There are a number of “lottery winner” houses around here. Won the lottery, started building a huge addition to their homes, blew it all in several months. Now you can pass by these houses — unpainted plywood sides, piles of gravel and stones in the back yard for 10-15 years, water runoff gouging out the back yard.
The couple who won 1/3 of that huge powerball jackpot just claimed their prize. They are doing everything right. I don’t think California allows trusts to claim a prize.
They moved out of their house the day before they claimed the ticket and have disappeared.
If I ever win, my claim is going to have so many layered entities claiming the ticket no media person will find out who won.
3,000,000 really isn’t that much.
After taxes he probably brings home 2,000,000.
New cars for the family, a new dream house, huge vacation and it’a all gone.
