Wanna meet Canada's most foolish lottery winner ... or maybe the sharpest?

This woman was supposedly taken advantage of by all and sundry.  Imagine winning over 10 Million and in under 10 years she's back in a rental and a part-time job.  Sheesh !!   Wonder how much she has put in trust for the kids.  This could also be a tax evasion trick.  Never believe everything you read.  Even at the sweeping the floor interest rates on fixed deposits, and even if this woman were to put aside 5 Million of her winnings at say 2%, she would be enjoying a cool $100,000 in interest payouts annually... after she pays tax on that sum, of course.

She has three kids by three different men and then lo and behold right after she wins the lottery she finds a man who wants to marry her.  HAHAHAHAH    You gotta read the whole damn thing if not for anything else then for the feeling of  superiority you will feel after reading about her stupidity.. If she is not evading the Revenue Canada guys, than this is one mega stupid bimbo.

What is also very interesting is that she buys a house after the big win but on mortgage. Yup !!  Go figure.

Hamilton lottery winner    fritters away $10 million
Nine years after cashing her $10.5-million cheque, Hamilton lotto winner Sharon Tirabassi is catching the bus to her part-time job so she can support her kids and pay the rent.
Nine years after cashing her $10.5-million cheque, Hamilton lotto winner Sharon Tirabassi is catching the bus to her part-time job so she can support her kids and pay the rent.
Tirabassi, 35, has gone from rolling in dough to living paycheque to paycheque.
The Lotto Super 7 payout didn’t come with a financial adviser and before she knew it — big house, fancy cars, designer clothes, lavish parties, exotic trips, handouts to family, loans to friends — the money was gone.
“You don’t think it’ll go (at the time), right?” Tirabassi says.
She’d check her account now and again, but there were always so many zeroes that she figured it was fine — until one day there was just three-quarters of a million left.
“And that was time for fun to stop and to just go back to life,” she says.
Tirabassi is happier today, she says, adding life has more purpose now than when she was shopping.
She works part-time as a personal support worker and is raising her six kids in a rented house in downtown Hamilton.
Her husband, Vinny, 35, has another three kids from a previous relationship........
........Before her win, Tirabassi had been living in an east Hamilton apartment with her three kids at the time, each from a different father.
She was Sharon Mentore then, not yet married. She had just landed a job as a personal care provider, fresh off welfare, and couldn’t afford a car.
But on Easter weekend in April 2004, she hit the jackpot, winning $10.5 million from a Super 7 ticket........
.........She bought a house, and married Vinny. They eventually had three children.
In 2006, the newlyweds and blended Tirabassi family moved to a massive $515,000 home in Ancaster. Despite the lottery win, Tirabassi took out a $360,000 mortgage on the house.
Vinny says they owned four vehicles: a bright yellow Hummer, a Mustang, a Dodge Charger and a $200,000-plus, souped-up Cadillac Escalade, Tirabassi’s baby. The vanity licence plate read “BABIPHAT,” after one of her favourite designer clothing lines.
Ancaster neighbours hated that Cadillac. Equipped with interior turntables and sound mixers, it blared hip hop in the driveway that shook their quiet suburban street.........
