So what if a complete asshole wins the $640 million today? You know, Like Nadia Suleyman, Casey Anthony, Gerorge Zimmerman, a KKK chapter, Mitt Romney… Wouldn’t that suck?? 😃 Who do you guys think would be the worst winner of the loot? ---

> [@Locrian](#): > > Ray Comfort, Kirk Cameron, Bill O’Reilly, Frank McCourt… I was beginning to wonder what you had against the Irish novellist, then it hit me… What would happen is that the jerk get’s $640 million to play with a couple years. And then, because they’re idiots, bankruptcy ensues. ---

Heh. My boss. He’s the sort that thinks he’s just as broke as the rest of us, not realizing that _if_ he’s broke it’s because of his five cars, constant house remodeling, expensive taste in food and wine, and multiple long vacations to every part of the United States. This years birthday vacation of two weeks in the Florida Keys being the latest. Uses the store as a piggy bank, and says we aren’t doing well enough to justify raises despite ever increasing business that he brags about to everyone that isn’t asking for a raise. The guy who honestly believes that he’s doing us a favor by letting us work for him. He would be the worst winner of the prize. Hands down. It would be proof that there is no force for good, no karma, no cosmic sense of justice. No god. ---

Whoever wins it will be a jerk at least 48 hours afterwards. ---

To be a jerk, I’d probably buy the rights to all TV shows with a cliffhanger season ending and not show them ever again! I’m feeling lucky. How much do islands go for these days? ---

I was forced into a pool by everyone at work. There is no way that I wanted to be the only one left if they all won. [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/what-if-a-jerk-wins-the-640-million/617316.md?page=2)
