Man wins Ksh 22 billion, but what he does immediately after is unimaginable

Anyone who has received some unexpected amount of cash usually has three automatic human reactions

 The first human thing to do is get shocked, then the message sinks in and you start getting excited, and finally start planning on what to buy next A man won Ksh 22.6 billion, then he did the opposite of what most people would do.

 For most of us, especially Kenyans whose bosses have really been putting them down, the first thing would be drafting and sending a resignation letter, right? I mean, what is your 9 to 5 salo compared to billions waiting in the bank?Very few would do what Brad Duke, the US Powerball Jackpot Winner did when he won a whopping 220 million dollars

he woke up the next morning and went to work – his daily routine. Duke, who is a resident of Idaho in the United States, continued with his business as usual for a little over two years – TWO YEARS

– drove the same car he had prior to his windfall, and pretty much did nothing out of the ordinary, as he strategized on how to spend the money.


 At this point, you can take a breather and digest this shocker. It is very un-Kenyan to forget you have billions in the bank and still drive the same car you had – as if nothing important has happened.

Lol!By the way, the current Sportpesa mega jackpot, which started at Ksh 100 million last September, has now doubled to a record Ksh 200 million, and some change on top.


 Duke’s behavior actually has a lot of lessons we can borrow from. So, peradventure, you are the lucky Mega Jackpot winner, after you have recovered from the shock of the unexpected windfall, Mega Jackpot winner, after you have recovered from the shock of the unexpected windfall, seek advice and counseling from a trusted party on how to spend the money depending on your needs and the prevailing investment climate.


In Duke’s case, he got a good tax attorney and corporate business lawyer who he still keeps up to today. You really have to define what is important to you and develop a plan around it. Get people to help you do what you're not so good at doing,” said Duke, whose wealth is still growing thanks to sound advice from his team of experts.
