I wonder what you'd feel like watching your numbers get pulled and realizing that you've suddenly become rich beyond your wildest imaginations, and then half an hour later learning there are two other winning tickets and you only get 33% of the enormous prize. You're still unimaginably rich, so there's no real reason to be upset... but you'd feel slightly upset, wouldn't you? Like that guilty sort of upset, where you know you have absolutely no reason to complain, but you just can't help yourself? You're still set for life, but your share of a half-billion dollar lottery won't even clear 9 figures after taxes. What a pisser.

Yes because I imagine $100m was just within their reach!

After seeing the Cerebal Palsy things and work problems, I see tithe ...

I suppose she figures the church figured in but good for her at any rate.

Sounds like someone who really needed it, but tithe 10% ????

why not? if she uses 10% for a (relatively) good cause, it is better than what 99% of lottery winners do.
 
maybe I've seen too many scams but it looks like the people running churches live too extravagantly and since they don't report where the donations go, how do you figure out if it's going to the right cause? I see mega churches being built and I'll read about the head guy and his family doing great, maybe helping 1 or 2 people out for publicity but the donations don't seem to be put to efficient use.

Religion is a huge scam and it's universally agreed...among the non-braindead.
