Anyone who wins a lottery(mainly the poor) has probably "never had access to this large amount of money". I agree if she is the winner, she is overwhelmed, but to use terms like, "lack of common sense" and "can't fix stupid" is rude!! Just wonder what STATE OF MIND would you be in if you won 200 million????
Well I don't think even 99.9 % of people (from all walks of life) would act like her and saying she lacks even a small degree of common sense is fair (and is not based on her economic status). She tells the press to leave her alone, then she starts talking to them again. The various contradictions, behavior, and crazy one liners (most recently telling her daugher not to look for the ticket) show that there is something wrong with her and yes, people who are delusional lack common sense. And most children know you do not wear hats inside and dress in that manner, let alone at a press conference. I think it is doubtful at this point that she ever had the ticket so something else on a serious level is happening to her. Did a "real win" trigger this complete lack of common sense and her being "overwhelmed" ? I think it is unlikely.

Pick4m..........There are things in a report that lead a person to believe to be true or false based on the information at hand. She could have been around other family members/close friends who have had/won money in the past. The article did not say and I do not assume anything.....She DOES lack common sense and has now "MISPLACED THE TICKET" ????....lets take a look at the definition of the word stupid shall we?..
Stupid-
Looks like she fits into that definition to me..Would you have preferred the word "Gormless" instead ?.I have no problem calling a duck a duck. If you do not care for it ? oh well that's your personal demon to deal with.....The stories just keep getting better with this "alleged" winner as the days go by.
As far as how I would react ? With over abundance of excitement, ecstatic..but knowing the only way to collect is having the winning ticket in my possession ?? I would make sure that ticket was in my possession 24/7 til I could get it to a safety deposit box in my financial institution........Best of luck to you in the near future, hope you win soon

She may have the bag ??? I am sure that could come in handy
Ok, I must admit that today I went to her McDonald's and found the ticket....and it was the winning ticket! She had taped it to the bottom of a jar of the Big Mac special sauce. So I took it home but then my cat ate it. She threw it up and I just as I got it pieced back together, a huge crow came flying through the window and flew away with the ticket. I chased the crow for miles in my car and when it landed, I wrestled the ticket away from its' beak. But then, a big green Pterodactyl swooped down and I had to let go of the ticket. The Pterodactyl shouted as he flew away... he was using the money to pay a lab to create a female Pterodactyl from DNA in a mosquito trapped in piece of resin.
