Lottery winner

Anyone see this article in the Hun today -- http://www.news.com.au/heraldsun/story/0,2...352-661,00.html

I just hope he donates a chunk to the club, even if its "not exactly his money".

Just thought if he's that much of a diehard supporter he might read this site and I thought I'd apply some pressure.

Its something I've thought about before and decided i'd have to make a sizeable donation if put in this position, but at the same time I often wonder if I'd actually go through with it.

I think I would.

a) i'm sure he sounds exactly like the type of person who would donate money away

and

B) he was bankrupt, which meant he had nothing, its not like he already had a couple of houses and this was icing.

FWIW i would donate some money, but probably not if i won 400K. thats not even enough to buy a house these days...

A few years ago I wrote an article on Demonland (when it was in Aimoo) about my big win at Keno at Wrest Point in the early 80's. I won $1,703.00 for an investment of $3.00 by picking 7 out of 8 numbers in one of my games. I used the numbers of eight Demons who played well the previous week (typically missing out on #25 Mark Jackson whose number didn't come up thereby costing me another 11 grand).

I reckon this bloke read my article and has been using my system. I'm going to sue him for the lot!

Good luck to him.

Good luck to him.

Though he sounds more like a Collingwood supporter.

The court ruled that the ticket belonged to the new wife - so it wasn't his money to give away anyway. I hope she invests it wisely - and doesn't let him get his hands on it as he doesn't have a great track record with money!

[e25 5]

Technically the money belongs to his new wife, so that by law the ex wife cannot touch it.

Doesn't mean he has no control over her or the money.

I'd be very surprised if that was the case.
