The happy but unknown lottery winner.
Baby we can do it, take your time, do it right, we can do it baby, do
it tonight
The SOS Band
In my last book, I told
lottery winners four things: Don’t let
anyone know you won. Set up a
trust. Hire good attorneys and advisors.
Take the money in annual payment.
On June 27, someone near Cincinnati collected a $196 million Mega
Millions jackpot. The winner did it
exactly the way I outlined.
I feel like I won the lottery myself.
I’m not sure if the
winner read my book but they followed my game plan.
Unlike most lottery winners, the Cincinnati winner should have a happy life.
According to the Cincinnati Enquirer, the ticket was sold in
May, just outside of Cincinnati. Several weeks later, an attorney from the Cincinnati law firm of
Graydon, Head and Richey claimed the ticket on behalf of an undisclosed client
A blind trust was set up and the winner opted for 26 annual
payments of $7.5 million each.
Most people can live on $7.5 million a year.
Because the identity was kept private, the winner won’t have
a posse of newfound “friends” looking for a handout. He or she won’t become a national laughingstock
like Powerball winner Jack Whitaker.
