‘Mo Money, ‘Mo Money and as the saying goes “you gotta be in it to win it”, and that’s exactly what these Millionaires who already had deep pockets did–they were in it and they won it.
Despite the fact they’ve have millions beforehand, didn’t matter, still I ponder?
- Was the money they already had not enough?

To tell the truth my “what if” moment, is a list of things to buy, places to see, and bills to pay.
But if one already has the “moola” to enjoy these activities their “what if” factor doesn’t even come close to mine.
Okay, let’s get to it shall we. Some of these winners go back a bit, if you know of another millionare winning the lottery person(s), include it in the comments.
Keenan Altunis, who lived in Britain and an executive at the European banking firm Unicredit– won the New York Scratch off in 2008 at 33yrs old. What makes this even more “special” is that Keenan already a multimillionaire, was playing the “$1 million a year for life” game when it first launched, making him the first to win it.

A very recent, Brian McCarthy (August, 2011), heir of the familiar Marriott Hotel Empire, won a cool $107 million dollar Mega Millions Jackpot, Virginia Lottery. ‘Mo money for the already seriously Millionare. Not using any personal lucky numbers, he chose quick pick (letting the computer pick them for him).
Mr. McCarthy reportedly, took the lump sum which totaled $68 million before taxes, guess he need it right away!
Despite all the attention, Brian McCarthy’s grandma is unfazed by the news. “I said, ‘Hey grammy, I won the lottery,’ and she said, ‘Good for you. You deserve it…I’m making a grilled cheese, would you like one?’
