I would have gotten a different lawyer from the moment he told me don't swindle it!! First off you can't swindle or steal your OWN MONEY!! Secondly Mr. Lawyer your job is to help me KEEP MY MONEY!! You should be finding me tax breaks and ways to hold on to MY MONEY and not give it away to the Gov't!!! It's not the Gov'ts money to begin with they don't deserve any more!!! It's like the lawyer is saying don't forget to pay your fair share now that your rich...SPREAD THE WEALTH! NO THANK YOU! The g... [ More ]

Must be nice to win the big one. Too bad he had to do the media thing. His face is on the front page of the NY newspapers and I can just imagine all the relatives and old friends that will come out of the woodwork.

I agree.

So far he acted very unspoiled and very wise.

1) Took his time to claim prize.

2) Hired a top notch lawyer.

3) Set up trust

4) Quit job quickly.

5) Only talked to press 5 Minutes and left.

The last bit of advice from his lawyer: Don't talk to the media.

Mr. Boyce's five minutes in front of cameras, and disappearing act thereafter, was befitting of Houdini. He did his lawyer proud.

somethings wrong he my be here illegaly but working .....well in any case he has millions now and his whole life is about to change ..................too much money can spoil you a lot................

For transparency's sake, and publicity's, too, the New York State Lottery requires its big jackpot winners to step up before the cameras, and flash that giant cardboard check.

But many winners these days, with prizes surpassing nine figures, would rather not show their faces on television or in print, said Jennifer Givner, a spokeswoman for the state lottery. And so, when that moment in the limelight comes, the winners come and go as quickly as they can, leaving no time for them to elucidate... [ More ]
