I asked that question earlier -- her "friends" went to the superbowl and to the islands for close to 100K of the money... (I'm so glad my donations went to something useful

I guess, like lottery winners, she found herself with a whole lot of new friends who were more than happy to help her spend the money...

The smart lottery winners are those who talk to a financial advisor before picking up the check - this woman should have done the same thing...
