Millionaires

For many, this new year has been a financial struggle, but for three people in Illinois, that's no longer a problem as they are suddenly millionaires. There's just one big problem. They don't seem to know it yet.

There are 4 people who are in Illinois right now unaware apparently that they are now millionaires. It could be you.

Do you daydream about being a millionaire? Would you like to see the reality of what your paycheck would look like if that were real? There's an online tool that will show you what a million dollar paycheck would look like in Missouri after the taxman gets done with it.

The old saying says the rich get richer and...well, the rest of us don't. That's true for one Illinois place which is suddenly home to the 4th most millionaires in America.

Talk about doing something that you'd regret pretty much ever. A woman bought lottery tickets and kind of forgot about them. A few days later, she was getting ready to throw out trash when she decided to check the tickets one more time. It's a good thing she did as one just won her a million dollars.

I was hanging around some friends the other day and the topic came up of whether or not millionaires are eligible for unemployment compensation. Not being a millionaire myself, I didn’t know the answer and nobody else did, either, since they too were not millionaires.
