$260 Million Lottery Winner!


this dapper looking gentleman named Solomon Jackson Jr is not probably the richest guy in his neighborhood, as he is set to cash in on a $260 million dollar lottery ticket! He was the winner of a Powerball jackpot that should keep him set for life.

Not a bad twist of fate for a retired state employee! Solomon is from South Carolina where he spent his life working hard to support his family in a government job. Always good to see that kind of karma rewarded. He had actually been going back to school in the free time that came with retirement, and hasn't said for sure whether he will return to school now. He did hint that he doesn't have a lot of need for this much lottery money and may be looking into charitable purposes for it. I hope he splurges at least a little bit with it, though! He deserves it.

Jackson, who said he has played the lottery before, appeared at a claims center in Columbia on Tuesday with I.S. Leevy Johnson, an attorney whose wife taught Jackson in high school and said he has known the man for years. But Johnson said he was still somewhat taken aback when he fielded Jackson's call Monday.

congrats brotha . U should have never went on tv or internet with your photo or name . Your life will never be the same. You will be hounded cor cash everywhere you go . I'd suggest you move away to somewhere exclusive where no one knows who you are except people in your inner circle. I'd lay low for at least 6 months until the hype dies down.

good luck. Just trust your own instincts and you wil do just fine. But remember, your real friends are the people who were your friends before you hit this jackpot and the true test of friendship is if they can still treat you the same now that you have this jackpot. (some friends you will keep others will fade out of your life with good reason). Stay strong!!

The winner of this lottery is now cursed to endless pleas for financial assistance. You will face nothing but scammers, golddiggers, and just plain thieves. Keep yourself real and grounded or that winfall will be the greatest regret of your life. If your life goes into the crapper then just remember when you thanked God, God really cursed you for a laugh.
