Man Leaves Wife After Winning Lottery

I was reading a story this morning on CBS4 about a man who won the Florida lottery back in 2007. The story, however, is more than just the share of the $19 million lottery he won with 16 of his co-workers at Miami International Airport. It’s quite bigger than that. The man wins the lottery and leaves his wife who, unfortunately, is now facing a foreclosure on their home.

Lottery Winner’s Wife Faces Foreclosure

Donna Campbell, like many people across the nation, is facing mortgage problems and homelessness. Now, the woman whose husband left her after winning the lottery back in 2007 is set to be evicted from the home she once shared with her husband, Arnim Ramdass. She has until Tuesday to pack her belongings and move out of her Miramar home.

Winning the lottery is huge. If you manage your money wisely, you may never need an installment loan to make ends meet. I have never won the lottery, or ever tried to for that matter. But if I ever do hit the lottery, the first person I would run to would be the person who matters the most to me. That someone would have to be the person who shares just about every moment, every penny and every ounce of love and struggle with me. Basically, that person should represent “my other half.” Then again, I guess Donna Campbell didn’t matter as much to her husband as she should have. Whatever the case may be, there’s no denying Arnim Ramdass is a crappy husband, a dirt-bag, and an exceedingly selfish individual. Nothing more, nothing less.

Where is Arnim Ramdass?

So far, no one seems to know where Arnim Ramdass is, especially the woman he vowed to spend the rest of his life with. Donna said she didn’t know her husband had won the lottery until a postcard arrived in the mail and, thanks to the almighty Google, Donna discovered he was, in fact, a lottery winner. Before she had the chance to formally address the matter with her husband, Arnim Ramdass disappeared and is still nowhere to be found.

Donna Campbell is reportedly filing for a divorce and is seeking half of her husband’s lottery winnings. I mean, the man not only wins the lottery and leaves his wife, but he also stopped paying their mortgage. Now their home is foreclosed, and poor Donna is being evicted with nowhere to go. Hopefully, she’ll be able to get some help with an unsecured installment loan. Until Donna Campbell gets the chance to burn Arnim Ramdass, however, she will first have to figure out a way out of this mess – alone.

    I didn't hear about any children or any disability that would have made it necessary for the wife to stay home and veg. I don't see any wear-and-tear on this lady. I heard her, on an interview, say that her husband told her she could spend his hard-earned $$ on whatever she wanted. Didn't anybody ever teach this lady how to put $$ in the bank for a rainy day? Maybe he used his lunch $$ to pay for his ticket; or do you think she got up to make his lunch??

    This is hilarious. I’m sure she had it coming to her. And it seems to me (and most intellectuals who can’t spell) that this was long in the making. I’m sure he had been gone long before the money. She seems to me a whore who is greedy.

    Legally, half the money is hers. Also, legally, HE also faces foreclosure. Too bad they didn't go looking for him earlier. Now that he owes money to someone other than his (legally insignificant) wife, maybe that will get the law to do its job! The last thing she should do is filed for divorce. She should file for abandonment and be sure he is liable for his half of the expenses and foreclosure penalties, not to mention getting her half of the winnings–that ought to help her get back on her feet. She could hire a PI since the law isn't interested, but hopefully, the bank will look for him for their money and save her a few hundred dollars.

  7. Joe says:

    She should be able to file abandonment charges, I would imagine. If he just up and left her, with no one knowing where he is, then that is abandonment.
