Lotto winners might easily lose all the money they won if they did not manage it well. Some of them even paid the financial planner to help them using the money, some of them went broke after a while due to the unwise spendings. However, some lotto winners are proven to be smart – they use the jackpot prize wisely.
Here are 8 lotto winners who are still rich:
- Lisa and John Robinson – The couple won Powerball jackpot of $327.8 million in January 2016. When they claimed the jackpot, they said they will not change the way they live. In 2018, a reporter visits their mansion and they still manage to store the jackpot.
- Maureen and David Kaltschmidt – The Kaltschmidt won $327.8 jackpot back in 2017. They plan to continue living their modest lifestyle and buy a car. They are currently living in their $300,000 mansion in Florida
- Marin and Mae Acosta – The sweet couple won the jackpot in 2016. After they won, they chose to share it with charity. Both of them live in low profile and still have the remaining jackpot until now.
- Mavis Wanczyk – A day after claiming her $758.7 million jackpot, Mavis quit her job and keeps on living a low-profile life until now. Not many news heard from her except some scammers who used her name for charity.
- Gloria MacKenzie – This lucky woman won $590.5 million Powerball jackpot in 2013. She was reported to buy a seaside mansion worth of $1.2 million in Florida. She also donated $2 million for a high school and share the winning with her son. Although she managed to keep all the remaining fund, she chooses to keep her privacy and stay low.
There is a similarity to the five lotto winners above, they all choose to stay low profile, not to expose their life to the media too much. Probably, this is one of the keys to stay rich after winning the jackpot!
