Yeah.. lucky for me I have a girlfriend who isn't about money.. but is for keeping a roof over our heads, food, bills paid. And leftovers for saving and a little bit of fun along the way.
My favorite was this episode of this husband and wife and the wife said “if this is going to change us and how we feel about eachother let’s just tear this up and not turn it in”. After they found out they won. I love that
He has OPPORTUNIST written all over his face. She had to tell him that she has MONEY! If I was in her shoes.. No Personal Trainer would know my Personal Business of how much MONEY I have..
@@Fourtune1or if you like them that much just pretend regular salary for a while. Be "tight on money" and show spme struggle a few times, like before you won. If you are judged during that you know who you are in front of
@@killaseason82damn not surprised he seemed like a snake 🐍 and fake plus men that look like him never usually choose women that look like her unless there are ulterior motives
@L.L.99. yup waiting on her dad to die so she can get what he leaves her cuz that African dude cleaned her out lol me n my ex use to troll him on Instagram but he blocked us
Don't buy luxury cars. Hire them as and when you need, but have a runaround for your day-to-day business. Don't buy a jet, hire one when you need. Otherwise it's poor money management to splurge on so many things that depreciate without moving.
Fly commercial or if you don't like to wait then like you said book a private jet. Maintenance, keeping park fee, fuel, pilots,and landing fee. 5 million is a big percent of her money.
This is really sad and embarrassing in regards to Cynthia...She should have gotten help because obviously she didn't know how to handle this much money. Kudos to her for getting her Brother's children though.
@@garystinten9339a monitoring spirit is a demonic spirit that watches you and take information to give to another spirit that will give you negative outcomes in life. The monitoring spirit does not really cause affliction but it gives your info to a spirit that will give you some type of negative outcome. Like delay, backwardness if it sees you making any progress, sickness, relationship issues etc. all this to cause trouble in your life and prevent you from progressing moving forward in life.
God bless Cynthia I’m sure she’s doing well I’m sure she got things as an investment & she will not starve no matter who was hoping she would people are always trying to down others when they are envious smh.
Cynthia's partner IS an opportunist rather a partner. I can't believe he thought he deserved a Bugatti for a wedding gift. She seems like a sweet person but the spending habits and the desires for a lavish lifestyle will bankrupt anyone.
I would’ve just got my tiny house lot and the pink Range Rover and stayed single lol 😂 maybe a pool a fence hot tub landscaping and get my body done lol rest saving and never go anywhere
She does seem very sweet and loving but when she elected to be a foster mother, her first priority should have been herself as the caregiver and the children. She bought 2Bentleys as family cars and spent thousands on designer handbags. She seemed mature and intelligent but her actions were past crazy.
I literally gasped loudly when I read that shes now broke and filed for bankruptcy... it happens so so often. You get 22 million and your FIRST thought is, let me buy 500,000 worth of cars that will depreciate immediately as I drive them off the lot. 10 million into property would net her around $60,000 a MONTH in passive income. MORE than enough to live off of for the rest of her life... insane. Make sure you all learn how to invest just incase this happens to you as well.
I looked into annuities at my age with 5 million life paid 18k per month for life. 5 year annuity paid 55k per month. That's at my age. Just played with numbers a bit. It's there. You just need to shop around for the best wealth and financial advisors. Wasteful spending I thought of top 🙄
I heard she was into giving charities. And then she made a movie studio or had a movie label or something. I don't think she overspent she just put it the wrong places
Man I just want a nice home on some land I own, set up trusts for my children, a nice SUV and live comfortably with my children and my mother… I feel so bad for Cynthia. I could tell that man wasn’t really for her. I hope she’s doing well
@@jason4275that’s why you don’t tell nobody 😗 I don’t care what the situation is, you won it, it’s yours and they don’t need to know you got it! It boils down to the winner and what they want to do, if their family members deserve it and need the help, they should lift them up! The minute mine try to treat me as some sort of cash cow is when I cut off contact!
