He never said that. What he was curious about was how would the center be able to replace an entire center of drivers within a 2 week period.
2 week period nothing!
If all the drivers won last night, I feel few if any would show up tomorrow.
Be calling in "I am sick or using opt3 day"
It would be like the Keystone Cops with Management trying to run all the routes!
Going further, imagine if all on the preload went in together and won, and none showed up tomorrow!

We'd then be like FedEx drivers, who load their own trucks.

Lots of room in those FedEx trucks, hardly any volume. In our's on the other hand,... loading them then delivering would suck.


We did it for years-----it was called a driver load. We even dispatched ourselves without any management in the building. We had a "lead driver" who was paid 10 cents more an hour to make sure all packages went out.

Winning of course. Especially if you help others with the money. :)
Yeah. Help others....

Actually my biggest plan was to build a huge indoor/outdoor soccer complex and establish a trust so interest from it could go toward funding it.

Then I started thinking more....

Perhaps that kind of money opens up boardrooms in the area to pitch a larger project. Bring in corporate money for the "Fight Against Childhood Obesity". Maybe even throw a tagine in like "Adulthood obesity is no laughing matter either." A lot of medical facilities around here. Maybe invite President Obama and his family to the groundbreaking and grand opening.

Or...

$1.3 billion would buy a lot of hookers and blow.

You would have plenty of opportunities to "help others". In fact you would have to hire security to keep the "give me-give me-give me" crowd away. The young gal that won it (360 mil) around here was bombarded with next day air envelopes from every charitable organization in the world starting the day after her name was released to the press. We delivered stacks and stacks of them addressed to her apartment for a couple of days until she gave us an alternate address.

Yeah, I'll pass on the hookers and blow. Lol. I like your other two ideas better.

I like the idea of opening an orphanage in a third world country.

I would throw them all in the trash.

You operate and orphanage in Columbia and I'll open the complex here and you and the kids can funnel cocaine through the complex where I can launder the money and send it back so that you can pay the cartels protection money. Percect. Isn't capitalism grand?!

I'll pass on that too. I've seen enough shows about life in South American prisons. Lol.

There's a website called thelotterylawyer.com and the site belongs to a lawyer who I have seen handle the affairs of a few lottery winners (some of whom remained anonymous). I have read some interviews with this guy and he gives some good advice for those who win the jackpot. He only represents clients in NY and NJ.

If I won I would definitely go to this guy because he didn't flee with the money of his past clients. And as much as the state of NJ likes to create the impression you have to be identified as the winner of a lottery, I have noticed that a few corporations (made for the purpose of collecting anonymously) have been listed as past winners of jackpots won in NJ so I would definitely try to go that route as well.

That would be one of the few times that the average Joe Schmo could take advantage of the legal premise that a corporation is a person.

I would go to nobody. I'd distribute the $$$ as I see fit.

Even if you went to the lawyer you would still distribute the money as you see fit. He walks you through the common pitfalls and acts as your frontman when dealing with media etc. But to each his or her own.
