Virginia Reel


Harold and Tina Ehrenberg were expecting company over Thanksgiving in their Mandeville, Louisiana home. They were cleaning the house to get ready when they ran across a lottery ticket they’d bought months ago. The drawing was June 6, and theirs was the only winning ticket. After taxes, the Ehrenbergs took home a little more than a million dollars. They intend to put the entire amount toward their retirement. “We don't have any plans to buy anything crazy or go on any big trips,” Tina explains. “The most fun,” Harold adds, “is going to be depositing that check.” The Ehrenbergs are very lucky they found their ticket when they did. If they’d waited just two more weeks, it would have been completely worthless. Moral of the story: The best time to clean up is right now. You never know what you might find.
