I am happy for the lotto winners...
they seem like hard working humble people. That being said, I do hope they get financial planners.

4. Yes... just wait until they get their meat hooks into that cash... good
for them.... I like to see hard working people get a break LEGALLY as opposed to some nobid activities of late.... lobbying.... port sales.... etc, etc.

6. nothing harder, nastier, or bloodier than a slaughterhouse
and those folks were also open to a lot of on the job injuries. It's a terrible place to work.

I'm absolutely delighted that they won!

9. This would make a good poll question at DU
If you won the lottery, do you a) accept the full amount in installments, or b) take the lesser lump sum?

The correct answer, of course, is "b." Time value of money and all that.
