Sweet and Sour

Bee Careful!

If money is honey, then things can get pretty sticky at times.  Have you ever seen what happens after funeral flowers wilt and the will is disputed? 

That might be nothing as compared to when one family member wins a big-time prize.  Alleged statements suddenly become fodder for future lawsuits.

Such has occurred between the winner of a $1.35 billion Maine jackpot and “the mother of his daughter.”  She says that he vowed to share the wealth should he get that lucky. He says that she “violated a non-disclosure agreement.”  His father got in on the act by claiming that Junior “made several unsolicited high-dollar promises.”

Winning the lottery sounds great in theory, but if you clutch too much honey, you might get stung.
