I am so sick or being a responsible person!

I've mentioned before, my hobby is entering online sweepstakes. Today I won $10,000 (here's the part of the email I can share)

Congratulations! You won $10,000 playing the T-Mobile Fave 5 Watch & Win Game!

A representative from our Player Support department will be in contact within the next 2 weeks to arrange all of the necessary paperwork that must be signed and completed in order to receive the prize. Once the paperwork has been completed the prize will be sent in the form of a check.

I scream and shout because it's an instant win game. I hurt wifey's head I was screaming so loud. [roll] My first thought is I have enough after taxes to get a FA Uzi. Or a nice 50 cal, or even a M10!! And it won't take any budget money.

Then reality sets in, so I'll get a very nice dishwasher, and 6,500 in credit card debt gone. Absolutely not complaining, the money is a godsend, but being responsible SUCKSSSSSSS I may try to squeeze a man grill with infrared sear burner out of my tight ass. :mrgreen:
2nd time in 8 months I won 10k and still no tax stamps. :cry:
Third times a charm right?

speaking of taxes... I'm sure they'll be around to collect their share (notice I didn't say "their fair share")


congrats!

i could use $10,000 right now... congrats on the win

Thanks! And yep 1k for an awesome dishwasher, $6,500 for debt, and 2.5 k to uncle sammie. Not a whole lot I like about socialist countries, but I wish we were like Canada, and prizes weren't taxed. Oh well it will still be a pleasant check to write. Much better then not having to write it at all. Still find it unbelievable to win 10k again. Funny coincidence......first was sponsered by CBS/Big Brother and Cingular and they had 11 winners total. This is sponsered by Tmobile, and have 11 winners total. I like the 11 winners, cell phone company sweeps. :mrgreen:
