The town in FL they say the winning ticket was bought at, looks like a retiree trailer park mecca a ways outside of Tampa.


Yep, that describes Zephyrhills fairly accurately.

I think I have a good chance with the raffle at the Chinese Restaurant.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Until he goes broke again.

Well he will have a paid-off home at least.

Besides that strikes me as a wise use of lottery winnings :hmm: what makes you so sure he will go broke again?

Probably too old for that. The heirs will do it instead.

He has a Hispanic name and has been broke once, seems a pretty safe bet to me.

His past history of going broke?

Past behavior predicts future behavior.  Why do you people think employers run backround checks? :sleep:

The point was that it isn't very hard to see that a person who has gone broke before might end up broke again now that they've been given more money than they could have ever dreamed of having.

I would think having a bunch of money would make it less likely he would go broke.
