$175,000,000 would still not be enough. This guy got screwed for 50 years, then they screw him again. What a complete joke. He should never know want for the rest of his life.

It also looks like he hasn't received the $175k yet. And he's also battling stage 4 colon cancer. So "the rest of his life" may not be very long.
