Marie Holmes’ life was completely turned around when she won the Powerball lottery jackpot worth $188 million.
But not long after receiving a large part of her winnings in a lump sum, she became the subject of several news reports.
She became infamous for using her money to repeatedly bail her boyfriend out of jail. She reportedly spent $21 million on bail money alone.

quote:

I want her to do what she said she was going to do. I really feel like a warrior for Christ and people need to be accountable.”

quote:

Holmes reportedly gave an initial $700,000 as a donation to her church, but she did not complete the amount of $1.5 million.

Good Lord


This supports the theory that if you gave every citizen in the country $10 million, within a very short amount of time the distribution of wealth would be identical to the way it is now.

There are some churches that have a clause in the the membership contract that says you agree to give them a percentage of your income.

Marie Holmes spent a staggering $21 million buying Lamarr McDow jewelry and new cars as well an auto repair business.



Another story conflicts with the Elitereader, it seems bail is only one of the costs in the $21 she spent on one of her four baby daddies.
