one of my best friends in Fla., on the very first lottery held in Fla. missed the 30 mil Jackpot by one number, (he had a 30, and 31 would have gotten all 6 numbers) even tho he won about 20 grand, he was so very upset that it took him about 4 months before he could enjoy having won 20 grand, and he spent it all on a new pickup truck, the same day he picked it up from the state.
