A woman who won $6 million in a state lottery reveals the good, the bad, and the ugly about netting millions of dollars

i'm not telling anybody

She did absolutely right on ALL ACCOUNTS. Smart woman and I wish her the best.



It still fukks me up the story of the young breh in his early 20’s who won like 150K and went back to his old hood and tried to be generous and buy toys for neighborhood kids and food for struggling families and muthafukkas burst into his house and murdered him IN FRONT of his kids.


Thats part of the reason why i’d do EXACTLY what this woman did, i’m leaving the state and more than likely the country. Buying my mother a house and car. Setting up a college fund for my daughter. Breaking off my siblings a ONE TIME payment and my two best friends a smaller ONE TIME payment and then i’m going ghost. Only way someone would be able to reach me is through email. And most of that shyt i’d send to spam.

no situational awareness

Yea none the less that’s not the job of you and me.

This I gotta go back and give back is the most dumbest thing ever.

I don’t even like my mom doing for the Caribbean

There’s a reason why Jamaicans collect their winnings in a costume.

I feel like you should sit and not spend a dime for 6 months to a year…

*edit*

Her friend started it. Started telling people she won 30K then it went from there once family found out.

She was smart though she split before the wolves could get to her

Yup imagine winning the lottery on a Caribbean island. Ain’t no states to run to muthafukass

Didn't name the state but gave her full legal name?

One of the crazy things about when folks get money is how folks who they don't even really rock with come out the woodworks begging. Like who does that?

If someone I don't even really talk to won some money, I wouldn't play myself by all of a sudden trying to be their friend. Where they do that at?

you get over the initial dopamine high of winning millions of dollars and the urge to get stupid with it

Facts and I wouldn’t even do it someone I talk to either. I think it’s corny to think someone who is successful has to help you.

if your going to be generous.

You take whatever percentage you’re going to “gift” people. Set them up with annuity’s. And let them know this ain’t no gravy train. Manage that accordingly.

Depending on who you are people already know if they can or can not use you.

You would move to another Parish or just go to another Caribbean island.
