Powerball winner spends $9 million to bail out boyfriend

[WilliamM2]

it was my understanding that you didn't have to pay the entire thing.

just 10 percent bond.

was his bail 90 million dollars?

You either pay the whole thing, or you pay 10% to a bail bond company that will guarantee your appearance.

If you pay the whole thing, you get the money back if you show up for court. If you hired a bail bond company, the money is returned to them, and they keep it as their fee.

She probably did not want to pay the bond company a $900,000 fee, so she put up the whole amount. If he didn't show up, the bond company would have came after her for the remaining $8,100,000 they had to pay anyways.

I am watching the show about her and the fix my life thing. This chick and her fiance are doomed, they don't have the intelligence to handle the money. Not only did she bail him out as we all know, she bought him a business, going to be hard since he has pleaded guilty in his drug case and it going away for 7 years, so the business is on her and in her name. She is also living on a plantation she bought, while 3 of her kids are in Seattle with her mom who is raising them, her finance also has 3 other kids, anyhow if anyone should win the lottery, this chick isnt the one. The even funnier part, she claimed the ticket, her mom gave her the money and the numbers, after listening to her mom speak, I can see where the low IQ came from.
