� and that's Google. If they don't have it, it probably didn't happen or it is too small to attract any attention.

I'll give it to you from the end to the beginning, perhaps if I write it like that I'll be able to understand why it happened like this. American Airlines mechanic Arnim

Ramdass disappeared after a lawsuit was filed against him by his wife and the object of it is half of roughly $ 600,000 which he kept from her.

"Here's a guy who for years has spent marital money on the lottery and at casinos, and he's always lost," Bruce Baldwin said. "And now he finally wins, and he's trying to keep it from his wife. That's pretty low."

Donna Campbell, Arnim's wife, got suspicious after he suddenly disconnected the phone and gave up the TV subscription they had and later on a congratulatory card came via mail about a new house purchase. She Googled the words "lotto" in connection to "Ramdass" and much to her surprise, she found out that her husband had won the $ 19 million jackpot on June the 20th in Florida. When confronted to the truth that she had found out, he denied and said that he had bought the ticket for his daughter from a previous marriage.

"He had been buying those tickets for years, and he never, ever said one of them was for her," Campbell said. Ramdass and his co-workers have for years pooled their money every Wednesday and Friday for Lotto tickets, Campbell said. The group opted for the lump sum payment of $10.2 million, so each got about $ 600,000 before taxes.

Because he disappeared, he wasn't handed the lawsuit papers yet by the process servers. No, not even if I try to look at it from this perspective can I possibly understand why he went about it the way he did. And I tried, I really did.
