[@MaxwellSDSU]

Through a bit of internet sleuthing, Chris is doing just fine (as of October 23, 2011). He's taken his kids on vacations, helped pay for putting a relative through college, and he paid for a new house for his parents. Best of luck to him.

[@radicalrick9587]

Sorry, but $1 million is not a lot of money these days. I use to make $1.5 million a year and after my divorce, well I'm starting over. Relaunching my biz and going to do it again.

Top man.

[@jimweda]

I'm glad these two won a huge jackpot. My only hope is that they manage their money correctly or greed doesn't set in between them. I enjoy hearing when people who really need the money hit it big with the exception of the woman who won over a million dollars and continued to collect food assistance and felt it was okay to do so.

[@IsraeliXdude]

Seems like a nice person

[@iCawPeeYou]

tasha is never letting go of that hand of his :)

[@mutley0130]

$258 million dollars. Finally bought a collard shirt. Good for him.

[@larrycastro7937]

I was wondering about that co-worker Natasha Woody, who sold that winning lottery ticket to Chris. Chris said he would give her two million dollars if he won that $258 million dollars. Does anyone know if Chris made good on that offer?

[@Antiinjustice2024]

Florida: No state tax on lottery prizes

[@larrycastro6679]

It's been a few years now since Chris won the Powerball. Chris wanted to take all the lottery money after taxes. I hope no one took all his money. There are a lot of unscrupulous persons out there. I've been playing Powerball for years and never won much of anything. Maybe one of these days I'll win big on the Powerball game. Keep the faith in God, your country and yourself.

[@popcur]

However, if a lottery winner says, that none of his money. will go to charity. That winner, will be seen as a villain. I have never heard, a large lottery winner. Fuss about the gov't taking at least 40% of the winnings.
