The kind-hearted man is famously known for having said, I quote "I'd have been better off broke”.
The 47-year-old from Florida won the lottery on November 17, 2006.Abraham was poorly educated didn’t know anything about saving and investing, he took one lump sum of $17 million bought a million home in a high-end community. Sellers took advantage of him. He was adorned with a big generous heart even insisting on bailing out his former employer of $63,000. He met Dee Dee Moore eleven months after hitting the jackpot. This was the woman who would end his life. In 2009 the 47-Year old was buried in the backyard after being shot twice. In 2012 the court found Dee Dee Moore guilty of first-degree murder.
