Does that make anybody else as sick as it makes me? Apparently if you smoke long enough and get lung cancer, your earning potential skyrockets.

I'd buy some lotto tickets... with that much money, I'd be SURE to win!!!

[big4life]

I would keep working. I might even need a second job.


The taxes on that kind of money would be nuts!!!!

 

[Dougly]

Honestly, is there anyone out there that doesn't know cigs can casue cancer?

 

[HappyScrappy]

I'd become a pro golfer and start a magazine, but I can't go into any further details because I am a man of mystery.

why the fuck was that woman awarded $28 billion?? besides, how many other people have died of smoking related illnesses? i'm sure that they won't be rewarded for their stupidity. this woman kills me: she smoked, knew the risks, and was repeatedly told to stop, so she gets cancer and gets a shitload of money. obviously the cigarette companies need to be punished for putting out a harmful product, but people ultimately control what goes into their bodies. fuck going to med school, i'm going to start smoking, but i'd better smoke like 100 packs/day since it doesn't look like phillip morris is going to be around for long.

Never worry again about having to go without sex. That and become a philanthropist. I would also try to improve the medical field to eradicate as much suffering as possible. Too many people suffer in hospitals at the hands of idiots and calloused people. Morphine and heroin for everyone.

 

[the nature boy]

I would crap myself and piss on myself and have sex with models and force people to hang out with me BECUSE I COULD. And every year I'd give a bum 1 million dollars and have a camera follow him just to see what he'd do with the money.

 

[CYBERNIGG]

I wouldn't do shit. Even after taxes I would still have 10 billion.
I would just sit around watch tv, drink, smoke, and fuck the wife.

 

[Optimus B]

to answer the question, i'd go around doing random acts of kindness. like buy cars and give them away a la elvis. people would freak right out.

 

[pauly]

Donate to a WHOLE LOT of pple. Not too many pple i see would be poor.

 

[Bullit]

Give it to a variety of charities.

BWAHAHAHAHAH... as if.

This pisses me off, the stupid bitch knew that they cause cancer everone does. This is just fucked up, I hate when people do not take responsibility for their actions. Beside this lady is from Newport Beach, she already has enough money I am sure. Maybe she should get a couple million but 28billion, that is nuts.

Do you think she will ever see a penny of that or will Phillip Morriss, apeal this until she kicks the bucket? When you win lawsuites like this do they ever see the money? Just curious.

 

[manny78]

I agree Phillip Morris should pay since 40 years ago no one knew about the risk of lung cancer. In fact in the early 1900, there was virtually no lung cancer cases in the world. 28 billions is ridiculous. Why not give her the whole STate of New-York ?.....

BTW steroids are banned cause of some risks for our health.... now aren't we banning cigs as well ?
