SIAP, but I just saw on ABC that the couple from Tennessee will keep working. She works in a dermatologists office and he works at a cleaning supply, or something like that, distribution company.
WTF did you buy a ticket?

Yeah they keep working until their boss or one client acts like an ass to them. Then they say...eff this I'm out.
 
That won't last. When their coworkers make them feel guilty by asking them for help they will quit.

The pressure they will be under to give every they know will be more than they can possibly imagine.

Even a subtle conversation about a coworkers financial problems will be a burden on them.

My advice would be to move to a place where everybody is rich and then reach out to the people you want to. Don't make it easy for them to find you.
 
Yeah right, I like that they are saying they plan to stay and live in their little community. Good luck with that, they will have to run and hide a lot faster than what they think.

People say the easiest way to ruin your life is to win the lottery.

That's only if you aren't enough without it. If you're always miserable, winning the lottery isn't going to change that.

I heard a good interview on NPR with a woman who runs a consulting company that advises lottery winners. She said they want 3 months with a winner before they go public, and do detailed coaching of how to handle the money. Compartmentalizing themselves and the money they've won is integral to a good life after winning a huge bucket of money.

Buy me a box at Kinnick and to hell with the rest of it! Somewhere warm in the winter.....and life would be good!

How much does that company get for such guidance?
 
Life is too short spending your days making someone else money if you have total financial freedom.

A couple who won a big one still live in Fort Dodge...that ain't a big community and they seem to have done well.

I've always said it would be a difficult decision....whether to call in to let them know I quit or just let them figure it out when they never see my face again.
