A local China-based man recently had his entire life changed after discovering he had the winning lottery ticket to a whopping $30 million jackpot. As most people would immediately use their winnings to change their current situation, the man who only describes himself as Mr. Li seemed to have a different plan of action when showing up to collect his earnings in a full-blown cartoon costume. Arriving in Nanning, Guangxi earlier this week, Mr, Li stated that decided to keep his jackpot (219 million yuan) a secret from his family to prevent future high expectations and laziness.
The newly pronounced multi-millionaire spoke to Nanning News on exactly why he chose his specific approach: “I didn’t tell my wife and wild for fear that they would be too complacent and would not work or work hard in the future. Mr. Li also went on to vocalize how he locked him in a hotel room for an entire weekend in order to prevent misplacing his winning ticket. “I did not leave the hotel because I was afraid to go out and lose the lottery ticket,” he stated.
