The Lottery

[Zetanio]

Two years ago a coworker won 2.2 million on a $20 scratch off. She called in and said I won the lottery! Not going into work anymore. Found out last week that it's all gone already LOL

People don't realize they have to actually manage their money.

Cue the statistics about lottery winners declaring bankruptcy.

Did she call you up and ask you to put in a good word for her with management?
