What a wonder story. He earned every penny of this money with his play the last 3 years. He seems to be a down to earth young man too. Hopefully, he will find him a good woman or girlfriend and not any gold diggers as they will soon put him on their list of potential husbands and fools to take advantage of. There are lots of fine women out there, and the average man could walk down market street at 5 o'clock and lose his mind. I'm counting on him to show the women and others that he might be from Mississippi but he ain't stupid, like another good Mississippi boy named Larry Smith (Alcorn) did in the 1980s. He needs to learn fast to be careful who he sleeps with bcause 66 million is likely to get every woman pregnant he sleeps with. No offense to the good women, who are the light of the world.
