Money can come with blessings but not always, it can also become the knife the cuts through those relationships that are not solid enough. It can act as a fire that purifies and reveals what is inside everyone. Sometimes when there is millions in between brothers and sisters, their true personality comes out, greed or necessity is sometimes more important than that brother or sister. Stories like these are many; they plague TV shows and many real families. Luckily this is not one of those stories. National lottery

On December 15th the New York Lottery set out to make this season spectacular for some winners, on this day the biggest payout belonged to 28-year-old Edwin Zhingre of Queens Village. Zhingre won the $5,000,000 top prize on the new Mega Money Multiplier scratch-off game. Maybe it’s the season, or maybe it is real kinship that runs through his veins. The lucky winner really got into the spirit of giving when he decided to split his prize with his older brother, Mario Zhingri. Lottery numbers

Although they spell their last names differently they have always remained close ever since they moved to New York 10
years ago from Ecuador.

“My brother and I run our own construction company so we are used to sharing,” explained Zhingri. “When Edwin called me to tell me the news, I was very happy for him. Right now we really don’t know what to feel.”

Moving to another country is a very bold move and to have a brother that stands by your side through thick or thin is priceless and that is exactly what these brothers are showing. They show loyalty to each other, kinship, love, brotherhood, you name it, it is not everyone on this earth that can actually share have of his fortune with someone else. Zhingre purchased their winning ticket on December 1 at the Sarahi Grocery on Springfield Boulevard in Springfield Gardens.

The $5,000,000 top prize on the Mega Money Multiplier ticket is paid out as a one-time lump sum payment. The brothers chose to split their prize evenly, each receiving $2,500,000 (net $1,553,850).

At the moment of the ceremony the brothers were still in awe and said that they have no specific plans as to how to use this instant windfall. “We still feel the same as we did before we won the jackpot”, explained Zhingri. “We’ll take care of some of the company bills. After that, who knows?”

Isn’t it simply nice to see how people can remain to be themselves even when they become millionaires? Isn’t it inspiring to see that money can be shared and cherished instead of being the reason for which people lie, compete and make enemies?
