HOLLA AT YA BOY!! 19 YEAR OLD SOUTH CAROLINA DUDE WINS $35M LOTTERY JACKPOT!!


 







May 21, 2008. COLUMBIA, S.C. -- (AP) Jonathan Vargas turns 20 in July. But he relied on the ages of close relatives instead of his own when he picked the six winning numbers for Saturday's $35.3 million Powerball jackpot.

The Gaston construction worker said his two younger brothers turn 12 and 14 this year; his sister will be 15 and his older brother will be 21. Their mom turned 43 earlier this year.

And the winning red ball number?

"As far as 30 -- just a lucky guess," he said Monday at a news conference announcing him as the winner.

With the win, Vargas became one of the Midlands’ most eligible bachelors. (Patricia Richardson, 43, says her son is neither married nor in a relationship.)

While other winning Powerball tickets have been sold in South Carolina, state lottery director Ernie Passailaigue said Vargas, who went to Airport High School in Lexington County, is the first winner who lives in the state.

Passailaigue said Vargas likely will take the lump-sum payment, estimated at $17.3 million, instead of the annuity that pays out the larger jackpot amount over 29 years.

Vargas -- who said Saturday was the first time he'd played the lottery -- plans to buy his mother a house and quit work, he said.

"Right now, there's no really big plans in the works," he said. The first thing he plans to do is get a lawyer and a financial consultant. He said he already has an accountant -- his aunt.

Vargas said the numbers came to him while he was at work. He was having a bottle of juice and saw that the expiration date on the bottle was his birthday. He said a voice in his head told him, "Your family is going to bring you success and fortune."

"I heard the numbers in my head," he said. "I called my mom and said write these numbers down."

He also wrote the numbers on a napkin and tucked it away in his pocket. He still has the napkin. He was holding it when he watched the drawing.

"When it got to the third number, I knew I had it," he said. "I was grateful. I was crying. It was a very emotional moment for me."

    I can't believe you guys are betting against his success already!!!
    Yes, he probably will splurge a little on a few luxuries, who wouldn't!! Let's try to give him the benefit of the doubt! He has 4 other siblings who all need to go to college, hell maybe even Mom too.
    Also if they move on up to the coast or to fancy Hilton Head Island, they'll probably experience racism! Let's have some faith in him.

    I really don't understand why they like to publish people's personal info. If I won the lottery, I'd want to be anonymous. They're setting people up to be robbed or killed or sought out by shady "relatives" they never heard of--the lottery winners info should be private.

    HE STUPID AS HELL FOR PUTTING IT ON BLAAST LIKE THAT. I WOULDNT WANT THE MEDIA TO KNOW BOUT IT. PEOPLE ROBB IN THE COUNTRY PLACE TOO. THEY WILL FIND HIM IN A TRUNK STANKING. HE BETTER HIRE HM A BODYGUARD WHILE HE AT IT.

    TheySayImNicety
    Hey, he's not too stupid. It says the first thing he plans to do is get a lawyer and a financial planner. AND he's taking the lump sum up front, the kid has some good folks around him to at least SAY that. You hear most people brag about how they're going to spend it.

    well at least he is getting an finanical consultant, but he should leave his aunt out as the accountant...NEVER EVER NEVER mix family and money...it's a deadly combo....I think it'll be gone soon though

I bet his father come back into life now lol.

    Man thats great finally a lottery winner thats not too old to spend it or a group of sausage packers. Somebody beeter tell boy 17mill ain't nothing he can reite on. he better do something smart and not trust his aunt or any other one of his relative with his finances they can screw you over just as worse as some one your paying for but at least you don't have think twice about sending some one out your family to jail
    I hope he doesn't spend it on a car and rims and other N!66a stuff.

    wow, glad to hear he has hired some financial help and an attorney. I sure would invest in owning a McDonald's or something like that as a investment and you will always see your money coming back to you or some kind of real estate. Im sure he will take care of his family first as he should. Lucky him! what a story

    ...The read that its more tax efficient to get the 39 year pay out than the lump sum...

    ...And he has to watch those financial consultants too, too many of them are known for steering people towards rip off mutual funds and annuities in order to get commissions and kick backs. I hope he is doing is research.

    Ah, I wish were me, I know exactly what to do with that kind of money, but if I were him, I would get a disguise and go incognito for awhile. There is no way I would voluntarily broadcast my winnings on TV.

    @ princesstp. There are qa lot of rich guys who aren't that cute. Which is why they treat women as disposable tissues when they get that paper.

    Hopefully dude spends his money wisely. He has younger sibling so he may want to insist that they attend college. His older sibling should further his education if he hasn't as well.

    The prob with all that money is that everybody in the family may want to retire. Even those that don't have a job. And he'll prolly want to move from his neighbourhood. I forsee home invasions and kidnapping for ransom if he stays put. I hope to join him in the winners club one day. Fingers crossed.

    Aww the typos, revision:

    ...I’ve read that it’s more tax efficient to get the 39 year pay out than the lump sum...

    ...And he will have to monitor his financial consultant because too many of them are known for steering people toward rip off mutual funds and rip off annuities in order to get commissions and kick backs. I hope he is doing his research.

    ..Ah, I wish were me, I know exactly what to do with that kind of money, but if I were him, I would get a disguise and go incognito for awhile. There is no way I would voluntarily broadcast my winnings on TV.
