Abraham Shakespeare


Another big winner, Abraham Shakespeare hit it large in the Florida state lotto for $30 million in 2006. Shakespeare lived it up for a couple of years, almost having spent all his money until he suddenly disappeared in 2006. His body was found under a concrete slab in April 2009

Suspicions turned to a woman Shakespeare was associated with who had apparently bilked him out of over a million dollars. She even convinced Shakespeare to sign over his assets to her. She was later charged and convicted of Murder . he was one of the nicest men you could meet in a lifetime .

I watched this documentary some years back. That woman was insane! bad enough that she was the one controlling his money, she wanted cut him off from friends and family. So bad that she got a voice changing device that disguised her voice to masculine voice and claimed to be him whenever they called even before he was declared missing. She started sending text messages with his phone to his wife and mother telling them that he's doing fine where he is and they should not bother to call him. His family knew something was off because he was dyslexic and he couldn't have typed those messages impeccably. The heartless woman killed him because he demanded accountability on how his money was being spent. Before she came into his life and started controlling his money, he sent money to his siblings, mother, set up businesses for his childhood friends. Madam blondie entered the equation and he couldn't even buy ordinary shoes without going through her. He thought she was helping him manage his money but she was squandering it while his wife and kids were living from hand to mouth. She had to kill him because she couldn't account for how she spent his money. On the plus side, the over 200k dollars found in her account was confiscated and given to the mother of his kids.

2. Leave where ever you were before the winning.

3. Discipline.

4. BE AN ALIEN

The problem starts with the lottery company announcing them to the world. Imagine say this kain time you win 500 million and dem come post your picture for social media. Some guys go sharply begin research your location and map to come collect their share.

Ryan Mckechnie


It seemed life was offering Ryan McKechnie another chance when the 31-year-old hit the Irish lotto in 2012 for £40,000 (about 50,000 in US dollars). A former drug addict, McKechnie had already kicked the habit prior to winning and was in the midst of raising his three children alone after their mother died of drug-related causes in 2010.

Generous with all his friends, however, the money was quickly gone, forcing McKechnie to struggle to make ends meet for himself and his family. Apparently, someone believed that he still had a stash of cash. He was found stabbed to death in his home in February 2014.

Poor guy, he was stabbed to death over 50,000 dollars that was already finished!

Jeffrey Dampier




Probably one of the most infamous lottery deaths , especially if you watch ID , he was An enterprising man, a wholey generous man , who took in his wives sisters who ended up killing him, when Jeffrey Dampier won $20 million in the Illinois state jackpot, he took some of his winnings and opened up a gourmet popcorn shop (as he was brought up as a popcorn boy ). He also lavished gifts on his sister-in-law, paid all their fees and house rents upfront .

Unfortunately, Dampier's sister-in-law had plans for some of the money that hadn't been spent. Along with her boyfriend, she helped kidnap Dampier and then shot him to death in a most humiliating manner.

he moved Crystal's two sisters, Victoria and Terri Jackson, to Tampa as well. With no means of their own, Dampier took care of both of the sisters' finances and continued to buy presents for many of their family members, including his sister-in-law Victoria Jackson (with whom he was having an affair).

Beginning of disaster

Can you imagine the little amounts being won in Nigeria. What can N650,000 or N68,000 do? No wonder most of the people I see in betting shops look haggard,

Playing betting in Nigeria is a waste of time,

Billie Harrell



In june 1997 Billie Harrell Jr. $31 million in lottery winnings after struggling working multiple jobs for years supporting his wife and three children. He was given his first payment of $1.24 million and thought that he had seen the end of his financial troubles. The beginning was jovial as always, he donated tens of thousands of dollars to his church, bought cars for friends and family, and took his family to Hawaii. Strangers began calling him randomly for donations and Harrell Jr. had to go into hiding. His lavish spending alongside a bad deal made with a lump sum lottery deal left him with much less money that he had originally won.

Shortly after making that bad deal Harrell. Jr. split from his wife, the final straw for the struggling Texan. In 1999 his son found him dead, he had shot himself in the head. Shortly before he committed suicide Billie Harrell Jr. told his accountant that winning the lottery was the worst thing that had ever happened to him.

Just within two years, 31 million dollars gone like that!

David Lee Edwards



When David Lee Edwards went from struggling ex-con to a lottery jackpot winner of a share totaling $27 million he was ecstatic, but his story is that shows the corruption that money can bring upon people. Then years after his big win Edwards died, alone, in hospice, penniless. The drug addict spent a third of his life behind bars before his luck seemingly changed in 2001. Edwards quickly became engaged to Shawna Maddux and the pair were married in a lavish Malibu wedding. In his time with cash Edwards and his wife brokered loans to party in Vegas where he would supply his entourage of friends with drugs. The couple purchased three homes together and would often fly between them whenever they felt the urge. The pair quickly spiraled downward and Shawna began to fall in and out of rehab before being involuntarily committed to a substance-abuse treatment program, but nothing seemed to work. She was arrested for stabbing Edwards with a crack pipe in 2004 and eventually the couple was living in squalor in their storage unit.

WTF! Within three years, from being 27 million dollars richer to living in a storage unit!

I don’t believe this

At the time this was the largest jackpot to be won by a single ticket in American history, a feat that prompted several issues with the law and even some personal tragedy. He spent his money on multiple things including strippers and philanthropic efforts. In 2003 outside of a strip club in Cross Lanes, West Virginia Jack Whittaker’s car was robbed of over $500,000 that he kept in a suitcase at all times. Another incident at the club got two employees arrested for plotting to drug Whittaker and take his money, and in even another car robbery he lost $200,000 in cash that was later recovered. In a strange turn of events the boyfriend of his grand daughter was found dead on Whittaker’s property in the Fall of 2004. A couple of months later his granddaughter was found dead and wrapped in a tarp, he took her death very hard and received a DUI a couple of years later.