No wonder Cynthia went bankrupt. With only $22m, who has a massive house, half a mil in cars, $100k in purses, $100k in art and is shopping for a $5m-$8m private jet & Loneray's Bugatti? Very poor money management.
I read that Cynthia ended up bankrupt a few years later. She was generous to the point she gave everything away. Nice person but poor at managing finances.
i have heard contradicting reports about her. I heard that she was bankrupt. But others she was doing just fine. She did an interview with Timothy Schultz recently where she seemed to be doing well so IDK.
I’m pretty sure that you’re grown so you should already know that just because you filed bankruptcy doesn’t mean that you’re broke at all and its different kinds of bankruptcy that people file who knows she could’ve just wanted to get her credit back clean.The whole world knows 50 filed for bankruptcy a few years back and we clearly know that he’s not broke at all.Happy New Year
No one should be buying those expensive cars, jet, or whatever. I wouldn't have spent that much. When I win, I'm going to make sure I pay off my mortgage and debt. Pay for my daughter to finish college and open trusts for my children and grandson.
Everyone in the comments are talking about how Cynthia filed for bankruptcy, but just because someone files for bankruptcy doesn’t mean that the person is broke. As of 2023, her net worth is estimated to be $20 million.
That’s true, but she was left with $22,300,000 after she split the $67,000,000. It’s highly unlikely that figure is accurate, since she started a production company and bought property and cars worth millions. Nonetheless, her story of winning is both inspiring and cautionary.
Yep.. and you could see she was eyeing him off about certain things too.. as for Bugatti.. I would have bought him a small runaround and bought a fake badge off eBay and told him.. you EARN YOUR BUGATTI
Cynthia split the ticket with her dad and another brother. They all got 22 million. I don’t know why she would do that as she took care of all the deceased brother’s children. SMH 🤦🏽♀️ that’s a shame.
I wouldn't give my lowdown dirty siblings ish. They wouldn't even know I hit!!! 😂.... She most definitely was generous to a fault. She shouldn't have given them that much. Maybe 5 mill a piece and invested the rest to keep that money coming in.
@@garystinten9339 Right... I know for a fact it's only 4 people I would look out for if I ever hit. Most of my siblings have been nasty to me, stole from me, etc and I wouldn't bless them if my life depended on it. Damn scoundrels!!! 😂
I love how Helen and the Foote Family focused their initial spending on more basic things like better housing and more reliable vehicles. I would want to do the same thing Helen did, pay off the home and car first, totally makes sense. Now she has a load off her shoulders and can really focus more on enjoying her daughters, especially while they're still children.
This is a prime example of what not to do when you win money like this ! Just spending it on shit you don’t need. Now she doesn’t have that money anymore getting caught up in the hype smh 🤦🏾♀️
What she needed to do was not have that guy in her life. He was only there for the money, and he encouraged her to spend money on him. She needs to know that once she levels up; she needs to drop the dusties and go find a rich man with the same lifestyle as her. Someone that can help her grow, someone who’s wise
@@chelsee_bbtte841yeah and get pre and post nuptial agreements in place so the marriage is just that.. a marriage.. not of convenience, but a marriage of love.. because finances don't come into love.
Cynthia went to the jewelry store-walked out with nothing. She went to buy a jet-walked out with nothing. She went to buy two cars- walked away with nothing. I don’t think she was spending as much as she wanted to have experiences. Hopefully she’s okay, because y’all are dragging her in these comments.
Good life to you Cynthia, you truly deserve this money! What a beautiful gesture for you to take on the care of your brother's children - a true angel ❤❤
Not that she couldn't afford a jet,she jus didn't need 1...along with all the cars ..far as property goes that was a gd investment she could of made money off the properties
Currently Cynthia is recovering from brain surgery I believe. She gave a interview a few months ago with Timothy who won 25 million in the late 90's I believe. I wish her full recovery.
