Boy in my office won the lottery.

This is true.

I own and operate several businesses in different parts of the world. I never started them, so I can't take the credit.

Yesterday, I discovered an engineer at my california office won the powerball lottery. 425 million dollars. I found this out when someone forwarded the news clip of him holding up a big cheque.

Apparently, he quit his job two weeks after the lottery drawing. Told no one. No one in the office knew until yesterday. One lad said he e-mailed him just last week to set up a date for golf and got the reply "will be traveling the next few months. Be in touch when I get back".

Well, he's handled it the way I would have if I were in his position. Last thing you'd want is for the people you work beside to know you'd just came into 425 million dollars.

Hope it works out for him. He's now worth a lot more than me!

He was known in the office as "Burt".

Before he claimed his win, apparently, he lawyered-up and financial-advisored-up. Very clever. Perhaps they told him to go with the "B. Raymond" to throw potential fortune hunters off the trail. Cunning.

Most lottery winners end up in tragic circumstances. He might be clever enough to make it work. I'm sure he's happy to give it a go.

He'll be donated at least 50% to the state of california. He doesn't have much choice in that.

But yes, I do hope he uses his fortune to better the world and those who suffer in it.

Like long-term unemployed cripples.
