I dunno, it makes me happy to see 'normal' people get nice things. Makes me think of Louis Armstrong and his good old 'Wonderful World'.

Nail your colours to the mast that all may look upon them and know who you are.
It takes a big man to cry...and an even bigger man to laugh at that man.

lol what on earth are you on about Mr PopOriginally Posted by *Col*
Sure is a great story, he'll never hear the end of it now
To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and to endure the betrayal of false friends. To appreciate beauty; to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition; to know that even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded

I hope it works out well for them. For many people, sudden windfalls like that completely fuck up their lives. I know of several families torn apart by squabbles over lottery winnings.
My bro-in-law won $200k on the Spinny Wheel Thingo (dunno what it's called - I never buy Lotto tickets, so I'm miles ahead of most people who do contribute to this voluntary tax scheme). Anyway, he stuck the money in the bank, and thought, "This'll be kewl, looking at my new huge bank balance!" He forgot about the revolving credit thing, and when he looked at the balance, the $200k had been sucked into the mortgage.
... and that's what I think.
Or summat.
Or maybe not...
Dunno really....

He owed $200k (or more) on his mortgage. He won @200k on Lotto. This paid off (part of? most of?) his mortgage. How is this a bad thing?...Anyway, he stuck the money in the bank, and thought, "This'll be kewl, looking at my new huge bank balance!"

Shit, 200K would only make a small dent on my fricken mortgage. Not that I would mind at all
