have a good head on one's shoulders
パワーボールに当選してもいろいろとあるようです。
She has a good head on her shoulders.「肩の上に優良な頭が乗っている」とはまさに文字通りで「彼女は頭が良い」、「彼女は切れる」という意味です。（GP）
In May, the mother of two attended a fundraiser at her former place of employment, Inland Northwest Bank in Post Falls. She refused to be interviewed by the local newspaper, which called the event Lahti's first public appearance since winning the jackpot.
"Privacy is still her big concern and, as a result, I don't ask any questions that would violate that privacy," bank employee Ron Jacobson told the local newspaper, the Coeur D'Alene Press. "I did tell her that she looked and sounded happier and less stressed than the last time we spoke."
Lahti agreed to help out at the Relay for Life cancer fundraiser and match all of the donations collected by her former co-workers. Suzanna Spencer, a branch manager at the bank, said that Lahti was still friendly and nice when she popped back up after a year-and-a-half in hiding.
"She is an avid dog lover and adopted a wonderful lab mix that is now one of the loves of her life," Spencer told the newspaper. "Her goal has been to get settled down before her girls' high school years. She has a good head on her shoulders and has gotten things lined up in her life."
Messages to Lahti and attempts to contact her have not been returned.
Lahti's story may serve as a cautionary tale to lottery hopefuls buying tickets to today's drawing of the Powerball jackpot. A flood of media scrutiny, requests for monetary hand-outs, and publicity typically floods winners of the major lottery games.
