Winning Bad 😅

John Eric Spiby, a 80 year old British person, won the lottery a couple of years ago. His winnings were good for £2.4 million (around 4,8 million euros). Unlike people that just waste it all, John had a great plan of reinvesting his money by starting a family business. Now, a couple of years later, John is convicted for 16 years of jailtime and his son got 9 years, because the family business consisted on fabricating drugs illegaly. Apperently, he did collect 335 million euros in profits. 😅
