I went on a binge of a different sort this weekend. After
staying up watching an old documentary on E! titled something to the effect of
'Top Ten Worst Lottery Disasters' I spent the rest of the night researching and
examining many stories of people who won tons of money, only to lose it almost immediately.
And guess what crazy demon keeps coming up... drugs. Not just any drug, but
crack cocaine. Why the hell of all the drugs in the world to abuse would you
use that one? Like the story of William Post from Oil City, PA who won
$16.2million and became a crack addict. Maybe they started at something else
but if I had that much cash flow to blow (no pun intended) I'd be using pure
powered cocaine like Tony Montana at the very most. What happened to indulging
in the finest wines? The best herb from around the world? Maybe even afford to
take a trip vacation to visit a shaman and have an Ibogaine experience while
recovering in an exclusive spa. But why do I keep reading "within 18months
they were hooked on crack." Then again Whitney Houston could afford all of
these luxuries and she was the world's best known crackhead (although a highly
talented one). Houston was known to carry around an elegant $8000 handmade
Hermes purse from France with a secret pocket for her crack pipe. So if you won
the lottery what kind of drugs stuff would you buy?
