Guarantee she'll be broke within five years, if that. She's very awkward too.

Hater's gunna hate...

I do agree, stupid move collecting the winnings without talking to a few financial advisers and/or lawyers first. At least they collect the taxes upfront so she can't go full Mayweather. Definitely would have went the route of setting up a trust and claiming it anonymously though.

A hater? Please! Would I have liked the money? Of course. Someone dumb enough to claim the biggest single winning purse in history a day after they win it, though, is a person who won't have it a couple years later. Bet.

Besides, there's a ton of weirdness circling this one IMO.

Edit: After rereading this I realize this sounds very much like a conspiracy pitch, but I assure you it's not. Just pointing out how out of the ordinary this particular winner seems. Lol

That's actually very smart of her. I truly hope it lasts the rest of her life (her money, not the car lol).

I heard somewhere that her husband was a firefighter and was killed in a drunk driving accident as a pedestrian. Some guy hit and killed him and then ran.

That's truly tragic and saddening if true.

You'd be surprised. It would be unprecedented for sure, but isn't everything these days?

Jack Whittaker won almost $100M after taxes back in 2002 and is flat broke (or worse) as of today. Granted that was 15 years ago, I don't know when he went broke, and this woman has triple his money, but still.

I'm really not hating, I wish some of you would get it together here. Lmao

You don't put a qualified team of financial and tax experts together in less than 24 hours. At least not one that knows how to handle an instant $330M windfall.

Again, since saying it before wasn't clear enough; good for her and good luck. I truly hope she retains her wealth.

It would take me a week to find a goddamn lawyer worth a shit that wouldn't be out to rape.

And that's just one part of the equation.
