Lottery Winner Eats $15,000 Winning Lottery Ticket

From Fox News:

One airline passenger became so irate that he could not claim his $15,000 winning scratch card while on board a flight that he took rather odd action — he ate his ticket.

Read the whole weird story.

Here is a lesson on why it is not a good thing to be greedy. I can understand being excited about winning the lottery. I can’t understand why someone would get so angry that he would eat his ticket, especially given that he was flying in an airplane at the time! No wonder Paul said that the love of money is the root of all evil (1 Timothy 6:10).
