Winner Failed to claim P173 Million Jackpot

This story happened way back 2009

Who says Filipinos are poor people? 

An anonymous lotto bettor forfeited to charity P173,918,451.60 after failing to claim the amount as his prize in winning the Super Lotto 6/49 jackpot on February 22, 2009. 

The bettor did not show up to present the winning lotto ticket within a one-year period (Feb. 22, 2009 to Feb.22, 2010) from the day the six-number combination that hit the jackpot was drawn. 

The forfeited money represents half of the record P347,836,903.20 jackpot prize that went up for grabs during the February 22, 2009 Super-lotto 6/49 draw. 

The other half was claimed by a 50-year-old Caloocan City housewife who purchased the winning ticket combination of 6-12-20-26-33-34 from the lotto outlet in Jose Street, Malibay, Pasay City. 

The P347.8-million jackpot was the highest cash prize recorded in the nine-year lottery history in the Philippines.

So who is this lotto winner who doesn't need the lotto jackpot prize money, and just give it to charity worth P173,918,451.60. 

If this lotto winner don't want to change his or her lifestyle, so be it. 

Most lotto bettors are ordinary people and I don't believe that this lotto winner is a millionaire and just donated all the lotto prize to charity.

 
If you were able to read my other story titled..  A millionaire gives it all away. 

Maybe then, this is true, because the winner just give away P173 million to charity. 

If this lotto winner has the same attitude and thinking, then for him money is nothing, and because he believes that the sole purpose of being rich is to give away money.

Anyway this is the Philippines, and our way of handling money is different, we even worship money. 

But perhaps this lotto winner didn't believe that it was possible to hit the lotto jackpot or maybe the truth is he didn't really know that his lotto ticket won the jackpot. 

Remember

No one has ever become poor, by giving.
