Its a conspiracy.
MILWAUKEE - U.S. Rep. Jim Sensenbrenner, already a millionaire and heir to the Kimberly-Clark fortune, is on a lucky streak. The Republican hit it big in 1997 with a $250,000 jackpot in the District of Columbia lottery. Then, last spring, he won $1,000 prize in the Wisconsin lottery, and he won another $1,000 in that lottery last week.
"I got lucky," Sensenbrenner said.
Sensenbrenner, 64, was born into a family that helped build Kimberly-Clark Corp., maker of Kleenex tissue and Scott paper towels, and he recently reported a net worth of about $11.6 million. He said he spends about $10 a week on lottery tickets.
The latest winnings came in a Super 2nd Chance drawing, in which people who mail in at least $5 in losing tickets vie for 10 $1,000 prizes each week. Lottery officials put the odds of winning just one time at 1 in 5,000.
Its a conspiracy.
Asshole.
wth? is he playing the lottery?
disgusting
and god wonders why people become devil worshippers
Yeah, as a politician he should know it's just a poor man's tax.
Nothing illegal about making money. If there's money to be made (or had, whatever), and you are allowed to try for it, why the not? You don't say no to getting richer just because you've already made enough; that's how you got rich in the first place!
That being said, I've gambled exactly once. Made $2.50 and quit "while I was ahead." Gambling is not fun to me.