Lanre was full of 💩!! To this very day; they are not together. I suggest to the WINNER reading this. Please seek GOD for wisdom and guidance to be a good steward of your money🙂
N me 2 ,which is none.. cause I have no frds. other than my son's God mother n she's more like a sister n will definitely get sum of the $ n my immediate family
Jesus Christ, a 112 million prize turned into 22 million, what fuck is this? This seems like robbery. God bless all lotery players and winners around the world 🙏
@@guilhermecairo9559be aware of cryptocurrency for now and always will be a volatile asset and like anything is subject to fold at a moment's notice..
Lauren was only with Cynthia for her money, who the he'll asks a woman to buy them a Bugatti or a Jet , get real, Cynthia you were as gullible as they come, you never buy a man more than he can afford to buy for himself.. What Rock were you living under???
I don't know if she bought a plane. But the 5 million is almost a quarter of her money. If you just spend like there's no tomorrow. Tomorrow there will be no money.
22 million was her portion and the private jet was 5 million? All the senseless spending...I wonder what an episode featuring her today would be. And with Lonray, she isn't 1/2 of a power couple. just a power spending couple. Where's the investments and financial planning?? She has her brother's 5 kids!
I do not desire big name Toys. It's ridiculous ...with my wealth id retire My siblings early ...pay our mortgages...kids college travel explore and i'm good to go. Id make the proper investments To build wealth for future generations... But to each their own
As you said, everyone has a different view on how they would want to spend the money. Enjoying luxury should not be taboo or anything to feel guilty about, but management of that is certainly important. We all have different backgrounds which influence how we would want to spend the money. Some grew up without travelling, so might want to spend a large portion of their money doing that. If you didn’t come from money whatsoever, then you would certainly splurge on expensive cars or the like. The only problem is when that spending gets excessive. But these stories are definitely both inspiring and cautionary!
Helen and Dwight's stories brought tears to my eyes. They could provide for their families so much better. Wouldn't it be nice if the big prizes rather than $200 Million for one person could be $500K for 400 families.
Dude wanted a Bugatti Veyron which is a $2 million dollars hypercar and it cost $42k for a new set of tires and $20k to $25k for an oil change. Dude crazy as hell. It's her money not his.
The proposal in the back of the taxi made me scream bloody hell!!!! Never say yes to a bullshit proposal, if he can’t take the time to plan a proper proposal it says it all!!!
If Loneray had not been With Cynthia for a long time there isn't know Reason for Cynthia to get Married too him because Loneray Sure Would Act Right everything Would be Right because you are Rich now."
She didn't lose any weight, just gain more. I'm glad she hasn't sent under the knife. Hope she stays blessed. She deserves it ,adopted the children, and broke her family down. Make good decisions
She was too extravagant and also investing her money into businesses she knew nothing about.That's why she went broke and also ended up filing for bankruptcy. She would have had a financial professional invest that money for her into safe bonds and annuities and she'd be making about $70,000 to $80,000 per month.
Yes, but you can buy bonds yourself, there’s no need to hire someone for that. Securing your money in banks is going to be the trickiest part of that kind of windfall.
Flying private isn’t too bad if you get into fractional ownership or charter, but buying a $5-$8mil jet w a $1.5mil/year fixed & operating cost is absurd, unless you’re over the $100mil net worth mark.
I couldn't agree with you more. Even Missy Elliott said she wouldn't buy (or I think even rent!) a private jet for herself because she wasn't about those maintenance costs. I thought it would have been painfully obvious to Cynthia she couldn't afford a private jet. Boy was I wrong!!
@@Seachange01120 I hope it was done for the show and she really wasn’t that stupid! Like that $300k ring. But she did have a purse that cost that much so who knows!
😊 manifestation is real if you can vision it picture it see it in your mind but the key is to have faith and YOU are guaranteed to get anything you want there's no limitations in life PUT GOD 1st and watch HIM blow your mind.
Thanks to Cynthia and all the others who "lost" their windfall or made very poor financial choices, we can learn from their mistakes. Also, her brother literally died (before she won the money) we you can't blame her for putting people before money and giving much of it away. She doesn't know when the next family member could die, which would explain why she's split it with them.
