Many thanks, Marilyn for the courteous artist input on this admirable beautiful oil painting that you shared. The colors, attitude texture of this work is rememincent of other fine British genre painters of the victorean era like Dante Gabriel Rossetti, William Hunt, or check out the exquisite The Brridesmaid by John Millais They were called collectively The English Dreamers -enjoy.

if you hit a big jackpot set aside some fun money.

ex) if you win 50M spend 1M-3M and invest the rest.

after you make that 1-3M back from your investments, then you can SLOWLY buy your fleet of cars/ gold watches over the years (if thats what your into, I'd rather buy gold bullions) and live off your investments and put more money into your portfolio.

Sounds like he should have invested in some life insurances to handle those final bills instead of leaving them for his family.

Thanks Marilyn, Most charming painting/pix, rendered by whom?

For those who husband theGOLDEN grain,

Alike to no such aureate EARTH are turn'd

As, buried once.Men want dug ip AGAIN.

How selfish could he be? He didn't even leave anything for his daughter. I don't feel sorry for him after all he enjoyed the money by himself.

The David Edwards saga is full of what not to do but yet many past and future jackpot winner will emulate at least one of his bad traits. Very sad that a trust never existed for his daughter.

My thoughts exactly. When l read of millionaires owning 7 houses, $5 mil worth of jewelry,12 cars- l just exhale.

I recall reading an article on Kevin Garnett a few years ago where he was showing off his diamond earrings- he called one set ,his Low Beams ..the larger set his High Beams ...okay Kevin, we get it.

It's amazing how anyone can spend that kind of money and not put enough away... no matter how much money you have you can't buy every car, house, jewerly etc.

I recall seeing him give a press conference on how his windfall is a Godsend and that he will not waste it on junk etc.

I also read where he burned through between $150 ,000- $200,000 in under 2 weeks on just himself the GF in Vegas.

I know it was his money, but l thought then now that it was a little excessive on just a trip for two.

It's really sad when I read/watch these tragic stories. Money has a way of unleashing materialism in winners that would make psychologists in Madison Avenue weep in envy. Annuities would be the best if the government didn't have such a big appetite for taxes.
