I Won the Lottery, but I don’t have the money yet. I want to buy stuff.
Sunday, April 24, 2011
Today is a tough one. I know I am a Multi-Millionaire, but I don’t have the money yet. I want to get online and start spending money on all the things I have ever wanted. I can’t do that though. There is always that chance that I will not get the money. Maybe I have read the numbers wrong, or something happens on the way down there to claim the money. Any number of things could happen. I don’t want to spend the money before it is in my hot little hands.
The other problem that I am facing is, “Do I tell my friends and family that I won the lottery?” I am so excited about being rich, but I don’t have the money yet. I also don’t want a lot of people coming around just because I have money. I know I am going to be contacted by relatives that I have not heard from in years just because I have fallen into some money. The same fact will be true of my friends. How many of them will start coming around more often just because i am rich. It is a sad fact, but it will be true.
I think today I am just going to take myself out to a nice reasonable dinner. There is a steakhouse down the street that I have not been to for a while. They have the best fried onion blossoms I have ever tasted. I think I can afford a good steak and a fried onion. This good dinner will only cost me $20 or so and if for some reason I don’t get the money, I won’t regret this dinner.
