I was watching this show on TV where lottery winners search for homes. This man won $9 million dollars when he bought a $1 ticket. He lives with his male partner. The heartwarming thing was that he decided to buy a house for himself and his partner for $420, 000 and one for his sister for $210,000. He also allowed his mom to retire. Too often people will end up losing all their winnings over time. I think this man is smart and values his family and friends.

Yes, it's good to see people investing their money wisely. Love the tomorrow quote, I can so relate to it! We seem to have the same weather here as you! Hugs, Valerie
Yes ive heard stories like that on TV here. BTW have you seen hellmans olive oil mayo?
I love the tomorrow quote! I'm glad to see he thought of others he cared about as well as himself.
I love the quote too! I will print it and keep it on my desk in the office! Many thanks!
He obviously cares deeply about his family. That is a really nice story.
I wouldn't mind being his sister!
It's good I have tried it!
I love reading stories where people are generous, rather than horde it for themselves for a big Harley or something.
That is so funny, re: tomorrow. :)
He is so caring and generous. Wonderful post. LOL @ tomorrow's definition.
Good for him. The older I get the more I find out - I don't need much at all to be happy - so different from when i was younger raising a family. I can't remember the last time I bought anything for the house. If I won that kind of money I would definitely help people but also have a grand time traveling.
It's always good to be a wise stewart of our money, whether little or much. This man made some wise choices.
I'm glad he was humble with it. Idiots would buy an 8 million house with 9 million earnings
It is amazing how some folks blow through their winnings. Whoosh, and it's gone.
I love your definition of tomorrow. I'm also glad that fellow used his winnings wisely.
