Through a bit of internet sleuthing, Chris is doing just fine (as of October 23, 2011). He's taken his kids on vacations, helped pay for putting a relative through college, and he paid for a new house for his parents. Best of luck to him.
"I'mma be your Dutch uncle here. Do yourself a favor, get yourself a good accountant and a good attorney. That way maybe you'll have a little left in a couple years. Allllright." 😂
I'm happy for these 2 people they are the kinds of people you hope would win. Be careful and ignore the ones who turnend their backs on you both and enjoy folks enjoy :) congrats
By the way, they are doing well and he fixed his teeth. Also, they're enjoying life, because they have listened to the advice of their CPA and Attorney. They're good people
I'm glad for him and hope it doesn't change him for the worse. Be very careful and be cautious. This could be a blessing or a curse. God bless and take care!
Sorry, but $1 million is not a lot of money these days. I use to make $1.5 million a year and after my divorce, well I'm starting over. Relaunching my biz and going to do it again.
seems like he is overwellmed. It would be hard to decided exactly what to do with all that money. If you spend tomuch when your young like that you might not have enough for when you retire. I am really happy for him and his girlfriend. with that kind of money all the negative comments wouldnt mean a dam thing. when every thing is said and done you have still won you are the winner not the jelous ones.
I'm glad these two won a huge jackpot. My only hope is that they manage their money correctly or greed doesn't set in between them. I enjoy hearing when people who really need the money hit it big with the exception of the woman who won over a million dollars and continued to collect food assistance and felt it was okay to do so.
He said he was going to give the clerk a few million and it was caught on tape. I wonder if he went through with it, or he was sued by the clerk (hope not) but would love to have an update.
He would be broke in a day if he had hired someone to knock teeth out of the heads of every Captain Obvious that found it necessary to bring attention to him about the condition of his.
Some ppl still don't understand money can't bye love..they were together before the money what make a person think that they gonna leave bcuz of money or they looks..I wish them the best and hope they are enjoying life and don't worry about what negative ppl got to say
She shouldnt be allowed the winnings. For those of you who dont know, in most states your not allowed to play the lottery from a store that you work at. Its to prevent scamming by the clerk. Im not saying hes a scammer, but it shouldnt be allowed
Well dont lotto companies in the states like powerball do heavy due diligence (Check the date and time the ticket was purchased and look at surveillance tapes inside the store to verify he infact did purchase the ticket at that specific date and timee? Lotto companoes in Canada sure do-They check the date the time it was purchased and also if its scanned through the system the system will automatically freeze trigger an alarm dispatched to Lotto Corps Saying the winning ticket has been scanned and the Lotto Corp immediately calls The store asking to speak to the person sho scans it gets information-Then their investigators come to the store and retrieve surveillance footage with time stamps amd one of the requirements of being a carrier/seller of their lottery tickets is that they have a certain level of standard when it comes to surveillance equipment + CCTV types that are periodically maintenanced or else they do not permit a retailer to sell lotto tickets ehich hurts the retailer’s business by having lower volumes of customers coming in (theyd rather go to the retailer 2 blocls down who sells tickets amd buy their gas and chocolate bar while they check their tickets) Lotto corps here (terms and conditions) can void the win if a person working there claims it and for some reason their surveillance footage (CCTV) is not working the retaileritself in that case does not win the ~100k + for selling the ticket and the lotto officials can tie up the win and void it completley. Their surveillance cameras not working will only mean that workers at the retailer could easily be stealing, and its also a form of insurance for the retailer In case theres a robbery, which happens quite a bit in which case- the losses + more are covered. If their CCTV footage worksbut for that day it wasn’t working you can best believe the ticket will be voided if the person at the store had *bought it*. There are other measures too. Canada does not eff around lol
I was wondering about that co-worker Natasha Woody, who sold that winning lottery ticket to Chris. Chris said he would give her two million dollars if he won that $258 million dollars. Does anyone know if Chris made good on that offer?
I LOVE when poor people that need the money win it, I just hope that they don't go broke like most lottery winners. This goes to prove that god is not there when you want him, but he's always there when you need him.
@iCharmCity07 Stipulations when claiming prizes is you must show up to claim your prize, and a picture taken with the check. Especially on Powerballs. Just to show actual people win. Press conferences, like this one, are definitely optional! So I agree with you there. And this couple looks like they be in their early to late 30's. Also the actual pay out for Powerballs is HALF of the advertised win. Something they don't advertise. Glad he won.
Someone won from my home town last night his name is derrick he won the 49 million mega we gonna make history and claim the the power-ball tonight same city thomasville ga !
It's been a few years now since Chris won the Powerball. Chris wanted to take all the lottery money after taxes. I hope no one took all his money. There are a lot of unscrupulous persons out there. I've been playing Powerball for years and never won much of anything. Maybe one of these days I'll win big on the Powerball game. Keep the faith in God, your country and yourself.
However, if a lottery winner says, that none of his money. will go to charity. That winner, will be seen as a villain. I have never heard, a large lottery winner. Fuss about the gov't taking at least 40% of the winnings.
When you hear clerks win mega millions at their store, it's very suspious at the least.. Congratulations to the real winner who is still working for a living.
@ehbabbeh thats the reason why she would never be your girl. you would want her to be some one she just isnt. I think she is beautiful just because she is who she is.
say what you want about the woman, but she was with him before it all. she was with him regardless of his teeth, his job, his 29 dollars
Matin k
her teeth too
Well they got themselves straight now
And that what ppl don't understand..they starved together and now they are riches together...just be happy for them
@@victoriaallen604 yep
He's a very honest young man, and I hope they are doing well. I am excited for them, even if it did happen 7 years ago.
they are
so beautiful: ) i hope they stay happy . they were together when they had nothing:)
Finally a winner who has seen real hard times. Congradulations!!! Wish you and yours the best.
Not to hard to brush your teeth.
Anybody else notice that million was spelled "millon" on the gas station sign...lol proud to be a missourian!

