Did you miss the part that said he spent the summer back-packing in Europe with his girlfriend?"The story of Craig Henshaw, multi-millionaire, began one day last September when Craig Henshaw, high school teacher, went digging through his pockets for the $35 he had left to pay for some groceries. He had just enough cash to get him through the rest of the week, before the first paycheque of the new school year would come through."
An Ontario school teacher who was in that financial situations. Was he on the drugs, had a gambling problem, WTF. Sounds like a total tard. No wonder things didn't go well.
Yes, yes I did. I skimmed. Being single I don't have time to read every line, I mean it is a different girl every night, yes a picture of a different girl every night, on the internet, an endless supply.Did you miss the part that said he spent the summer back-packing in Europe with his girlfriend?
You sir, have wonderful reading skillsYes, yes I did. I skimmed. Being single I don't have time to read every line, I mean it is a different girl every night, yes a picture of a different girl every night, on the internet, an endless supply.
So now I know in what particular retarded thing he did. Adults make sure their financial affairs are in order before leaving the country on vacation.
+1. It would actually be fun (for a while at least).If I won the lottery and suddenly friends starts asking me to pay off their bills...i'd take it as a joke and tell them to fuck off...i won't shed a bill for a cable or internet bill...
heck I'd do that to almost all my relatives xDD it just seems like they're related and acquainted to me by blood only; nothing else... if they weren't blood related, i wouldn't even give them a thoughtIf I won the lottery and suddenly friends starts asking me to pay off their bills...i'd take it as a joke and tell them to fuck off...i won't shed a bill for a cable or internet bill...
Yup, that's how I read it. But I was left wondering why he wouldn't at least give himself 1 million to play with, even if that meant getting 1/20th less of an investment return.Maybe I'm reading it wrong, but it doesn't sound like the guy made out too badly.
He's being smart with the money and he still has most of it. He had to quit his job which sucks, but it's not his fault, more like all the greedy motherfuckers who tried to piggyback on him. He's made out much better than all the other lottery winners who did loan their money out, and now have none of it left
whoever wouldn't quit his job after winning say 20mil is a dumb loser without any imaginationFor fun I've read various websites in the past on "what to do if you win the lottery". One thing that stuck in my mind is that it says prepare to quit your job. No matter how hard you try there will be people who resent you and will make your life unpleasant at work. My family has known a couple of people who've won decent size prizes and from what I've been told, it brought them lots of grief too.
LEt's say his take home pay is 2000 to 4000/month depending on how long he has been teaching. Take out 1K for bills, 1K for rent, he has 0 to 2K/month. Then assume he is the average canadian and has 20K in debt. So hopefully he's putting 1K to wards that..... leaving him with 0 to 1K per month. Pretty easy to end up pay cheque to paycheque."The story of Craig Henshaw, multi-millionaire, began one day last September when Craig Henshaw, high school teacher, went digging through his pockets for the $35 he had left to pay for some groceries.
