Holy crap! My coworker hit the jackpot!!!

[neovan]

He went to Vegas this past weekend and was playing the $5 slots at the Paris Hotel and won $5 Million. Unfreakin' believable! I'm happy for him since he just got married too and he's only 28.

In other news...my life still sucks!!!

 

[imported_Tomato]

Damn... wish that was me, good for him! After taxes, how much did he win?

 

[hevnsnt]

I'm not sure. He hasn't shown up for work this past week. I just heard from one of his close friends.

I wasn't talking about you, I was talking about the newly married guy who won. I editted that in after your quote and was thinking the same thing you were.

 

[SofaKing]

Lucky ass

 

[trmiv]

Yea, I wouldn't show up either. After a nice two-week vacation I'd come back, start investing my money and start the business I've always wanted to start. Good times.

EDIT: I take that back, I would show up for a day or two. But I wouldn't tell anyone I won, I'd just start being a total ass to customers over the phone.

Customer: "Um yea, my mail is getting stuck in the outbox"

Me: "And I give two sh!ts why?"

 

[ATLien247]

How would it be...

 

[BriGy86]

yeah get somethin worked out with a lawer so his wife can't take it all away in a divorce

hahaha. but thats cool

 

[SouthPaW1227]

wow I hope he isn't your co-worker for long! I'd quit so hard I wouldn't even tell anybody....I wouldn't waste the breath to say I quit, I'd just not show up

 

[cHeeZeFacTory]

dam I knew I should've went to vegas last weekend instead of snowboarding! Is he your EX-coworker now?

 

[richardycc]

dont you need to put 3 coins to win the jackpot, thats $15 each pull, your co-worker was very lucky and ballsy!

Interesting, and in fact astute observation. We'd all like to win the lottery, but it frequently ruins people's lives.

 

[vi edit]

What's the tax rate on that? Whatever it was, he still walked away with a cool couple million.

Yeh, that'd suck.

Hopefully he checks in with a competent financial planner and uses his new found wealth responsibly.

I'd say hire a lawyer stat. After ironing out all the legal issues (possible/future) then think about investing.

he is probably busy looking for a house in vegas so he might be able to avoid paying more taxes to his current state.
