Here comes family and friends!

I wouldn’t want to be rich, you have to get that big house, the big car, the big boat, the big jet, the polo ponies; work, work, work.

Got rid of the brother, now how about her mother?

Money can’t buy happiness, but it can can lease or rent some.

Okay, you want to be happy? Resolve all this? 1. Kill wife (cleverly, you have to get away with it), 2. Get a triple espresso and a doughnut.

Doesn’t change brother’s profile, just his bank account.. Now he can do even more of his usual.

Managing $60M is a job, but maybe he can hire someone to do it now.

Money isn’t the answer to happiness!

Depending on the state and how the lottery is paid out (Yearly or monthly deposits or all at once) , that would turn out to be somewhere between $20 to $30 million. I’ll gladly take it.

If I won the lottery I would really enjoy giving a lot of it way. And it would only be to organizations where it would have a real impact. Look, I love my alma mater but a $5 million donation to a university with a $30 billion endowment doesn’t mean much.

Money is not important to me. I have all I’ll ever need. Family is more valuable…til they ask for a loan. lol

And now he won’t show his face around there.

The famous French theater and film director, Jean-Louis Barrault, used to urge his artists to work “vite et mauvais”— “quickly and badly!” He wanted them to avoid self-editing and overthinking.

I think many people’s happiest memories were during a time when they had little money. But of course, that’s when they still had their youth. Money does help blunt the effects of aging…somewhat…

That’s why I always try to be nice to everybody…cuz, ya never know!

Good. With $60 million (probably about $15 million after the cash payment deduction and taxes), the brother shouldn’t be around asking for a handout. Well, for about 2 years, anyhow.
