This is the best idea I've read so far....next to mine. I wonder if they ship to Bora Bora?

Weird part of the Powerball winner this morning - they announced the winning ticket was sold in Watertown, MA, at a store a block from where my kids go to daycare. The place was abuzz this morning when I went by - media trucks lined up and down the street.

Then a few hours later, the lottery realized they F'd up and the winning ticket was actually sold 90 miles away. Hope the first store owner wasn't lined up to get a giant bonus for selling the winner, then had it taken away, Steve Harvey style!

My first thought was "...something ocean-going."

But then there's this.

The woman who won seems not to have taken the advice.

Also, there is a $50,000 bonus for selling the winning ticket.

Mark Cuban says always take the annuity, hire a tax lawyer, say no to everyone (because no one needs a million dollars for anything and you already know what the people in your life truly need), don't make any investments, put all the money in the bank.

Seems like sound advice to me. That said, I'd buy every E90-1 Tris Speaker card I could find.
