LUCK MATTERS, WHEN YOU ARE DESPERATE.


Rodriguez Jackpot Posted by Hello

Juan Rodriguez came from Colombia and worked as a parking attendant in New York for 20 years. He had just filed for bankruptcy with almost USD$45,000 in debts. His wife of 17 years walked out on him only to return just before he had his windfall. On Firday, Rodriguez with the last $50 in his pocket bought a Mega Millions ticket for $1 from a corner store from where he worked. That changed his life forever.

Rodriguez struck USD149 million Jackpot. After taxes, Rodriguez will still have USD60 million to spent.

Now he has many new friends and expert consultants to advice him how he will not lose his money as quickly as he gets it.

I’m not sure what the direct or indirect fees will cost Rodriguez, and I hope those fees will not exceed $60 million.

Good Luck Rodriguez and best of luck to your new found friends and consultants.

ya know, he might not be in debt in the first place if he didn't spend money on things like lottery tickets... he got REAL lucky