LOL
I feel so happy when someone in need wins something like this ........gives me hope for myself .lol
seems like a well deserved win. guy is cool as a cucumber
He is SO calm...because he's one of the only men that knows for a FACT that his girl is never gonna leave! ;-)
The better part was that she was there for him on his "Worst" before the money
She cheated and they are divorced lol prenump for the win
seems like a nice guy
Very happy for you guys. You deserve it...God bless
I like the advice he gave him, get a good attorney and a good accountant.....plus a good dentist

I’m gonna hit the Powerball soon🎉🎉🎉🎉 can feel it
O my goodness. Wishing them all the happiness in the world. Even three years later.

I hope this is true.
Yes Chris is doing great invested and smart with his money. Great man and true friend!
Right on! I hope they are still happy. You don't need money to be happy. Mo money mo problems
I'm glad for him and hope it doesn't change him for the worse. Be very careful and be cautious. This could be a blessing or a curse. God bless and take care!
I'm so happy for them. Hope they are doing well.
Now he can buy that elusive billy bass mount!
Very happy for these people seem like they are level headed about the whole thing.
I wouldnt be that calm if i had won the lottery, Ill be going nuts
Nice to see a lower socio economic person winning the big one. Congrats to Chris.
it is so happy feeling to match and win the winning number…slow down..
I sure need just $ 1,000,000 million and maybe one day soon I will get to feel what's it's like to have financial Freedom
Hope you get it bro.
@Azazel-_xl not guaranteed at all and most these jobs don’t give u million like they give u more debt that will take u 20 years to pay back

what the hell are you talking about, she was with him BEFORE he won, he can never find that again in life, with anyone else...
That's cool for him! Awesome luck. The guy seems down to earth too. I'm gonna get my pay day by being a rock star! Yea baby!!!
Great to see a humble spirit win money. He seems like a nice guy
A beautiful story. A beautiful couple. This is such a wonderful story❤💜🤎
Congratulations! Great to see folks that really need it win it!
Finally somebody won that day…it’s been a long time but hope his enjoying the money….🤞🤞🤞🤞
Love these stories
I wonder if a customer was checking his/her number and the clerk said it's a loser.
It happenend in Arizona and the clerk got caught by video.
Life begins my brother good luck .
Invest man happy for you
Mind boggling
His life begun 10 years ago when he won
If I won that much I would sell my $200 car and buy a $500 one.
:)
:,)
:')
at 3:30 I thought the interviewer was gonna tell him get yourself a set of new teeth LOL
Haven't heard that this guy has made the news for anything stupid or died so I guess he's doing ok. Glad for him.

Its probably somone elses ticket that won but he said they lost
I love that man. He is very cline minded he deserve it
He won $258M. But this interviewer's style is priceless.
He won the lottery twice. The money and his wife. Humble beginnings have the richest lives.
I'd love it if 258 people won $1 Million each.
good for them do good with your money folks please!!!! And watch the scammers congrats from Canada
Blessings to them both 🙏❤️ God is always right on time ❤️❤️
First thing he need to do after receiving the money is go to a dentist.
The interviewer was nice enough to be the Dutch uncle warn the winner to lawyer up. Just incase the girlfriend decides to take it all.
He would be broke in a day if he had hired someone to knock teeth out of the heads of every Captain Obvious that found it necessary to bring attention to him about the condition of his.
How nice !!! just be happy & grateful for that !!!
So 10 years have passed now where is this man how is he doing?
He is doing good I read it in newspaper
Doing great, invested and as common and great of person as always was. Couldn't ask for better friend or more down to earth person!
Some ppl still don't understand money can't bye love..they were together before the money what make a person think that they gonna leave bcuz of money or they looks..I wish them the best and hope they are enjoying life and don't worry about what negative ppl got to say
My thoughts exactly madam
This is the ideal image of the lottery, people from all walks of life. Given another chance! Congrats to them!
well chris, I wish you well,enjoy your life to the fullest
good for you men don't chance you seem to be very humble

Christopher Shaw was destined to win!

so how much will he get if he takes the lump sum? how bout the annuity?

i wish you the very best from letseeitplease channel on youtube
How much does he lose on tax? What does he get if he chooses a payout over 20-30 years or what does he get if chooses a lump sum?
Mike Jones Is CORRECT!!! Stick With The People Who Starved With You!!!

$$$ Doesn't give you class, culture nor manners! You're who you were & are with or without $$$!
