[QUOTE="farmerjan, post: 1600648, member: 25884"] Yeah, you hear stories all the time about people who win and then lose it all and are worse off than before. A farmer here won something like 5 or 8 million about 10-15 years ago. He retired from his full time job, but is still farming, does custom baling and stuff, buys and sells some equipment, buys feeders, and then sells them after they get to a his target weight. The neighbor who won the 200,000 had to pay off taxes and stuff against some family property that he inherited and still works but at least is more comfortable. Didn't go out and spend it all at one place type of thing. I cannot imagine spending and going through millions of dollars like that. Guess I am too conservative. I would have a housekeeper though, as I would rather be in the barn, than dusting in the house!!!!! [/QUOTE]
