and owns a house in Brooklyn, so he could have invested his money wisely for years. I don't understand all the comments, since I've gambled in Vegas, Paradise Island, Freeport, Aruba, St Martin, Puerto Rico and other places, and I wasn't frivolous with my money. I was on vacation. Maybe he's just having fun! I am not bitter, I just calls it as I sees it.

He's not stinking, filthy rich, but definitely very comfortable! I suppose he could make a lot of stupid investments, get into a lot of debt, and then he'd have to sell his annuity, but nothing I'm reading indicates he's going to do any of these things! A lot of men marry younger women and end up settling down & having families. The modeling business is very tough and competitive. Maybe she found her Prince Charming. You never know.

I see the guy taking out loans agianst his annuity and getting into trouble... We'll find out in a couple years... With odds like 1 in 175,711,536 how can I lose?!
You can't predict random.

A lot of men marry younger women and end up settling down & having families. The modeling business is very tough and competitive. Maybe she found her Prince Charming. You never know. Well, ya know JP. I viewed one of her websites on which a bunch of her friends were pictured, and it seemed the general talk was about heavy metal, and purple haze and partying. And that particular website left me with a bad IMPRESS. I couldn't help but seeing a middle aged man walking into this kind of environment trying to Impress a younger crowd, and even dressing and acting the part! So, now he even goes out and buys a Candie apple Red Cadillac. Neck of the woods I'm from, you might as well dial 911. Then in one of the photo's he even throws up a kind of gangsta/playa Shrug! Street life is nowadays extremely dangerous! Of course, he's having a little fun, but the world is a different place now! it altogether caused me to question his judgment. I said the things in my posts based on my environment and work experience! Of course I could be totally wrong. I actually wish them the best, but something about the whole thing doesn't feel right. The young lady even looks a little STREET! I must admit I've never been to new York, so I don't know who controls what! I like the way you take an opposing view and then build an argument for it. Makes the board interesting. I better stop, cause I'm supposed to talk lottery, and I've digressed way too much. They may very well get hitched tho'.

Impressive how fast money can change people.
I hope he has his fun, but gets smart before he burns up all his money. Yeah!

Colthmn, I agree that the lady looks a little "street" but that means she's smart too. She's using what she's got while she's got it. I don't see any inappropriate pictures on her site. After all, she's a model. What I don't get about men is that most of them get up everyday and go to their boring jobs and come home to their boring lives & flop in front of the TV before hitting the pillow. Then they dream of living on the wild side, gambling all night and sitting in a hot tub with a sexy model. Next they knock someone who actually decides to act out that fantasy.

He has every right to do what's he's doing. We (at LP) just think that having won so much money, he needs to be careful to not blow a chance of a lifetime and wind up like so many other winners that in just a few years, all their money is gone and they wind up homeless.
P.S. There is also a little bit of healthy jealously and envy. "WE WANT NOTHING LESS THAN A JACKPOT"
