BERIGAN Posted June 12, 2007 Report Posted June 12, 2007 A story to make you feel all warm and fuzzy!!! Quote
catesta Posted June 12, 2007 Report Posted June 12, 2007 If you bet big you have increased chances of winning big, no surprise there. But this..... "Candy held a raffle for her Charity, L.A.'s Best (an afterschool program). The grand prize was a Prius. Candy bought tickets for everyone on her staff and kept one for herself. She won! She told TMZ, "I'm gonna drive it!" The gracious thing to do would have been to allow another ticket to be drawn. Quote
T.D. Posted June 12, 2007 Report Posted June 12, 2007 (edited) The gracious thing to do would have been to allow another ticket to be drawn. Agreed. I'm the treasurer of a (small) nonprofit organization. Every year, our board of directors (and families) purchase a significant portion of the raffle tickets (merely to bring proceeds to non-ludicrous levels ...), and we fear this situation. Another possibility would be to donate the car back to the charity, but this works better for non-depreciating assets like antiques (which can be held over for the next year's raffle prize).

MoGrubb Posted June 13, 2007 Report Posted June 13, 2007 Hmmm, I wonder if Candy's looking for a husband.....just a thought. Quote
Brownian Motion Posted June 13, 2007 Report Posted June 13, 2007 My cockles is not warmded! Remember--in order to average-out Candy's incredible run of luck, thirty-seven spoiled pet kittens must be eaten alive by a hungry rottweiler. Quote
