Well, Iam sure most of us know about the unfortunate troubles that lottery winner Jack Whitaker, the 112 million dollar man, has faced. In addition to having his car robbed of money, and being picked up for drunk driving, there were allegations of his assaulting female employees at a racetrack. Today, however, five days before Christmas, Mr Whitaker, and his family, suffered the ultimate tradegy.
AOL News reported that Whitaker's 17 year old granddaughter, Brandi, who had been missing for two weeks, was found dead by the side of a road in West Virginia. The cause of her death is under investigation.
The article reported that in addition to the granddaughter's death, a friend of his granddaughter's had been found dead at Whitaker's home in Sept. The cause of the friend's death is still being investigated.
For a man who had such wonderful financial fortune in winning the largest lottery in history, Mr Whitaker seems to be having a record of personal tradegy, which is extremely sad.
As much as it would be nice to have millions of dollars to live off for the rest of one's life, I would rather live modestly, and have good health and life's fortune, as opposed to being wealthy like Whitaker, and having the circumstances he has had to deal with. No amount of money will bring his granddaughter back, and that is a heartbreak that Mr Whitaker and his family will carry with them for life.
