Re: My Webmaster won $70 million in Powerball lottery - space-time - 03-26-2012 if I were him, I wouldn't tell anyone, not even wife. I would let her clip coupons and buy stuff on sale, I would let the kids struggle to get good grades to get into college and when we retire and kids are out of college, I would split the money 40% each kid and 20% left for us and travel around the world to see all the places I couldn't see before. Until then, keep it all secret, don't tell anyone. Now that's a problem I wish I had ![]() Re: My Webmaster won $70 million in Powerball lottery - clay - 03-26-2012 space-time wrote: you mean, you wouldn't even be a little tempted to want to quit your job or do fun traveling now, while you're young and can fully enjoy it? Re: My Webmaster won $70 million in Powerball lottery - space-time - 03-26-2012 I would be tempted, for sure, but I would try to resist the urge as much as possible.

For starters, you would be nut-less because she will kick yours off. Why would you want to hide that from your family? I could see trying to keep it from everyone else, but not my wife. And that's not because of the nut thing I mentioned, I would want to tell.

I don't get this Puritannical "work is good for you" stuff AT ALL.

I never knew anyone who won the lottery, so my reaction was just one of interest. Haters gonna hate, I guess. To date, my Web designer hasn't returned my calls or e-mails since last week. Hmmm..... Huh? I think I made it beyond clear I was not questioning why you posted this. |
