Michigan teen wins 500k in lottery and gives it all to his parents 

A 19-year-old Ingham County, Michigan, man who won $500,000 on a lottery scratch-off is plans to give most of the money to his parents.
"Best. Son. Ever," the Michigan Lottery wrote in a tweet announcing the winner of the large lottery prize last Friday, on St. Patrick's Day.
The teenager, who asked to remain anonymous, is going to invest around $5,000 for himself, according to the Michigan Lottery. The rest, he said, will go to his parents.
“I’m going to keep about $5,000 for myself to invest and I’m going to give the rest to my parents,” he said after claiming his winnings. “My parents have done so much for my sister and me, helping them takes a big weight off of their shoulders and mine.”
The teen said the money lifts a massive financial burden off his parents.
“It’s just incredible,” he said. “I can’t get the smile off my face.”

More than a rapper, she is a true visionary. The Decatur native started off at an early age making a deep connection with lyrics. She also has a strong bond with the Zone 6 area of Atlanta, from her music to her views on life. At the age of 6 her great grandmother made her perform at her daughter’s restaurant opening, and that would set the stage for her future. She told ReeMarkable that she had a gift. One that surpasses songs, she had the gift to transform others just by her presence. That night as a nervous child repeated the same lyrics over and over, she noticed how in touch the audience seemed to be. ReeMarkable knew from that point on that what her great grandmother told her was correct. Since then she has used her passion to continue to help impact anyone she comes in contact with.
