The above win has been verified to be TRUE by Revenue CANADA, as they had requested all supporting documentation of the above win from May 31, 2004, documentation of the sale of this Dream Home for $555,000 on January 4, 2008, and documentation of the sale of the Miata sports car. We sold the dream home before the market dropped- another WIN in our minds. We had the house appraised when we won, and we would have maybe got in the $475,000 range. The $80,000+ increase in equity was 100%TAX FREE - another win not listed on this site.

The last audit lasted 5.5 months, and I supplied 1300+ photocopies with ZERO dollars owed and no violations found. The Revenue Canada auditor assigned to my case treated me with respect and was only doing her job. Someone higher up was pulling the strings. A word of advice for anyone who has an audit: DO NOT let them take original receipts, because if they lose them like they have, you will be screwed big time.

I was told my lifestyle was NOT supported by my income; winning BIG on the lottery will do that - LOL. It almost seems that playing the lottery is legal, but actually winning seems to be borderline illegal or makes you suspected of criminal activities - LOL.

Getting a house, sports car, hot tub, and a lot of other toys for $100 sets off all sorts of red flags with the tax people. Putting up a site like this is like waving a red flag in front of the TAX BULL. When we downsized to a small house, Revenue CANADA wanted to know where we got the money, so supporting documentation was supplied. Our phone has been tapped many times (I will be putting a video on YouTube, showing how we knew), accounts monitored, etc. All our experiences will be shared in my second book for all to read. Do I see more BIG wins for myself? YES Do I see more tax audits, phone taps, etc, YES. I have talked to other lottery winners and this is part of the game they do not tell you. A person working for the firm overseeing the lottery I won told me when you WIN BIG you are under a microscope for years. Transfer money out of the country, expect a knock at the door. BEST ADVICE - stay legal. What you do with your newfound wealth will be tracked for years. Knowing this, would it have been better to have never started playing the lottery? NO, I knew this was part of the game and have expected it. Life is about experiences; I wanted to experience this first-hand in order to document it for a true-to-life story for a book. The Lottery Charms Story and applying for the LotteryCharms.com® trademark, 2 years and one day before the big win, gives me the opportunity to have the Canadian Intellectual Property Office web site validate part of my story, as anyone can verify this. Basically, I set out on a 2-year Wealth-Luck action plan, and hit the mark to the day or missed it by one day because of the leap year. With the current economic times expected to last maybe a few years, I hope to have a best seller. Any interested publisher please contact us.

Just as Tiger Wood's personal life is being splashed all over the media because he is successful and has money, you can bet if Tiger's neighbor did the same thing you would not be watching it on the news. The Lottery Winners List website has all sorts of stories about lottery winners and the media attention they've received.

Win Big and expect this too, as this is normal for people who win big. With all the lottery corruption at the OLG in Ontario in the news, there may be even some accusations that it is not normal for one person to win so much. My explanation - LUCKOLOGY- the belief in the ability to successfully attract good luck over and over again. The federal government of Canada has several copies of my book - 21 Lucky Lottery Tips - Regular Print and some of the products found on this site.
