"Cut him a check for $355K after taxes"

That's 29% for taxes. Thanks Obama

If he was homeless, how did he afford a ticket?

I wish I won a lottery that big, even though I never play.

Damn, a homeless shelter in Aspen? I am in especially if I can figure a way to stay there through the ski season and still swing the lift tickets...

did you read the article? he does work construction time to time. Could he be a drunk? A worthless member of society? Perhaps. I would prefer to think some people just got lost in the shuffle. And for once it wasn't someone drawing off their 401/retirement or so old they can't spend it

When I worked at a resaurant in BR in college, there was a homeless guy names Hawk who came in every day. Ate steak, drank lots of beer and tipped really well. He "worked" at the bluebonnet offramp

What's a homeless man doing buying scratch off tickets. I don't buy them because they're a waste of hard earned money. Slightly jealous of the 500k.

there was an old drunk named "Hank" that used to work tiger town/chimes street area when I was in college. I'm 39, same guy?
