Before you decide which Powerball numbers you’re going to play, let’s take a quick look at people who have gone BROKE after winning a big jackpot. Jay Sommers won $5 million in Michigan back in 1988. He was 20 at the time and now has NONE left. Jeffrey Dampier won $20 million back in 1996. He divorced his wife, gave her half but later had an affair with her sister and was killed by her. And Ronnie Music Jr. won $3 million in the 2015 Georgia state lottery but spent most on crystal meth so it’s gone. The point of this is to let you know, regardless of how much you win, make sure you invest so you don’t go broke! It can happen very easily.
