The NYT fronts a compelling yarn about a troubled Kentucky couple that won a $34 million lottery jackpot in--but still couldn't escape their demons. The husband ended up dying of complications from alcoholism in 2003. The wife, who is said to have turned her geodesic dome-shaped mansion into a drug den, died of a possible overdose shortly before Thanksgiving. Between them, they had squandered much of their fortune.
In the words of the late George Best, "I spent most of my money on booze, birds and fast cars, and the rest I just squandered."
You mean, of course, the late, great, beloved Georgie Best. And Matt Busby. Dig it.
