This is my story, a true story of how my life changed since winning the lottery in April 2006. It includes the controversial reality show Million Dollar Christmas, which aired December 2007. That reality show featured four out of the thirteen lottery winners (we were dubbed the Lucky 13), who consented to being filmed for a reality show. The show was about our lives as we prepared for our first Christmas as millionaires. Out of the four stories, my story was the most talked about throughout the country. I received both positive and negative feedback from people across the United States. My story in this book includes the love I received, the hate, the hopes, and regrets that come with a life-altering change.

Book Synopsis Life Lessons from the Lottery by : Don McNay
Download or read book Life Lessons from the Lottery written by Don McNay and published by . This book was released on 2013-06 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The world is an increasingly complicated place, but one rule has held true for centuries: People who have financial security control the destiny of people who don't. People who are financially secure live longer and healthier lives. They have the freedom and independence to pick what they want to do for a living, where they want to live and to create a financial legacy for their families and causes they support. So why do so many people who "have it made" run through their money and wind up broke? Why do the majority of lottery winners, injury victims, professional athletes and people who receive an inheritance run through it all so quickly? A better question: How do you keep it from happening to you? How do you protect your retirement, injury settlement or inheritance in a way that will keep you financially secure for life? In his fourth book, best-selling author and financial guru Don McNay offers concrete solutions to those questions. McNay draws upon his internationally recognized expertise on what to do when you win the lottery and his 30 years experience as a structured settlement consultant to show people how money can provide them with happiness, security and peace of mind. Although McNay has a strong academic background with two master's degrees and four financial professional designations, the book is written in a style that everyone can grasp and understand. He breaks the book into five sections, based on the five rules of thumb that he gave to lottery winners in his 2008 bestseller, Son of a Son of a Gambler: Winners, Losers and What to Do When You Win the Lottery. McNay said that his book is about financial freedom. "Real freedom means stability, security and independence," he said. "It means never running out of money. It means never having to work at a job you hate, because you can't afford to quit. It means never becoming a slave to your creditors. It means having control and stability in your life." Life Lessons from the Lottery: Protecting Your Money in a Scary World is the road map to finding that kind of freedom.

Download or read book On Life's Lottery written by Glyn Davis and published by Hachette Australia. This book was released on 2021-01-27 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Birth is a throw of the dice. The consequences last a lifetime. We like to think of Australia as the land of the 'fair go', a land of choice and equal opportunity. But behind the facade of meritocracy lies an uncomfortable truth: much of your life is already decided by the lottery of where you are born and who you are born to. Entrenched inter-generational poverty, like the property of the wealthy, can be handed down from parent to child. With one in eight adults and one in six children living below the poverty line in Australia, Glyn Davis asks the question: If life is a game of chance, what responsibility do those who are given a head start have to look after those less fortunate?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dale Walker won the lottery, not the Power Ball but the Vietnam War Draft lottery. Being a draft dodger was not an option in his family. They believed in the old-fashioned virtues: God, family, and country. Did he want to go to Vietnam and perhaps be killed? No, but if his country called, he would serve like all the brave men before him. He had his life planned out: work for a chemical company, marry his girlfriend, build a home and live the "American Dream." When his birthday was the number one pick in the Vietnam War Draft Lottery, all those plans changed. Dale married his sixteen-year-old sweetheart, served at the Army Intelligence School and overseas in Germany. His exciting Army career had its ups and downs, from winning "Soldier of the Year" to making lifelong friends, to medical emergencies and assisting Interpol with drug smugglers. This fictional novel was inspired by actual events in the lives of the author's family and the many blessings along their journey of serving God and others. Reverend Dale Warren, his wife Jane, children and grandchildren live a blessed life in the Lowcountry of South Carolina. While serving in the Army at the Intelligence and Electronic Warfare School and overseas, he completed a BS and MBA with honors. He returned home living the American Dream. When God called, he sold the family home to attend seminary and serve over twenty years in ministry. He has received many awards and honors: graduating Magna Cum Laude, being named an honorary citizen of Tucson, winning the Paul Harris Award from Rotary International, and was appointed by Governor Tom Ridge to serve the community.

Book Synopsis The Birthright Lottery by : Ayelet Shachar
Download or read book The Birthright Lottery written by Ayelet Shachar and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2009-04-30 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The vast majority of the global population acquires citizenship purely by accidental circumstances of birth. There is little doubt that securing membership status in a given state bequeaths to some a world filled with opportunity and condemns others to a life with little hope. Gaining privileges by such arbitrary criteria as one’s birthplace is discredited in virtually all fields of public life, yet birthright entitlements still dominate our laws when it comes to allotting membership in a state. In The Birthright Lottery, Ayelet Shachar argues that birthright citizenship in an affluent society can be thought of as a form of property inheritance: that is, a valuable entitlement transmitted by law to a restricted group of recipients under conditions that perpetuate the transfer of this prerogative to their heirs. She deploys this fresh perspective to establish that nations need to expand their membership boundaries beyond outdated notions of blood-and-soil in sculpting the body politic. Located at the intersection of law, economics, and political philosophy, The Birthright Lottery further advocates redistributional obligations on those benefiting from the inheritance of membership, with the aim of ameliorating its most glaring opportunity inequalities.
