8. If you lost a $3 million winning lottery ticket, would you turn your house upside down looking for it. Ha! Yeah, me too. And thats exly what happened to 33-year-old Britain Martyn Tott. He recognized the numbers as his own for the unclaimed $3 million lottery prize. He went crazy trying to find it, and tried to persuade lottery officials that those were his winning numbers. But since 30 days had passed on the announcement of the numbers, lottery officials were not responsible any longer. The drive to find that winning ticket cost Martyn his marriage. He also joined an evangelical organization he now likens to a cult. But Martyn now says hes glad he did not win the money because he completely lost sight of who he was and what he believed in. Meanwhile, Im still looking for my winning ticket.\r

The caller told him he had just won the $40 million Lotto Max jackpot. Tom then finished his lunch and went back to golfing with his buddies. For seven months, he didnt tell a soul, trying to decide what he wanted to do with the money and how to avoid the press in doing so. Finally, when he realized he couldnt avoid the press for such a jackpot, he collected the fortune and told the media that his wife of 33 years had died from cancer, and he and his children were going to decide which charities the money should go to in her memory. Says Tom: Ive been fortunate enough, through my career, 44 years with a company. I did very well for myself. Ive done enough that I can look after myself, for my kids, so they can get looked after into the future. I dont really need that money.\r
