Fiances & Lottery Winnings

Eleanor Roosevelt authored yesterday's quote.

I always thought that men and women had the same money issues. Enough money to pay the bills and enough money to set aside for retirement. There are some out there, however, that think financial issues are different for men and women.

First up are the women:

Next up are the men:

One thing that no doubt would solve a lot of money issues would be winning the lottery. Powerball is at $133 million for tonight's drawing. I kind of hope that the women in the following article aren't going to play tonight.

Hope this is a great day for you. I'm off to pickup my nephew and his family at the airport. They are coming back from Paris Island with their daughter that just finished boot camp.

Comment Away.

The "women's money problems" are all irrelevant to me. So are the men's. I do think having a credit card declined would be horribly embarrassing for either sex, but they seem to think only men get that overextended.

There should be a rule about nobody being able to win the Lottery more than once, how's that? {g}

Hi Pat

I kind of thought the two finance articles were sexist. I think we all get overextended at times and our credit cards could get declined even if we were perfect with our credit card. There is that little thing called identity theft.

One win over a million and then banned from playing the lottery.
