Reviewer: A reader
The book "On Winning the Lottery" is an account of one family's experience, both before and after, of winning the Illinois State Lottery. The book includes their personal philosophy, method of picking numbers, legal details, distribution of winnings and their future plans. The book appears to be the first documented account of a lottery winner. It would be useful reading for both the interested, as well as, present or future winners.
Well-written description of life before and after winning, December 14, 1998
Reviewer: A reader
Maureen Baldwin has wrtten a description of life before and after winning $13.5 million. She and her husband, retired teachers living in a small town in northern Illinois won the lottery in 1996. Winning changed their lives forever, but they were determined to avoid the mistakes other winners may have made and to hold fast to the principles that have always guided their lives. The book answers the many questions they were asked: "How did you do that? What was it like? How to you feel?" She describes in detail the system her mathematically-minded husband Doug used to select the winning numbers. This well-written book is also attractive, physically well put together. The graphics are interesting, and the cover is eye-catching. In the introduction, Baldwin writes, "...it was our optimistic attitude toward the use of our good fortune and our desire to share it with others that has given us our greatest joy." After you've read the book, you will share their joy and realize that nice things really do happen to nice
people.
